Detailed Description

This study aims to examine the efficacy of a Stage-Matched Intervention based on The Transtheoretical Model of Change in dietary fat reduction among female high school students.

The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in.

A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Anticipated Enrollment :
144 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Sequential Assignment
Masking:
Single (Participant)
Masking Description:
The researchers will use two groups (study and control) in which participants will be randomly selected and assigned in each of the study and control groups using simple random sampling. The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Precontemplation, Contemplation, Preparation, Action, and Maintenance-based intervention

The intervention that would consider the Processes of Change that people use when they would be in the Precontemplation Stage of Change.

Behavioral: Stage-matched interventions
The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in. A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.

Experimental: Contemplation-based intervention

The intervention that would consider the Processes of Change that people use when they would be in the Contemplation Stage of Change.

Behavioral: Stage-matched interventions
The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in. A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.

Experimental: Preparation-based intervention

The intervention that would consider the Processes of Change that people use when they would be in the Preparation Stage of Change.

Behavioral: Stage-matched interventions
The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in. A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.

Experimental: Action-based intervention

The intervention that would consider the Processes of Change that people use when they would be in the Action Stage of Change.

Behavioral: Stage-matched interventions
The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in. A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.

Experimental: Maintenance-based intervention

The intervention that would consider the Processes of Change that people use when they would be in the Maintenance Stage of Change.

Behavioral: Stage-matched interventions
The study intervention will be designed based on each Stage of Change of the Transtheoretical Model of Change in that participants in each Stage of Change will receive the intervention that matches the Stage of Change they would be in. A 12-week interval would be considered between administering the intervention and posttest 1 and the same interval would be used between posttest 1 and posttest 2.
