Background. we conducted a comparative effectiveness analysis to evaluate the difference in the amount of physical activity children engaged in when enrolled in a physical activity-enhanced after-school program based in a community recreation center versus a standard school-based after-school program. methods. the study was a natural experiment with 54 elementary school children attending the community asp and 37 attending the school-based asp. accelerometry was used to measure physical activity. data were collected at baseline,6 weeks,and 12 weeks,with 91% retention. results. at baseline,43% of the multiethnic sample was overweight/obese,and the mean age was 7.9 years (sd = 1.7). linear latent growth models suggested that the average difference between the two groups of children at week 12 was 14.7 percentage points in moderate-vigorous physical activity (p <. 001). cost analysis suggested that children attending traditional school-based asps - at an average cost of $17.67 per day - would need an additional daily investment of $1.59 per child for 12 weeks to increase their moderate-vigorous physical activity by a model-implied 14.7 percentage points. conclusions. a low-cost,alternative after-school program featuring adult-led physical activities in a community recreation center was associated with increased physical activity compared to standard-of-care school-based after-school program. © 2013 sabina b. gesell et al.
