Facilitators barriers and components of a culturally-tailored afterschool physical activity program in preadolescent African-American girls and their mothers

摘要

ObjectivesTraditional physical activity (PA) programs have not been effective in increasing PA in African-American girls. Currently, there is limited information regarding the components of PA programs that drive participation in African-American girls. The purpose of this investigation was to describe the facilitators, barriers, and components of a culturally-tailored afterschool PA program that will potentially inspire the participation of African-American mother-daughter dyads.
