2.1. Research Overview and Intervention Description
BFG
Although described in detail elsewhere [Girls in the experimental group received the full intervention—i.e., they watched eight animated BFG episodes, set diet and physical activity goals, tracked and reported goal progress, and received feedback tailored to goal attainment. Girls randomized to the comparison group received only the animated stories, while girls randomized to the waitlist control group received the experimental intervention after completing all three data collection timepoints (baseline, post 1, and post 2). This design provided tests of the story alone, and of the added goal setting intervention and feedback.The BFG program was adapted from an earlier pilot intervention, Because the initial intervention was developed and tested over a decade earlier, community-engaged research [
