DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Obesity and overweight are of epidemic proportions and has almost tripled in the past two decades for adolescents. Since adolescence is the period of greatest risk for developing adult obesity, we propose to develop a pilot version of a multi-media interactive computer program, Teen-wise, which promotes the adoption and maintenance of health behaviors related to the prevention of overweight and obesity. Teen-wise will be a unique and innovative product that delivers TTM-based tailored communications to facilitate not only education, but also behavior change using expert system technology in a school setting. Innovative features will include the minimal class time and teacher preparation needed to deliver the program and use of evidence-based approaches to behavior change that can have substantial impacts on health behavior. This application will develop a pilot version of Teen-wise that will target physical activity, television time, and fruit and vegetable consumption. Its acceptability and feasibility will be evaluated with high school students and with teachers, school administrators, and content experts. The results of the trial will determine the feasibility of submitting a Phase II proposal.

描述（由申请人提供）：肥胖和超重的流行比例，在过去的二十年中，青少年几乎有两倍。由于青春期是发展成年肥胖症风险最大的时期，因此我们建议开发一个多媒体交互式计算机计划的试点版本，从而促进了与预防超重和肥胖有关的健康行为的采用和维护。 青少年将是一种独特而创新的产品，可提供基于TTM的量身定制通信，不仅可以促进教育，而且还可以在学校环境中使用专家系统技术进行行为改变。 创新的功能将包括提供该计划的最小课程和教师准备，并使用基于证据的行为改变方法，这些方法可能会对健康行为产生重大影响。该应用程序将开发一个针对体育锻炼，电视时间以及水果和蔬菜消费的试验版本的试点版。它的可接受性和可行性将与高中生以及老师，学校管理人员和内容专家一起评估。试验结果将确定提交II期建议的可行性。
