Primary | Change in Physical Activity | Physical activity will be assessed using an actigraph device with a three-axis accelerometer. | Baseline and 10 months | |
Primary | Change in Cardiorespiratory Fitness | Cardiorespiratory fitness will be assessed using the 20-meter shuttle run test. | Baseline and 10 months | |
Secondary | Change in Physical Activity | Physical activity will be assessed using an actigraph device with a three-axis accelerometer. | Baseline and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Cardiorespiratory Fitness | Cardiorespiratory fitness will be assessed using the 20-meter shuttle run test. | Baseline and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Muscular Strength | Muscular strength will be assessed using a handgrip dynamometer. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Flexibility | Flexibility will be assessed using the sit-and-reach test. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Agility | Agility will be assessed using a 4 x 10-meter shuttle run test. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Balance Ability | Balance ability will be assessed by the number of successful steps performed on a balance beam. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Muscle Power | Muscle power will be assessed using a vertical jump and a stationary long jump test. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Body Mass Index | Weight and height will be assessed using a calibrated electronic digital weighing scale and stadiometer respectively. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Waist Circumference | Waist circumference will be assessed using an inelastic measuring tape to the nearest 0.1cm. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Body Fat | Body fat will be assessed using a bioelectrical impedance-based multi-frequency segmental body composition analyzer (MC780, Tanita, Japan). | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Fat-Free Mass | Fat-free mass will be assessed using a bioelectrical impedance-based multi-frequency segmental body composition analyzer (MC780, Tanita, Japan). | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Sedentary Behavior and Screen Time | Sedentary behavior and screen time will be assessed using a 7-day activities logbook and accelerometer data. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Treatment Self-Regulation Questionnaire Score | Treatment Self-Regulation Questionnaire (TSRQ) will be used to assess the children's autonomous motivation and beliefs on active healthy lifestyles. The items in TSRQ will be answered on a 3-point Likert scale with a higher score corresponding to greater autonomous motivation. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Theory of Planned Behavior Scale Score | Theory of Planned Behavior Scale (TPBS) will be used to assess the children's social cognitive beliefs of health and physical activity behavior. The items in TPBS will be answered on a 3-point Likert scale with a higher score corresponding to a greater willingness to engage in the mentioned behaviors. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Kiddy-KINDL | Kiddy-KINDL will be used to assess the health-related quality of life in children. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months | |
Secondary | Change in Early Development Instrument | Early Development Instrument (EDI) will be used to assess the children's general well-being. | Baseline, 10 months, and 16 months |
