To verify and explicate the impact of marianismo beliefs on the physical activity behaviors of immigrant Latinas.
Twenty-eight immigrant Latinas, aged 18 to 40 years, were recruited to participate in two focus group interviews. Data collection and analysis were driven by Spradley's Developmental Research Sequence.
Two domain terms were identified: "Life is too fast here" and "The woman is the center of the family." Six included terms and five cultural themes were specified.
A combination of marianismo beliefs, acculturation stress, loss of social support, and conflicts between collectivist and individualist values combine to adversely influence physical activity behaviors of immigrant Latinas.
Physical activity interventions for Hispanic women should capitalize on the strengths of the marianista, address factors leading to acculturation stress among women and their families, and establish bridges of social support among new groups of immigrants.
验证并阐释圣母玛利亚信仰对移民拉丁裔女性身体活动行为的影响。
招募了 28 名年龄在 18 至 40 岁之间的移民拉丁裔女性参加了两次焦点小组访谈。数据收集和分析是由斯普拉德利的发展研究序列驱动的。
确定了两个领域术语：“这里的生活节奏太快了”和“女性是家庭的中心”。指定了六个包含术语和五个文化主题。
圣母玛利亚信仰、文化适应压力、社会支持的丧失以及集体主义和个人主义价值观之间的冲突相结合，对移民拉丁裔女性的身体活动行为产生了不利影响。
针对西班牙裔女性的身体活动干预措施应该利用玛利亚主义的优势，解决导致女性及其家庭文化适应压力的因素，并在新移民群体之间建立社会支持的桥梁。
