Food, Fun, & Fitness Internet Program for Girls: Outcome Evaluation

This is an 8 episode intervention, delivered entirely over the internet. Each episode, girls will view an interactive story in which 6 8-10 year old African American characters attempt to solve a mystery about their town. The online program will include information about healthy nutrition (i.e., consuming more fruit, vegetables, water) and physical activity. There will be two groups; one group (the experimental group) will view the interactive story and participate in key behavior change procedures, such as personal goal setting, problem solving, and self monitoring activities. The second group (the active comparator group) will view the online stories but will not engage in key behavior change procedures.
