Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Technology-Based Obesity Prevention Project (TeBOPP) is a bilingual (English/Spanish) family-based educational intervention that will use a novel videogame format to educate underserved inner city Latino children and adolescent patients and their parents about healthy diet and exercise. To the best of our knowledge this is the first family focused obesity prevention educational intervention using a gaming scenario where both parents and children/teens (8-15 years) participate simultaneously. The goals are to improve parent-child (teen) knowledge regarding healthy food habits and create a change in attitude towards healthy eating and exercise. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that game-based avatars (i.e., a graphical representation of an individual within a virtual space) can create change in knowledge and attitude towards healthy eating and exercise.
