目标是让儿童和青少年识别健康饮食和身体活动的主要感知益处和障碍，并对其进行排名，并提出克服障碍的策略。使用标准化问题和提示进行了结构化、深入的焦点小组讨论。来自 34 所随机选择的学校的 2 至 11 年级学生（7 至 17 岁；N=213）参加了 38 个焦点小组。健康饮食的主要好处包括改善认知和身体表现、健身、耐力、心理益处、身体感觉（身体感觉良好）和能量产生。障碍包括便利性、品味和社会因素。体育活动的好处包括社会效益、心理状态、身体感觉和运动表现的增强。障碍包括对室内活动的偏好、缺乏精力和动力、时间限制和社会因素。建议的克服障碍的策略包括家长和学校工作人员的支持、更好的规划、时间管理、自我激励、教育、重组物质环境以及更多种类的体育活动。
The goal was to have children and adolescents identify and rank the major perceived benefits of and barriers to healthful eating and physical activity and to suggest strategies for overcoming barriers. Sernistructured, in-depth focus groups were undertaken using standardized questions and prompts. Students in grades 2 through 11 (ages 7 through 17; N=213) from 34 randomly selected schools participated in 38 focus groups. Major benefits of healthful eating included improvements to cognitive and physical performance, fitness, endurance, psychological benefits, physical sensation (feeling good physically), and production of energy. Barriers included convenience, taste, and social factors. Benefits of physical activity included social benefits, enhancement of psychological status, physical sensation, and sports performance. Barriers included a preference for indoor activities, lack of energy and motivation, time constraints, and social factors. Suggested strategies for overcoming barriers included support from parents and school staff, better planning, time management, self-motivation, education, restructuring the physical environment, and greater variety of physical activities.
