DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Physical activity is vital to the normal growth of children and adolescence yet an epidemic proportion do not meet national physical activity guidelines, which in part has lead to the nation's most overweight and obese generation of children. School-sponsored physical activity has not been a solution in fighting the battle of inactivity among children and adolescents; thus, physical activity acquired during after-school hours is critical to the healthy development of children and adolescents. Youth sport is an after-school family-engaging health promoting activity with significant biopsychosocial benefits that can be a fun and enjoyable means of acquiring recommended levels of physical activity. In fact, youth sport programs create a broader community support for physical activity because they engage many stakeholders - children and adolescents, parents, coaches, and families creating a dynamic physical activity experience. However, attrition from youth sport is alarmingly high - as many as 1/3 of children drop out of youth sport annually and as many as 70% will drop out by adolescence. Therefore, research is needed to identify the determinants and barriers to sustained participation in youth sport. Concept mapping is an inductive mixed-methodology which simultaneously conceptualizes the experiences and barriers facing stakeholders by producing visual maps which display data about the major factors, how they are interrelated, similarities and differences among stakeholder groups, how factors change over time, and factors of greatest importance and feasibility for intervention. Further, concept mapping naturally leads to and guides evaluation metric development. The overall goal of this proposed study is to use concept mapping to develop a robust conceptual framework to further our understanding of underlying mechanisms related to best-practices and barriers in order to sustain the family and developing child's (8-18 years old) participation in youth sport. Consequently, to achieve our goals, our project is systematically organized into three phases, each addressing our study aims: (1) to identify factors and determine differences in how children, parents, and coaches conceptualize their experiences and barriers associated with their participation in youth sport; (2) to develop and validate objective multidimensional measures of participatory experiences and barriers in organized sport for the aforementioned stakeholders; and, in turn (3) to predict 1-year attrition from youth sport using these newly developed and validated measures of participatory sport experiences and barriers. This will be the first study to innovatively apply concept mapping to physical activity and sport participation research. Such unique data will be critical to the development of a youth sport sustainability model and will be instrumental in the design and testing of specific-developmentally and gender-appropriate efficacious youth sport sustainability interventions. Completion of our aims will further our ability to advance health promotion and disease prevention by furthering our understanding of how best to successfully engage children, their families, and communities in healthy and active lifestyles through organized youth sport.

身体活动对儿童和青少年的正常生长至关重要，但流行比例不符合国家身体活动指南，这在一定程度上导致了全国最超重和肥胖的一代儿童。学校赞助的体育活动并不是解决儿童和青少年缺乏活动问题的办法;因此，在放学后进行体育活动对儿童和青少年的健康发展至关重要。青少年体育是一项课后家庭参与的健康促进活动，具有显著的生物心理社会效益，可以成为获得推荐体力活动水平的有趣和愉快的手段。事实上，青少年体育项目为体育活动创造了更广泛的社区支持，因为它们吸引了许多利益相关者-儿童和青少年，父母，教练和家庭，创造了动态的体育活动体验。然而，青少年体育的流失率高得惊人-每年有多达1/3的儿童退出青少年体育，多达70%的儿童在青春期退出。因此，需要进行研究，以确定持续参与青年体育的决定因素和障碍。概念制图是一种归纳性混合方法，通过绘制直观地图，同时将利益攸关方面临的经验和障碍概念化，这些地图显示有关主要因素的数据，这些因素如何相互关联，利益攸关方群体之间的相似性和差异性，因素如何随时间变化，以及最重要和最可行的干预因素。此外，概念映射自然会导致并指导评价指标的开发。这项拟议研究的总体目标是使用概念映射来制定一个强大的概念框架，以进一步了解与最佳做法和障碍有关的基本机制，以维持家庭和发展儿童（8-18岁）参与青年体育。因此，为了达到我们的目标，我们的项目被系统地组织成三个阶段，每个阶段都解决了我们的研究目标：（1）确定因素，并确定儿童，家长和教练如何概念化他们的经验和他们参与青少年体育的障碍的差异;（2）为上述利益攸关方制定和验证客观的多层面措施，衡量有组织体育的参与经验和障碍;（3）利用这些新开发和验证的参与性体育经验和障碍的测量方法来预测青少年1年的体育消耗。这将是第一个创新性地将概念映射应用于身体活动和运动参与研究的研究。这些独特的数据对于制定青年体育可持续性模式至关重要，并有助于设计和测试具体的、针对发展和性别的有效的青年体育可持续性干预措施。我们的目标的完成将进一步提高我们的能力，以促进健康促进和疾病预防，进一步了解如何最好地成功地吸引儿童，他们的家庭和社区在健康和积极的生活方式，通过有组织的青年体育。
