Evaluating InPact Intervention‐Context Fit in Resource‐Limited School Districts in Central Michigan
BACKGROUND: Many school-based physical activity (PA) interventions are implemented without adequately assessing their contextual fit, which can hinder their effectiveness and sustainment, ultimately reducing their impact on student health and well-being. This study aimed to assess the pre-implementation fit of the Interrupting Prolonged Sitting with ACTivity (InPACT) classroom PA intervention in one resource-limited intermediate school district (…
Applying the FRAME for Systematic Adaptation of a State Health Curriculum to Enhance Physical Activity and Family Engagement
BACKGROUND: A systematic adaptation of an evidence-based state health curriculum (Michigan Model for HealthTM, MMH) was created to enhance physical activity and family engagement materials but retain the core functional elements of the curriculum. METHODS: The Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Enhanced (FRAME) was used to document the adaptation, which used materials from an evidence-informed physical activity program (Interru…
Resource Realities
BACKGROUND: Comprehensive health education in schools can effectively prevent drug use and related outcomes, but successful implementation remains challenging. Contextual determinants, including intervention-setting compatibility, focus on the intervention, available resources, and leadership support, influence implementation success. This study investigates the impact of multilevel contextual determinants on Michigan Model for Health: (MMH) curr…
Aligning Organizational Priorities and System Policies to Support Implementation Scale‐Up of a Tailored Classroom‐Based Physical Activity Intervention in Low‐Resource Schools
BACKGROUND: A mismatch between organizational priorities and system-level policies can negatively impact implementation and sustainment of classroom-based physical activity (PA) interventions. The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) present methods to systematically identify organization- and system-level implementation barriers, and (2) align organizational priorities and system policies by designing multi-level implementation strategies. Thi…
Use of a Novel Theory-Based Pragmatic Tool to Evaluate the Quality of Instructor-Led Exercise Videos to Promote Youth Physical Activity at Home
Understanding the use of a pragmatic tool is a first step in the evaluation of InPACT at Home exercise videos. Our preliminary findings suggest that the InPACT at Home videos had low cognitive load. If future research confirms our findings, using a more rigorous study design, then developing a collection of instructor-led exercise videos that induce low cognitive load may help to enhance youth physical activity participation in the home environme…
A Novel Policy Alignment and Enhancement Process to Improve Sustainment of School-Based Physical Activity Programming
The purpose of the current study was twofold: (1) to evaluate the strength and comprehensiveness of district wellness policies in one central Michigan intermediate school district (ISD; 16 districts), and (2) to pilot a novel policy alignment and enhancement process in one district within the ISD to improve sustainment of district-wide physical activity (PA) programming. Policy evaluation and alignment were determined using WellSAT 3.0. The Explo…
Advancing rapid adaptation for urgent public health crises
Responding rapidly to emerging public health crises is vital to reducing their escalation, spread, and impact on population health. These responses, however, are challenging and disparate processes for researchers and practitioners. Researchers often develop new interventions that take significant time and resources, with little exportability. In contrast, community-serving systems are often poorly equipped to properly adopt new interventions or …
Longitudinal effects of Youth Empowerment Solutions
Youth violence remains a significant public health problem despite efforts to address it. We describe the evaluation results of Youth Empowerment Solutions (YES), an after‐school active learning program implemented by trained local teachers and designed to engage middle school youth in multi‐systematic promotive behaviors at the individual‐, interpersonal‐, and community‐level to make lasting positive changes within the context of institutional d…
Implementing a State‐Adopted High School Health Curriculum
BACKGROUND: The Michigan Model for HealthTM (MMH) is the official health curriculum for the State of Michigan and prevailing policy and practice has encouraged its adoption. Delivering evidence-based programs such as MMH with fidelity is essential to program effectiveness. Yet, most schools do meet state-designated fidelity requirements for implementation (delivering 80% or more of the curriculum). METHODS: We collected online survey (N = 20) and…

Racial discrimination and cortisol in African American emerging adults
Our results lay the foundation for future research on racial health disparities by suggesting that contextual factors such as neighborhood racial composition can shape the influence race-based discrimination has on health. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2018 APA, all rights reserved
Trajectories of organized activity participation among urban adolescents
Organized activity participation provides opportunities for adolescents to develop assets that may support favorable outcomes in young adulthood. Activity participation may be especially beneficial for marginalized youth as they are likely to face stressors that increase risk of negative outcomes. We used growth mixture modeling (GMM) to identify activity participation trajectories among African American adolescents in an urban, disadvantaged com…
Psychological Empowerment Among Urban Youth
Empowerment‐based strategies have become widely used method to address health inequities and promote social change. Few researchers, however, have tested theoretical models of empowerment, including multidimensional, higher‐order models. We test empirically a multidimensional, higher‐order model of psychological empowerment (PE), guided by Zimmerman's conceptual framework including three components of PE: intrapersonal, interactional, and behavio…
Predictors of Civic Engagement Among Highly Involved Young Adults
Civic engagement maintains the viability of democratic society and promotes positive outcomes for those who participate. Young adults' patterns of civic engagement differ according to the type of activity, yet little is known about the psychological mechanisms that lead to different types of participation. We tested the relationship between two types of sociopolitical beliefs (sense of agency and systems worldview) and two distinct forms of civic…
Trajectories of Organized Activity Participation Among Urban Adolescents
Depressive symptoms, social support, and violence exposure among urban youth
Depression is a serious mental health concern among adolescents. Violence exposure is a potent risk factor for depression. Social support may help reduce depression risk, even when adolescents are exposed to violence. Using a compensatory model of resilience, we investigate the influence of violence exposure and social support on depression over time in a sample of urban youth during the high school years (N = 824, 52% female, mean age Year 1 = 1…
Adolescent Resilience
Resilience theory provides a framework for studying and understanding how some youths overcome risk exposure and guides the development of interventions for prevention using a strengths-based approach. In this article, we describe basic concepts of the theory, such as promotive factors, and distinguish assets and resources that help youths overcome the negative effects of risk exposure. We also present three models of resilience theory—compensato…
