- Abstract: Purpose: To describe how research evidence and non-research-based information are used in testimony and other legislative documents used in arguments for and against physical activity-related bills in Minnesota.
Design: Content analysis.
Setting: Documents and oral testimony archived by the Minnesota State Legislature from 2007 to 2011.
Subjects: Not applicable.
Measures: A coding instrument was developed to measure descriptive features of materials (e.g., length, document type) and the presence or absence of certain types of research evidence and non-research-based information.
Analysis: Frequencies of variables and measures of associations using Pearson χ (2) tests.
Results: Over a third (36%) of the sample contained research evidence, and 88% of the sample contained non-research-based information. Compared to materials related to physical activity, materials related to built environment were significantly less likely to reference research evidence.
Conclusion: Despite an abundance of evidence, research evidence was present in only about one-third of the sample. There may be opportunities during legislative discussions on the built environment for obesity-related data to help make the case for sound policies. - References: Am J Public Health. 2009 Sep;99(9):1576-83.
