We provide a list of publications from the three CHAMPS studies, as well as on promoting physical activity in older adults, organized as follows:
- CHAMPS I: a demonstration project for seniors in low-income housing
- CHAMPS II: a randomized controlled trial of CHAMPS in a Medicare HMO
- CHAMPS III: diffusion of CHAMPS into diverse community settings
- Promoting physical activity in older adults
You can also download this list as a WORD file, which also includes hyperlinks. For a pdf of any of these publications, email Anita Stewart ([email protected]).
