The information contained within this bulletin is based on data from the WA Health and Wellbeing Surveillance System (HWSS). The HWSS is a continuous data collection system that over the course of twelve months, surveys over 6500 Western Australians of all ages. Information is collected on a wide range of health and wellbeing issues, health conditions, lifestyle risk factors, protective factors and demographics. The HSWW is conducted as a Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI). From December 2006 questions about where and when people did their physical activity were added to the survey and are scheduled to remain until after the end of this year's daylight saving period.

[Truncated abstract] Introduction: Regular moderate intensity physical activity is associated with established health benefits for adults. Since the 1970s mass media campaigns have been used to communicate and influence populations through paid and unpaid traditional media channels such as television, billboards, radio and print materials. The evaluation of these campaigns at the population level has focussed on immediate and short term effects on a range of awareness, knowledge and intention outcomes, with behaviour change less often explored. Few evaluations of mass media campaigns have been conducted over a longer time period. The focus of this PhD thesis was to evaluate Find Thirty every day® a Western Australian state-wide physical activity campaign. This research used representative cross sectional and cohort samples of the population in the evaluation design. Previous evaluations of mass media campaigns have generally used cross sectional designs. This combination of method provides an innovative contribution to the campaign evaluation literature. Methods: The Find Thirty every day® evaluation took place over a two years (2008-2010). The sampling protocol required equal proportions of males and females, aged between 25 and 54 years, and a quarter were from regional Western Australia. The total sample size was n=3006, with a final useable cross sectional sample of n=2,847. The cohort participants were recruited as a sub sample from respondents who participated in the cross sectional baseline data set and who agreed to participate in the cohort (n=833). The cross-sectional design had three data collection points and the cohort design had four data collection points on the same individuals over two years. Results: This thesis comprised five studies. A systematic review of the adult mass media physical activity literature was undertaken to assess the current state of evidence on the design, delivery and evaluation of mass media campaigns. The review revealed that most studies used repeat cross sectional designs, and overall there were mixed results in terms of campaign effectiveness across awareness, intermediary impacts and changes in physical activity outcomes. The second study examined the impact of the Find Thirty every day® campaign on awareness, intention to be active and physical activity behaviour using repeat cross sectional population data. Overall awareness levels increased by almost 20% across the first twelve months and by two years 50% of the primary target group were aware of the campaign message...

This book provides pregnant women and new parents with evidence-based information on pregnancy and parenting. Most parenting books advise pregnant women or new parents what to do and, at best, defend that advice by citing recommendations from highly selected “experts” or equally selective “studies.” Some parents prefer an advice book, but an increasing number do not trust the advice they receive unless they are convinced of its scientific backing. Dr. Kramer does not tell pregnant women or new parents what they should or should not do. Instead, he focuses on controversial decision choices for which recommendations and practices differ substantially. He systematically reviews and synthesizes the available scientific evidence bearing on those choices, summarizes the strengths and weaknesses of that evidence, and translates the summaries in a way that encourages parents to make their own informed decisions. He summarizes the risks and benefits of different decision options, as well as the degree of certainty around them. The risks and benefits then need to be valued by the individual parent and balanced against the effort and financial costs incurred by the decision. Beyond Parenting Advice does not cover every conceivable topic relevant to pregnancy, infancy, and childhood. Instead, it focuses on key controversial areas with abundant but conflicting advice and information. The book’s contents are organized into four sections: an initial section comprising two introductory chapters and one section each devoted to topics concerning pregnancy, infancy/toddlerhood, and childhood/adolescence. Each topic is limited to one chapter. The two introductory chapters are short but dense. They are essential, however, to understand the scientific concepts and vocabulary used in the evidence review of each topic area. After reading the two initial chapters, the rest of the book can actually be used like an encyclopedia. In other words, the reader should be able to read and understand any later chapter in the book, or even a short section from any chapter. Despite the chronological order of pregnancy and the aging child, the topic chapters in sections 2-4 could have been written, and can be read, in any order. An initial Reference Tools section provides a glossary and reproduces a diagram and two tables that define unfamiliar words and concepts. Armed with the information provided in this book, different parents will make different decisions. But those decisions will be informed decisions—not blind obedience to a book, blog, health provider, friend, family, or public health authority. Moreover, the skills that parents acquire in reading this book will help them throughout their lives in critically evaluating new information relevant to health, science, and technology.

Physical Activity Epidemiology, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive discussion of current population-level studies showing the influence of physical activity on disease. Updated with extensive new research collected in the eight years since the previous edition, the second edition adds the expertise of respected epidemiologist I-Min Lee. To assist readers in understanding the public health significance of physical activity, Dishman, Heath, and Lee present a detailed review of research findings and what those findings suggest regarding the relationship between physical activity and a variety of health risks. The second edition of this groundbreaking text has been exhaustively updated to reflect the wealth of new research published in this fast-moving field of study. With more than 100 pages of additional content, the text also offers more detailed coverage of all-cause and coronary heart disease mortality, expanded coverage of pathophysiology and biological plausibility, new information on physical activity among various racial–ethnic populations, and the effects of physical activity on cognitive function, dementia, and HIV/AIDS. More than 250 tables and figures, twice the number found in the previous edition, highlight the latest epidemiological information in an easy-to-understand visual format. Physical Activity Epidemiology, Second Edition, assists readers in understanding how leisure-time physical activity can enhance people’s quantity and quality of life by summarizing the available knowledge, detailing the methods used to obtain it, considering its implications for public health, and outlining the important questions that remain. Readers will find comprehensive discussion of these topics: • Evidence that physical activity protects against the development of coronary heart disease and stroke and premature death from all causes • Population-based studies and clinical experiments providing evidence that physical activity and exercise play a role in the primary and secondary prevention of mild hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity • Contemporary epidemiologic evidence that physical activity reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis and protects against the development of breast and colon cancers, some inflammatory diseases, depression, and anxiety disorders • Considerations in the promotion of a safe, physically active lifestyle among all segments of the population Physical Activity Epidemiology, Second Edition, will engage and challenge students by examining the state of current research in all of its variation and even ambiguity. The text details the methodology and findings of classic and contemporary studies and then helps students begin to analyze the results. Special Strength of the Evidence sections found at the end of most chapters summarize the findings to determine the extent to which correlation and causation can be proven. Chapter objectives, chapter summaries, and sidebars in each chapter assist students in focusing on the key points of study, and an extensive glossary with detailed definitions provides a handy reference for review. Instructors will find a new image bank in this edition to enhance their class lecture materials. Physical Activity Epidemiology, Second Edition, offers students, sport and exercise scientists, health and fitness professionals, and public health administrators a comprehensive presentation of significant studies, how these studies contribute to understanding the relationship between activity and disease prevention, and how this information can be used in leading individuals, communities, and global society toward increased health and longevity.
