Obesity risk reduction behaviours and psychosocial variables derived from the Theory of Planned Behaviour and Health Belief Model were measured. Acculturation was assessed using a modified Suinn-Lew Asian Self-Identity Acculturation Scale. Frequency distributions were delineated and stepwise regression analyses were analysed for different acculturation groups.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RESULTS<\/strong>: 65% of the respondents were female and the mean age of the sample was 26 years. Respondents indicated the most commonly practised behaviour to be eating home-cooked meals instead of restaurant-prepared foods. Perceived barriers to adopting obesity risk-reduction behaviours included convenience of consuming fast foods, cost, lack of time to prepare home-cooked meals, and the physical environment of unhealthy foods. In predicting intention to perform obesity risk-reduction behaviours, attitude was significant for &#039;western-identified&#039; individuals. In &#039;Asian-identified&#039; individuals, perceived behavioural control, self-efficacy and perceived benefits were salient.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONCLUSIONS<\/strong>: Nutrition educators working with Chinese Americans need to address self-efficacy in preparing plant-based, home-cooked meals and making healthy choices at fast-food restaurants with portion control. Concrete and perceived barriers such as lack of time and convenience need to be addressed in nutrition education interventions. Educators need to identify new channels and media outlets to disseminate practical, easy-to-implement behaviours for obesity risk reduction that are socially acceptable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","mots_cles":[],"class_list":["post-60483","resume","type-resume","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"adresse":"Department of Health and Nutrition Sciences, Montclair State University, Montclair, USA.","annee":"2013","mois":"5","numero":"","page":"","auteurs":[{"ID":47204,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 04:13:45","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 03:13:45","post_content":"","post_title":"Doreen Liou","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"doreen-liou","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 04:13:45","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 03:13:45","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/doreen-liou\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":60480,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 08:40:44","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:44","post_content":"","post_title":"Kathleen Bauer","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"kathleen-bauer","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 08:40:44","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:44","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/kathleen-bauer\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":60481,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 08:40:44","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:44","post_content":"","post_title":"Yeon Bai","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"yeon-bai","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 08:40:44","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:44","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/yeon-bai\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"sources":[{"ID":13954,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-03 19:04:08","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-03 18:04:08","post_content":"","post_title":"Perspectives in public health","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"perspectives-in-public-health","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-03 19:04:08","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-03 18:04:08","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/source\/perspectives-in-public-health\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"source","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":60482,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 08:40:45","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:45","post_content":"","post_title":"Perspect Public Health.","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"perspect-public-health","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 08:40:45","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 07:40:45","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/source\/perspect-public-health\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"source","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.6 (Yoast SEO v23.6) -
