Abstract

This study examines the trajectories of support for physical activities (PA) using a sample of low-income Hispanic parents of young children, identifies time-invariant and time-varying covariates of parental support for PA, and assesses the effect of a school-and-family based intervention implemented among predominantly Hispanic children over 22 months.
