Literature Review Summary Table Analysis

This assignment requires you to analyze a provided literature review summary table. The table presents various strategies for promoting physical activity, each rated on factors like quality, consistency of findings, and applicability. Your task is to examine the table, evaluate the effectiveness and relevance of different strategies based on the given ratings, and draw conclusions about their potential impact.

Prevention of obesity in children through
school-based physical activity interventions
[Project managers’ name] enter students’ name
Project overview(50 words)
The current topic focuses upon the importance of physical activity in school and the benefits of the same
in the health growth and development of the children. The current report emphasizes upon the different
strategies and actions which helps in the implementation of the physical activities in school. The report
has been further analyzed with the help of theory and models.
Background and context(1,000 words)
Health issue and community
The community selected for the present paper is Queensland, Australia. Childhood obesity is a key
concern in Queensland as the number of children who are overweight is increasing rapidly. Health
workers are being encouraged and guided to provide interventions that are useful for addressing the
needs of the children. One of the modifiable risk factors for obesity is physical inactivity and this is the
chosen are for intervention at present. The inculcation of fitness activities helps in reducing stress and
anxiety in the school children( 20). The implementation of sufficient physical activities is dependent upon
a large number of factors such as sufficient awareness among the school staff and children regarding the
benefits of physical activities. For the current assignment the intervention that would be studied is
school based physical activity.
Literature summary
Physical inactivity is the most prominent factor influencing high rates of obesity among children.
Different measures for increasing physical activity have been discussed in literature. Among these,
the most prominent one is school-based intervention. Such interventions are thought to be
universally applicable as these are effective in counteracting lower levels of physical inactivity(21).

Health promotion planning model
The health promotion model that is used at present is PRECEDE-PROCEED model. It is a
comprehensive structure for assessment and evaluation of public health programs. It was used to
focus on the implementation of the program(23).
Stakeholders
Primary stakeholders:
The primary stakeholders are school authorities, teachers, parents, instructors and
government funding organizations
Secondary stakeholders:
The secondary stakeholders are equipment suppliers(23)
