Focus groups, utilizing the Theory of Planned Behavior, examined the beliefs and perceived norms regarding body image in a sample of urban African-American and Latino teenagers (N = 83, 18-19 years old) from Texas. Cultural eating (behavioral belief) explained the acceptance and tolerance of overweight. Popularity of hip-hop fashion and limited income explicated peer and familial normative beliefs, respectively. Thinness equated HIV infection in African-Americans (parental normative belief). Barriers to healthy eating and active living (control beliefs) included willpower, laziness, fast food, and excessive work. Findings can guide the development and implementation of culturally appropriate obesity interventions for African-American and Latino adolescents.
采用计划行为理论，对来自德克萨斯州的 83 名城市非裔美国人和拉丁裔青少年（年龄 18-19 岁）进行了关于身体形象的信念和感知规范的焦点小组研究。文化饮食（行为信念）解释了对超重的接受和容忍。嘻哈时尚的流行和有限的收入分别解释了同伴和家庭规范信念。非裔美国人认为瘦等同于感染艾滋病毒（父母规范信念）。健康饮食和积极生活的障碍（控制信念）包括意志力、懒惰、快餐和过度工作。研究结果可以为非裔美国人和拉丁裔青少年制定和实施文化上适当的肥胖干预措施提供指导。
