To examine associations of the US and community subjective social status (SSS) ladders with smoking status, at-risk drinking, fruit and vegetable intake, physical activity, and body mass index among 1467 church-going African American adults from a larger cohort study.
Regression analyses, adjusted for sociodemographics, examined associations between SSS ladders and health behaviors.
The SSS-US ladder was significantly associated with fruit and vegetable consumption (p = .007) and physical activity (p = .005). The SSS-community ladder was not significantly associated with any health behaviors.
Among this sample of African Americans, the SSS-US ladder is more predictive of some health behaviors than is the SSS-community ladder.
在一项更大规模队列研究中,对1467名去教堂做礼拜的非裔美国成年人进行调查,以研究美国主观社会地位(SSS)阶梯和社区主观社会地位阶梯与吸烟状况、危险饮酒、水果和蔬菜摄入量、身体活动以及体重指数之间的关联。
通过对社会人口统计学因素进行调整的回归分析,研究社会地位阶梯与健康行为之间的关联。
美国主观社会地位阶梯与水果和蔬菜消费(p = 0.007)以及身体活动(p = 0.005)显著相关。社区主观社会地位阶梯与任何健康行为均无显著关联。
在这个非裔美国人样本中,美国主观社会地位阶梯比社区主观社会地位阶梯更能预测某些健康行为。
