description | Objective: To validate the content of the first booklet “Niñ@s
en Movimiento” (designed in Spain), in the Colombian setting,
targeting parents or caretakers, and overweight or obese children,
which is available free online. Methodology: Qualitative
research. After a selection process, 14 overweight children
and their parents or caretakers were selected to participate. The
children were students at the Colegio Básico “Camino de Paz"
School in Medellin. To classify anthropometric data, the study
used the World Health Organization program. To validate the
booklet, a question guideline was drawn up and focus groups
were held. The criteria used included attraction, comprehension,
identification, acceptance and induction to action. Data
were analyzed using the SPSS® software Version 21.0, and
a data analysis protocol. Results: In the section “the importance
of breakfast”, in the educational material, some parents
or caretakers stated that it is necessary to indicate an adequate
way to prepare food, how to serve it and the amounts that
they should their children, which is not clear in the booklet.
Regarding the children, in the sections “my breakfasts” and
“food classification”, there were technical words that complicated
comprehension. Furthermore, when talking about food
classification, there are foods they have not seen nor eaten.
In the parent or caretaker criteria evaluation, comprehension
was poorly scored, as some of the terms were not clear. The
children also ranked negatively this criterion. Vocabulary was
difficult to understand because it had a foreign context. Conclusions:
Breakfast, although an established habit, can improve;
nevertheless, the guidelines of the booklet would have to
be adapted to local language and food culture so that these
recommendations may improve the applicability of this educational
resource. |
