Interventions implemented through sporting organisations for increasing participation in sport
Abstract
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
-
To determine the effects of interventions implemented through sporting organisations for increasing (active and non‐active) participation in organised sport.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
-
To determine if interventions are more successful with particular participants, grouped by, for example socio‐economic status, gender, age, ethnicity, geographical location and individual or team sports.
-
To determine if the success of the interventions is dependant on particular process indicators (ie. those that describe why and how a particular intervention has worked).
-
To determine if the success of the interventions is dependant on particular contextual factors (eg. concurrent media campaigns at the time of implementation).
-
To determine if multiple intervention strategies are more effective than single interventions in increasing participation.
-
To determine if different types of interventions are more effective than others.
-
To determine if short term changes are maintained at 12 months and beyond.
