Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: To inform dietary interventions, it is important to understand antecedents of recommended (henceforth: healthy) dietary behaviors, beyond dietary beliefs and self-efficacy. We used the validated \"Eating Identity Type Inventory\" to assess the extent to which participants identified as healthy eaters, meat eaters, emotional eaters or picky eaters. We examined correlations between participants\' race/ethnicity and other socio-demographic characteristics and affinity with these eating identities, how affinity with these eating identities correlated with self-reports of dietary beliefs, self-efficacy, dietary behaviors and Body Mass Index (BMI), and how well affinity with these eating identities predicted self-reported dietary behaviors and BMI, as compared to self-reported dietary beliefs and self-efficacy.
UNASSIGNED: In an online survey, a diverse sample of 340 Los Angeles County adults reported eating identities, dietary beliefs, and self-efficacy, dietary behaviors and BMI.
UNASSIGNED: Pearson correlations revealed that identifying more as a healthy eater was positively associated with self-reports of being non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic mixed race, older, and college-educated, while identifying more as a meat eater was positively associated with self-reports of being non-Hispanic Black, younger, and male (α = 0.05). Pearson correlations also showed that healthy eaters had more accurate dietary beliefs and self-efficacy, and emotional eaters had lower self-efficacy (α = 0.05). In linear regressions, identifying more as a healthy eater was associated with self-reporting healthier dietary behaviors and lower BMI, and identifying more as a meat eater and emotional eater was associated with reporting less healthy dietary behaviors and higher BMI, even after accounting for correlations with socio-demographics, dietary beliefs, and self-efficacy (α = 0.05).
UNASSIGNED: Our findings highlight the importance of eating identities in understanding dietary behaviors and outcomes, with implications for dietary interventions.
摘要:
为饮食干预提供信息,重要的是要了解推荐(以下简称:健康)饮食行为的前因,超越饮食信念和自我效能感。我们使用经过验证的“饮食身份类型清单”来评估参与者被确定为健康饮食者的程度,肉食者,情绪化的食客或挑食者。我们检查了参与者的种族/民族和其他社会人口统计学特征之间的相关性,以及与这些饮食身份的亲和力,与这些饮食身份的亲和力如何与饮食信念的自我报告相关,自我效能感,饮食行为和体重指数(BMI),以及与这些饮食身份的亲和力如何预测自我报告的饮食行为和BMI,与自我报告的饮食信念和自我效能感相比。
在一项在线调查中,来自洛杉矶县的340名成年人的不同样本报告了饮食身份,饮食信念,和自我效能感,饮食行为和BMI。
皮尔逊相关性表明,确定更多的健康饮食与非西班牙裔白人的自我报告呈正相关,非西班牙裔混血儿,年长的,受过大学教育,虽然确定更多的肉食者与非西班牙裔黑人的自我报告呈正相关,年轻,和男性(α=0.05)。皮尔逊相关性还表明,健康的饮食者有更准确的饮食信念和自我效能,情绪饮食者的自我效能感较低(α=0.05)。在线性回归中,确定更多的健康饮食者与自我报告更健康的饮食行为和更低的BMI相关,识别更多的肉食者和情绪食者与报告不太健康的饮食行为和更高的BMI有关,即使在考虑了与社会人口统计学的相关性之后,饮食信念,和自我效能感(α=0.05)。
我们的研究结果强调了饮食身份在理解饮食行为和结果方面的重要性。对饮食干预的影响。
