2. METHOD 2.1. Theoretical Framework The program’s strategies were based on a robust process [21] using the PRECEDE-PROCEED Model [22] as the overall conceptual framework and the Social Cognitive Theory constructs such as [23], self-efficacy and goal setting, along with motivational interviewing [24]. These constructs helped to inform the intervention strategies and design. Materials and strategies designed for the intervention had a strong emphasis on improving par- ticipants’ self-efficacy relating to both dietary intake and physical activity behaviour. Information presented at workshops and written resources highlighted barriers and motivators (intrinsic and extrinsic) for achieving adequate levels of physical activity and a healthy diet. The workshop sessions helped equip participants with skills and knowledge to better manage their physical activity and dietary behaviours. For example, information on how to read food labels and tips on healthy dietary choices were provided, while text messaging reinforced healthy food choices. The program also supported goal setting, related to dietary and physical activity behaviour change and assessment of these goals as the intervention progressed
