Assessing Programs Designed to Eliminate Health Challenges Among Young Children
Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of structured intervention programs in improving physical and mental health outcomes among physically inactive children aged seven to twelve years.
Purpose: The purpose of the research is to address the rising concern of childhood inactivity and its related health risks, such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and behavioral issues, by identifying and evaluating strategies that promote regular physical activity.
Methodology: A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to explore existing evidence-based interventions, followed by a pre- and post-test experimental design involving 200 children, equally divided by gender into two groups, who participated in a six-month structured physical activity program.
Findings: The results showed significant improvement in both physical and mental health among participants after the intervention, indicating the effectiveness of targeted physical activity initiatives in reducing inactivity and enhancing overall well-being.
Conclusion: The study concludes that early-age intervention programs are crucial for preventing long-term health complications associated with physical inactivity, and it provides relevant limitations and recommendations to guide future research.
