摘要

Worldwide, mobile health interventions have been developed to foster knowledge and encourage behavioral changes. The purposes of this study were twofold: (1) to evaluate a short-term gamified intervention using a mobile health system on the physical literacy (PL) cognitive domain among school-aged adolescents, and (2) to assess the users’ experience while using the proposed mobile health system designed for the school community. Participants were 115 students aged 13.8 ± 1.2 years (52.2% boys), from four public schools in the Autonomous Region of Madeira. The study comprised a baseline (TM0) and post-intervention assessment (TM1) of the cognitive module of the Portuguese Physical Literacy Assessment Questionnaire (PPLA-Q) to evaluate the students’ knowledge, and a user experience assessment through the Portuguese version of the System Usability Scale (SUS). The results showed an increase in the number of participants who scored above the average in the PPLA-Q, however, no significant differences were found between TM0 and TM1. Overall, the mean SUS score was 66, which is below average but acceptable. Despite the high dropout rate, this study demonstrates the effectiveness of a short-term intervention program in enhancing PL knowledge. Promoting the PLPL cognitive domain during childhood and adolescence is crucial to fostering long-term physically active lifestyles. Future, ta, tailored interventions targeting health are still needed at school age and may be essential for sustainable development.
