Overview of applying the RE-AIM framework in evaluating and adapting the Active Plus project.

RE-AIM dimension Definition Adaptation for the Active Plus project
Reach Number and representativeness of individuals willing to participate Extending the delivery mode to a Web-based version
Providing additional information to reach both low- and high-socioeconomic status groups
Providing additional information to reach participants with physical disabilities
Effectiveness Impact of the intervention on target outcomes Translating the print-delivered interventions into Web-based interventions
Adding information to increase intervention effects in the subgroups that were less affected by the original intervention (persons with a normal body mass index and persons aged over 65 years)
Improving intervention strategies
Stimulating self-efficacy and strategic planning
Stimulating intrinsic motivation
Reinforcing and extending environmental information
Adoption Proportion and representativeness of settings that adopt the intervention Translating the print-delivered interventions into Web-based interventions. Response rates to the print-delivered interventions are higher than response rates to the Web-based interventionsa
Implementation Extent to which the interventions are delivered as intended a
Maintenance Extent to which individual participants maintain behavior change long term and the extent to which the intervention is sustained over time within the organizations that deliver the intervention Improvements made to the original interventions are expected to further increase the effects on physical activity behaviora
