ASPHALT II: Study Protocol for a Multi-Method Evaluation of a Comprehensive Peer-Led Youth Community Sport Programme Implemented in Low Resource Neighbourhoods.

To reduce inequalities in children's sport participation, studies are needed to explore ways in which children from low resource neighbourhoods can be engaged and retained in sport. GAME Community is a peer-led community sport programme which aims to promote physical activity through participation in inclusive street sports activities targeting 8-15-year-old children living in low resource neighbourhoods. The GAME Community intervention is implemented by the non-profit street sport organisation GAME.

"I was pushed over the edge, but I didn't die" - A qualitative case study of Danish school children's food literacy at FOODcamp.

Food literacy (FL) is a goal for many food camps aimed at improving school children's culinary skills and food knowledge. FL in relation to children has been defined as constituting five competencies: "to do" (practical skills),"to know" (knowledge), "to sense" (sensory experiences), "to care" (care for self and others), and "to want" (to be willing to act). However, understanding the processes and mechanisms that relates to school children's FL remain underexplored.

Development and validation of a food literacy instrument for school children in a Danish context.

Food literacy (FL) is an aim of food education and cooking interventions, but is defined and measured in different ways. In this study we developed, tested, and validated a FL instrument targeting children aged 12-14 years that builds on a broad 5-dimensional FL concept that includes the competencies of knowing and doing, as well as the rarely investigated competencies of using the senses, caring for others, and wanting to participate as a citizen regarding food issues. The study had 3 phases: 1) item development involving an expert panel; 2) scale testing comprising a face validity test with 12 pupils and a test with 817 pupils, of which 267 took part in a retest; and 3) scale validation including testing dimensionality by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), internal reliability by Cronbach α, external reliability by intraclass coefficient (ICC), and convergent and predictive validity by regression analysis.
