Diet and health behaviors and perceptions of adult urban Native American Indians in a large Midwestern city were evaluated for differences by tribal association, gender, and age grouping. The hypothesis was that human behavior is influenced by tribal association, gender, and age grouping in the subject population. The subjects included 33 men and 32 women, with 26 being Sioux; 22 Omaha; and 17 a combination of other tribes. The descriptive survey included two interviewer-administered 24-hour recalls. The majority of subjects were overweight or obese. Significant differences (P< .05) were observed in vitamin A and calcium intakes by tribal association. Men reported consuming significantly more (P< .05) kilocalories, vitamin C, and sodium. Over half the subjects consumed more than the recommended 20% to 35% kcal from fat, >or=10% kcal from saturated fat, and >or=300 mg cholesterol/d. Less than Estimated Average Requirements for vitamin A, vitamin C, and iron were consumed by 31%, 59%, and 6%, respectively; 79% consumed less than Adequate Intakes for calcium. Ninety-two percent consumed more than the Tolerable Upper Intake Level for sodium. Few differences were observed in the kilocalorie, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, and sodium intakes of these Native American Indians by tribal association, gender, or age grouping. Significant differences in percentages consuming alcohol were observed by gender (P< .05) and by age grouping (P< .01). A significant difference (P< .01) was observed by gender regarding the subjects' perceptions of their being alcoholics. Overall, few differences were observed in diet and health behaviors and perceptions of adult urban Native American Indians by tribal association, gender, and age grouping.
对美国中西部一个大城市中的成年都市印第安原住民的饮食、健康行为及认知进行了评估，以研究部落关联、性别和年龄分组之间的差异。研究假设是，人类行为受目标人群中的部落关联、性别和年龄分组影响。研究对象包括33名男性和32名女性，其中26名是苏族；22名是奥马哈族；17名是其他部落的组合。描述性调查包括两次由访谈员进行的24小时饮食回顾。大多数研究对象超重或肥胖。按部落关联划分，维生素A和钙的摄入量存在显著差异（P<0.05）。男性报告摄入的千卡、维生素C和钠显著更多（P<0.05）。超过半数的研究对象摄入的脂肪热量超过推荐的20%至35%，饱和脂肪热量超过或等于10%，胆固醇摄入量超过或等于300毫克/天。分别有31%、59%和6%的研究对象摄入的维生素A、维生素C和铁低于估计平均需求量；79%的研究对象钙摄入量低于适宜摄入量。92%的研究对象钠摄入量超过可耐受最高摄入量。按部落关联、性别或年龄分组，这些美国印第安原住民在千卡、维生素A、维生素C、钙和钠的摄入量方面几乎没有差异。按性别（P<0.05）和年龄分组（P<0.01）观察到饮酒比例存在显著差异。在研究对象对自己是否酗酒的认知方面，按性别观察到显著差异（P<0.01）。总体而言，按部落关联、性别和年龄分组，成年都市美国印第安原住民的饮食、健康行为及认知几乎没有差异。
