Context | Mechanism | Outcome | Supporting Evidence |
---|---|---|---|
If teacher training workshops are provided. | Then teachers become empowered and increase delivery confidence and competence. Teachers feel a sense of autonomy and ownership over the program. | Teachers model positive physical activity behavior and there is high program implementation fidelity and increased child physical activity. | Magnusson et al. [23] Donnelly et al. [51] |
If physical activity resources and equipment are provided without training. | Then teachers lack autonomy and perceive physical activity program delivery as a stand-alone and additional. | Teachers do not use, or misuse the resources provided. | Huberty et al. [45] Martin and Murtagh [22] Weaver et al. [59] |
If the intervention requires substantial teacher involvement, | Then there will be a differential response depending upon willingness and training provided. | Ineffective and/or inconsistent implementation of the physical activity program. | Drummy et al. [40] Huberty et al. [45] Martin and Murtagh [22] Weaver et al. [59] |
