Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC),	is a 20-item self-report depression inventory with possible scores ranging from 0 to 60. Each response to an item is scored as follows: 0 = "Not At All" 1 = "A Little" 2 = "Some" 3 = "A Lot" However, items 4, 8, 12, and 16 are phrased positively, and thus are scored in the opposite order: 3 = "Not At All" 2 = "A Little" 1 = "Some" 0 = "A Lot" Higher CES-DC scores indicate increasing levels of depression.	First at baseline and then after 12 weeks of the exercise program
