Abstract
⺠This is a systematic review of the effectiveness of physical activity interventions. ⺠We only included programs targeting socioeconomically disadvantaged communities. ⺠Interventions targeting groups were effective for adults but not for children. ⺠Community-wide interventions were effective in producing small changes in activity. ⺠Evidence regarding effectiveness of interventions targeting individuals is required.
