The purpose of this study is to refine, evaluate the feasibility, and to estimate the effect of the "healthy Living Study," a brief outpatient problem-solving intervention to promote healthy eating and activity habits in adolescents.
This study will refine, evaluate the feasibility, and estimate the effect of a brief problem-solving intervention to promote healthy eating and activity habits in adolescents. Intervention participants will receive 2 sessions of individual behavioral counseling on problem-solving skills utilizing educational videos, handouts, and worksheets. Intervention participants will be asked to generate unique health goals and practice utilizing problem-solving skills to achieve these goals.Control participants will receive standard of care. Outcomes will explore the ability to shorten the intervention, integrate the intervention into busy outpatient clinics, and estimate the effect of the intervention on confidence to maintain or improve healthy habits and to improve problem-solving skills.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Feasibility to conduct a brief problem-solving intervention in a busy academic outpatient setting. | Feasibility will be measured in the following ways:
| From recruitment of the first participant to completion of the intervention by the last participant, anticipated duration of time: 7-8 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in problem-solving skills | Participants will complete survey questions modified from the Social Problem-Solving Inventory for Adolescents (SPSI-A) both pre-intervention and post-intervention. These questions provide an assessment of problem-solving skills and are scored on a Likert scale of 1-5 with 5=more positive/constructive problem-solving skills. Change in overall mean score from pre- to post- intervention will be compared within intervention and control groups and between groups. Duration of time between pre- and post- intervention will average 1-2 months. |

| Change from baseline to 1-2 months |
| Change in confidence to maintain or improve healthy eating habits | Participants will complete pre- and post- intervention questions on confidence to maintain or improve healthy eating habits. An example question: "How confident are you that you could change or maintain your eating patterns to limit soda to <1 can/day." Questions will be scored on a Likert scale of 1-6 with 6=very confident. Change in overall mean score from pre- to post- intervention will be compared within intervention and control groups and between groups. Duration of time between pre- and post- intervention will average about 1-2 months. | Change from baseline to 1-2 months |
| Sufficient recruitment and retention rates | Detailed records of patients approached, consented, randomized, and completing the study will be maintained. These records will be reviewed at the conclusion of the study to gauge patient interest in participating in a problem-solving intervention in the outpatient setting. | From recruitment of the first participant to completion of the intervention by the last participant, anticipated duration of time: 7-8 months |
