Her research primarily examines school-based programs that target positive health-related outcomes, such as reducing childhood obesity and increasing physical activity, fitness, motor skill competency, and psychological variables related to health. Additionally, Dr. Webster researches the relationship between physical activity/ motor skill competency and academic achievement to promote more inclusion of physical activity into the school day, as well as school and state policies that directly relate to improving pediatric health. - See more at: http://www.lsu.edu/chse/kinesiology/faculty_listing/webster.php#sthash.kBSjlDpg.dpuf
