To develop and test nutrition messages and supporting content with low-income mothers for use with theory-based interventions addressing fruit and vegetable consumption and child-feeding practices.
Six formative and 6 evaluative focus groups explored message concepts and tested messages, respectively.
Research facilities in Maryland, Texas, California, Florida, North Carolina, New York, Alabama, and Illinois.
Ninety-five low-income mothers of 2- to 5-year-old children; over half from households participating in a federal nutrition assistance program.
Preference for and comprehension of nutrition messages.
Qualitative data analysis procedures to generate common themes from transcripts and observers' notes.
Messages on role modeling, cooking and eating together, having patience when introducing new food items, and allowing children to serve themselves were well received. Mothers preferred messages that emphasized their role as a teacher and noted benefits such as their children becoming more independent and learning new skills. Mothers commonly doubted children's ability to accurately report when they are "full" and disliked messages encouraging mothers to allow children to "decide" whether and how much to eat.
This study generated 7 audience-tested messages for incorporation into nutrition education interventions targeting low-income mothers of preschool-age children.
为针对低收入母亲的以理论为基础的干预措施（包括水果和蔬菜摄入量以及儿童喂养行为）开发和测试营养信息及支持内容。
6 项形成性和 6 项评估性焦点小组分别对信息概念和信息内容进行探索和测试。
马里兰州、德克萨斯州、加利福尼亚州、佛罗里达州、北卡罗来纳州、纽约州、阿拉巴马州和伊利诺伊州的研究设施。
95 名 2 至 5 岁儿童的低收入母亲；其中一半以上来自参与联邦营养援助计划的家庭。
对营养信息的偏好和理解。
从转录本和观察员笔记中生成共同主题的定性数据分析程序。
强调角色扮演、一起做饭和吃饭、在引入新食物时要有耐心以及让孩子自己服务的信息受到了欢迎。母亲们更喜欢强调她们作为老师的角色，并指出孩子们变得更加独立和学习新技能等好处。母亲们普遍怀疑孩子们准确报告自己“吃饱”的能力，不喜欢鼓励母亲让孩子“决定”是否以及吃多少的信息。
本研究为针对低收入幼儿母亲的营养教育干预措施生成了 7 条经过受众测试的信息。
