Objectives and Subobjectives
Goal:
Improve health,
fitness, and quality of life through daily physical activity.
As a result of the Healthy People 2010 Midcourse
Review, changes were made to the Healthy People 2010 objectives and
subobjectives.
These changes are
specific to the following situations:
- Changes in the wording of an
objective to more accurately describe what is being measured.
-
Changes to reflect a different data
source or new science.
-
Changes resulting from the
establishment of a baseline and a target (that is, when a formerly
developmental objective or subobjective became measurable).
-
Deletion of an objective or
subobjective that lacked a data source.
-
Correction of errors and omissions
in Healthy People 2010.
Revised baselines and targets for measurable objectives and
subobjectives do not fall into any of the above categories and, thus, are not
considered a midcourse review change.1
When changes were made to an objective, three
sections are displayed:
-
In the
Original Objective section, the objective as published in Healthy People 2010 in
2000 is shown.
-
In the
Objective With Revisions section, strikethrough indicates text deleted, and
underlining is used to show new text.
-
In the Revised Objective section, the objective appears as revised
as a result of the midcourse review.
Details of the objectives and subobjectives in this
focus area, including any changes made at the midcourse, appear on the following
pages.

baseline and target revisions.
