1. Define SES and what areas/zip codes are considered to fall within those parameters

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
-great presentation overall
-good background providing eviddence for need
- good idea conducting focus groups within community

REcommendations
-define low SES
-describe approach in forming planning comittee

# data[].attributes.body
What were strengths/highlights of the presentation/proposed study?
- The priority population is well defined
- Current and accurate obesity prevalence figures
- Good planning group that even includes owners of the HOA
- Target population is affected by SES and she identified the need for assistance

What suggestions do you have for improvement?
- How is MVPA defined?
- Explanation to the specific range of the target population (40-59 years of age)
- Are there minority groups that are part of the SES strata?

What other questions do you have for this topic?
- Is this intervention based on neighborhoods, schools, or other similar areas?
- Can you think of any other evaluation instruments that might be useful for your proposal?

# data[].attributes.body
Great job! Your background context and AIMS are very clear.

I think I would have enjoyed to hear more about recruitment strategies and the cultural messaging behind how you would use feedback -- what about the feedback and cultural needs might impact phrases or words in flyers? what would impact the intervention. Maybe examples here!

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
- Overall good presentation
- good justification for priority population

Recommendation
- Consider changing your comparison group for your experiemental design to low SES neighbourhoods as well.
- You have 2 different study designs quasi and group randomized control trial are you conducting two different evaluations or is that a mistake. I'd maybe stick to GRCT. Sounds more appropriate.

# data[].attributes.body
Great topic
1. You mention that it is the most obese area in the country but it would be helpful if you broke it down by age & gender.

# data[].attributes.body
You mentioned " Making stakeholders feel appreciated". What techniques/modeling can you incorporate that increases their participation and assist them with feeling that the program is inclusive.

# data[].attributes.body
Strength
- Love the visuals in the presentation

Recommendations
- Wide age range and may require different recruitment approaches and maybe different interventions.
- Your aim 1 and 2 are very similar in terms of conducting a needs assessment. Are you conducting 2 different needs assessment?
- Could you explain how you intend to identify stakeholders using logic model

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
-Nice Visuals
-Good evidence for rational
-good clarity of measures

Recommendation
-more details on recruitment process

# data[].attributes.body
I really like how you focus on the facilitators, unhealthy eating, to obesity, and I'm really thinking hard about the four tacos I've already eaten today :)But jokes aside, I really like how equal participation of stakeholders is emphasized. I'm wondering what ways you will ensure this to happen? But I know we hardly got into that with time constraints.

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
- great overall presentation
- good prevalence data emphasizing the issue

Recommendations
- may want to specify where low SES neighborhoods are located in Harris County. I am not too familiar!

# data[].attributes.body
Great overall presentation! I also have an interest in obesity prevention within the RGV, so it was great listening to your presentation. I'm wondering how you would differentiate between age ranges. 18 years and 45 year olds may have different interests and probably frequent different locations. Great job!

# data[].attributes.body
Great visuals, succinct with sufficient information.
Recommendation
you should consider the groups to ensure they are comparable.

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths:
- Cultural relevance is well-defined, magnitude of the problem is also well-defined
- Strong epidemiological background
- Specific aims are thorough

Improvements/Questions:
- More clarity on the study design
- Why the population range only 15-19 y/o?
- Will you have a professional like a biostatistician to run the regression analysis?

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
great highlight of need
strong background
great job highlighting implementers and adapterr

# data[].attributes.body
Great presentation and good providing adequate information about the community of interest.

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths:
- Aims are clear and concise
- Good methods

Improvements/Questions:
- Why just phase 2-4 of MAPP?
- Target population is too narrow (in my opinion

Great work nonetheless and a very important public health issue in the area!

# data[].attributes.body
Good job with your presentation. It was well detailed and i appreciate your justification for what school districts you would target.

Improvement/questions:
You mentioned your intervention will focus on the enviroment but it was unclear how so?

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
-great background
-design is clear

# data[].attributes.body
Strong description of issue/need.
Bringing this intervention to the community level is a very unique approach. Great understanding of specific aims and how they will guide the implementation. Great presentation!

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths:
- Good cultural appropriateness
- Good target population
- Plenty of aims that are concise

Improvements/Questions:
- Why 40%?
- Target population unclear (at least unclear to me)

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
- Good knowledge of the health problem
- A comprehensive range of change methods choosen for the intervention

Improvement/Questions:
Consider moving the design of an experiment design from Aim 1 to after the intervention has been developed so it doesn't look like you're conducting 2 different experimental designs.

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths
- great justification of methods
-great description of need
- clear aims
Recommendations
-describe justification for project outcomes

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths:
- RCT is a concise method of research design that can be used to better gauge attitudes, norms, and behavioral control for condom usage

Improvements/Questions:
- Why is the target population adolescents ages 15 through 19?

Great work!
