Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Adolescents are eligible to participate if they are:
- 13-17 years old
- At a functioning grade level (English literacy and comprehension)
- Interested in setting a lifestyle/behavioural goal related to improving diet, physical activity or sedentary activity, and
- Seeking health services at the Northeast Community Health Centre (NECHC; Edmonton, Alberta, Canada)
- All participating providers who deliver care to adolescents at the NECHC are eligible to participate.
Exclusion
- N/A
- Our original eligibility criteria included a BMI ≥85th percentile. After recruiting the first five patients with overweight/obesity from March to August 2019, we decided to remove BMI eligibility criteria given the applicability of our tool's focus on lifestyle and adolescents across the weight spectrum, as well as to enhance recruitment. This decision was made by the research team in conjunction with clinical staff involved in the trial.
