5th Annual Research and Evaluation of
Adventure Programming (REAP)

Atlanta, GA
Objectives
• Why evidence-base?
• Discuss evidence from 2008 Guidelines
• Identify evidence from the Community
Guide
• Identify potential strategies to include
in adventure programs
Why evidence-base?
• Based on what we KNOW…rather
than what we THINK works
• Process of planning, implementing
and evaluating programs
• Individual & community
– gain skills/adopt behaviors
– improve physical environment
What is evidence = proof?
• Evidence of a
health effect
• Evidence of a
program effect
• Evidence of
program design
& context
SOME action needed
SPECIFIC program effect
SPECIFIC delivery effect
Perceptions
• Advantages
– Lead to efficient use of
resources
– Continuity & growth
of the program
– Common performance
measures
– Supports quality
improvement
– Helps establish
partnership
• Disadvantages
– Need to know where to
find evidence
– Added expense as tools
and process are
unfamiliar
– Program appears
standardized instead of
tailored
– May impact
community buy-in
Common components
•
•
•
•
Specific target population
Specific, measurable goals
Proven benefits
Defined program (structure, timeframe,
reasoning)
• Support (staffing skills, facility,
equipment)
Summary

planning, implementing and
evaluating
• Many advantages and disadvantages

Evidence Review
• Literature review examined original
research published since January 1995
• Health outcome chapters:
– All-cause mortality, cardio-respiratory, musculoskeletal,
functional health, cancer, mental health, adverse events,
metabolic, & energy balance
• Stratified by age groups
– Children and youth (6-18 years)
– Adults (19-64 years)
– Older adults (65 + years)
Initial research questions
Is physical activity (PA) associated with
the health outcome of interest [x]?
What dose of PA is associated with [x]?
What level of PA intensity influences [x]?
Do different modes (types) influence [x]?

Summary
• Most recent scientific review for
Americans in the past decade
• 2008 Guidelines specify a minimum of
aerobic PA based on total time per week
• For children and adolescents the 2008
Guidelines specify 3 days a week of bone
& muscle strengthening activity
• For adults the 2008 Guidelines specify 2
days a week of muscle-strengthening
activity
Summary
• Avoid inactivity
– Some activity is better than none
• Aerobic activity for children & adolescents
– ≥60 mins/day moderate intensity or
equivalent
• Aerobic activity for adults
– Substantial health benefits from medium
amounts
• ≥150 mins/week moderate intensity or
equivalent
– More health benefits from high amounts
• ≥ 300 mins/week moderate intensity or
equivalent

Overview of the Task Force on
Community Preventive Services
(TFCP) Recommendations
AKA: Community Guide
The Community Guide:
A Tool for Evidence-Base
• Independent Task Force on
Community Preventive Services
• Population-based prevention
strategies
• Set of recommendations based
on systematic reviews of
literature
The Community Guide Uses
A Systematic Approach
• Form team
• Develop conceptual framework
• Define, group and select interventions to be
evaluated
• Search for and collect evidence of effectiveness
• Evaluate quality of studies
• Summarize evidence
• Consider economics, feasibility, and harms
• Translate evidence into recommendations

What are some strengths of the
Community Guide?
•
•
•
•
•
Systematic review
Credible
Evidence of effectiveness
Sometimes cost effectiveness
A good starting point….
What are some limitations of the
Community Guide
• Intervention headings arbitrary
• Limited to available evidence at
the time
• Not the only consideration; not
the only evidence
• Doesn’t account for different
contexts, e.g., history, culture
5 Recommended strategies
Recommended, strong evidence:
1. Community wide campaigns
2. Individually-adapted health behavior change
programs
3. School-based physical education
4. Social support interventions in community contexts
5. Creation of/enhanced access to places for PA
combined with informational outreach
What is the Guide to
Community Preventive Services
(Community Guide)?
• Effective population-level strategies to
promote physical activity (PA)
• 3 Intervention categories:
– Environmental & policy approaches
• Creation of/enhanced access to places
for PA combined with informational
outreach
Promoting PA: Environmental
and Policy Approaches
The Task Force Strongly Recommended
Creation of or enhanced access to places for PA combined with
informational outreach
• Multi-component
• Built environment – access to
trails/facilities, creating walking trails,
building exercise facilities nearby
• Reducing barriers (safety, affordability)
• Training & incentives (site-specific
programs, workshops, seminars)
Creation of/enhanced access to
places for PA combined with
informational outreach
• Community Guide use “places” instead of
“facilities” to avoid the implication that physical
activity needs a special type of structure.
• Interventions were not simply about building
trails or facilities; many of them also included
training, incentives education, risk factor
screening or programming to entice and support
use of these places for physical activity
Results from the Systematic Reviews
• In all 10 studies reviewed, creating or enhancing
access to places for physical activity was effective
in getting people to exercise more
– Aerobic capacity: median increase of 5.1%
(interquartile interval: 2.8% to 9.6%; 8 study arms)
– Energy expenditure: median increase of 8.2%
(interquartile interval: -2.0% to 24.6%; 3 study arms)
– Percentage of participants reporting some leisure-time
physical activity: median increase of 2.9% (interquartile
interval: -6.0% to 8.5%; 4 study arms)
– Exercise score: median increase of 13.7% (interquartile
interval: -1.8% to 69.6%; 6 study arms)
Results continued
• Most of the studies also reported weight losses or
decreases in body fat among program participants
• Many of these programs train participants to use
exercise equipment, health/fitness programs, and
support or buddy systems
• These interventions were effective among both
men and women and in various settings, including
industrial plants, universities, federal agencies,
and low-income communities
• If appropriately adapted to the target populations,
these interventions should be applicable to diverse
settings and groups

QUIZ
• Which of the following Community
Guide recommendations are applicable
to adventure programs?
A) Creating places to places to be active
B) Enhancing access to places to be active
C) Informational outreach
D) A and B
E) All of the above
QUIZ
• The Community Guide recommendation
category for the creation or enhanced access
to places for physical activity combined with
informational outreach activities is?
A) Recommended, strong evidence
B) Recommended, sufficient evidence
C) Insufficient evidence
D) Recommended against due to lack of effect, cost,
harms
E) All of the above
Implications
• Awareness of scientific evidence
• Individuals need a flexible and
adaptable exercise prescription
• Translation of efforts are needed to
encourage inactive to consider
becoming active
• Need to continue monitoring levels of
activity in community
Wrap up
• What are some potential strategies to
include in adventure programming?
• What outcomes have you collected that
have demonstrated program
effectiveness?
• How have you used these outcomes to
leverage funding?
