Abstract

Obesity is widespread around the world, and its prevalence is closely related to unhealthy lifestyle. Clearly, behavior is the center of diet, physical activity, sleep, and other aspects of life. Now how to promote and maintain behavioral change has become the key to manage childhood obesity. In recent years, the theories and technologies of behavioral change are widely used in behavioral intervention for obese children, aiming to change the unhealthy lifestyle, improve cognitive levels, reduce negative emotions, and promote the effectiveness of obesity management.

Key words
