Abstract
in English, Portuguese

The analysis of physical activity (PA) assistance programs is of major importance to ensure progress in the area. The Reach, Efficacy, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance (RE-AIM) tool has been broadly disseminated in the literature. This study set out to identify PA assistance programs among Brazilian students and analyze them using the RE-AIM tool. The search was conducted in the Lilacs, SportDiscus, SciELO, Scopus, Web of Science, EBSCOhot, PsycINFO and PubMed databases. After thoroughly researching titles, abstracts and studies, 15 articles (seven PA assistance programs) were included. The programs were conducted in the past decade at public schools in the South and Southeast of Brazil. Multicomponent (education and teacher training) strategies were used with positive results in the practice of PA. With respect to the results of the RE-AIM tool, it was found that the most reported dimensions were "reach" (74%), followed by "efficacy" (48%), "adoption" (43%), "implementation" (35%) and "maintenance" (5%). The indicators most frequently mentioned were those related to the internal validity of the program: demographic and behavioral information of the target population, method of identification of the target population, sample size, participation rate and number of organizational units involved.

Analisar programas de intervenção para atividade física (AF) é de grande importância para auxiliar o avanço na área. A ferramenta RE-AIM vem sendo amplamente difundida na literatura. Neste sentido, o presente estudo objetivou identificar programas de intervenção para AF em escolares brasileiros e analisá-los por meio da ferramenta RE-AIM. A busca foi realizada nas bases Lilacs, SportDiscus, SciELO, Scopus, Web of Science, EBSCOhot, Psycinfo e PubMed. Após leitura de títulos, resumos e estudos na íntegra, foram inclusos 15 artigos (sete programas de intervenção para AF). Verificou-se que os programas foram realizados nos últimos dez anos, em escolas públicas, com a maior parte nas regiões Sul e Sudeste do Brasil. Foram utilizadas estratégias multicomponentes (educativas e treinamento de professores), com resultados positivos na prática de AF. Quanto às dimensões do RE-AIM, verificou-se que “alcance” foi a mais relatada (74%), seguida de “efetividade/eficácia” (48%), “adoção” (43%), “implementação” (35%) e “manutenção” (5%). Os indicadores mais mencionados foram aqueles referentes à validade interna do programa: informação demográfica e comportamental da população alvo, método de identificação da população-alvo, tamanho da amostra, taxa de participação e número de unidades organizacionais envolvidas.
