Increasing physical activity among Indonesian adolescents: a social marketing intervention reflection
本文报告了一项在印度尼西亚巴厘岛针对青少年的社会营销干预，通过三个阶段的实施，显著改变了身体活动行为，并识别了有效的干预要素。
Purpose This paper aims to provide an overview of a social marketing intervention that aimed to increase physical activity (aligned to UN SDG 3) among adolescents in Bali, Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach Three sequential phases were followed to deliver the social marketing intervention. Phrase 1 (formative research) gained insights that guided a subsequent social marketing intervention. Phase 2 (pilot intervention) gathered preliminary results, to support the development of the final intervention. Phase 3 (intervention) evaluated the effectiveness of the two-month social marketing intervention. Findings The results from the intervention tested in this paper identified significant behaviour change in physical activity, demonstrating the effectiveness of the intervention. Furthermore, the paper identifies which intervention inputs contribute to behaviour change and which do not. Research limitations/implications This paper describes the outcomes from an eight-week pilot programme that aimed to increase rates of physical activity for Indonesian adolescents and provides early evidence of impact. Practical implications This study found that providing adolescents with the opportunity to play team sports increases physical activity behaviour. Originality/value There is a lot of ground that needs to be made in terms of designing programs capable of achieving impact in the Global South. The approach reported in this paper can serve as a best-practice model for researchers wanting to drive lasting behaviour change to overcome known inequities in the Global South.
