背景：儿童癌症幸存者身体活动不足（PA）可能导致健康结果受损。本初步研究的目的是评估PA干预8-12岁儿童癌症幸存者的可行性和效果，这些儿童癌症幸存者报告每天进行< 1小时的中高强度运动（MVPA）。方法：20名幸存者随机分为为期6个月的PA干预组和对照组。所有被试均完成了自我效能感的前后测量，干预组完成了自我效能感的前后测量。分析包括可行性测量、MVPA中清醒时间百分比的变化、自我效能评分以及MVPA和自我效能的相关性。结果：确认了所有可行性参数。干预组67%的受试者和对照组14%的受试者在MVPA中醒着的时间增加了。MVPA变化与总自我效能得分变化之间的相关性计算为中等效应量（r = 0.55）；充分性子量表的效应量最大（r = 0.62）。结论：参与包括自我效能支持在内的群体干预的儿童癌症幸存者中，MVPA可以增加。
Background: Inadequate physical activity (PA) in childhood cancer survivors may lead to compromised health outcomes. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the feasibility and effect of a PA intervention in childhood cancer survivors ages 8-12 who report < 1 hour of moderate-to-vigorous physical (MVPA) per day. Methods: Twenty survivors were randomized to a 6-month group PA intervention or to a control group. A pre/post measure of MVPA was completed by all participants, and a pre/post measure of self-efficacy was completed by the intervention group. Analysis included measures of feasibility, change in percentage of awake time spent in MVPA, self-efficacy scores, and correlations in MVPA and self-efficacy. Results: All feasibility parameters were confirmed. Increases in percent of awake time spent in MVPA were seen in 67% of the intervention group and 14% of the control group. A medium effect size (r = 0.55) was calculated for the correlation between change in MVPA and change in total self-efficacy scores; the largest effect size (r = 0.62) was found for the subscale for adequacy. Conclusions: Increases in MVPA can be seen in childhood cancer survivors who participate in a group intervention that includes support of self-efficacy.
