Neumark-Sztainer, Dianne; Story, Mary
Journal of School Health, v67 n10 p428-33 Dec 1997
Investigated overweight adolescents' attitudes toward the development of school-based weight control programs, examining their level of interest in participating and noting outcomes they desired. Interviews with 61 adolescents indicated they were interested provided the programs were enjoyable, informative, caring, and supportive; did not conflict with other activities; and were run by understanding leaders.
