Official title

A Faith-Based Intervention to Increase Physical Activity Among Blacks

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate three different approaches for increasing physical activity in African American women who are not currently doing enough physical activity. One approach will teach people about physical activity, in groups, using general principles (general physical activity program). The second approach will teach people about physical activity, in groups, using principles from the bible (faith-based physical activity program). The third approach will teach people about physical activity by giving them written materials created at the National Institutes of Health (control group). Control groups are used in research studies to see if the program being studied really does have an effect on physical activity. At the end of the study, people in the control group will also participate in either the general physical activity program or the faith-based physical activity program.
