This study examined the interaction between parental limit setting of sedentary behaviors and health factors (weight status, physical activity [PA], fruit and vegetable [FV] intake) on standardized body mass index (zBMI) in African American adolescents.
Data were from 67 parent-adolescent dyads. Parental limit setting, PA and FV intake were assessed via self-report, and objective height and weight measurements were collected.
Regressions examined the interaction between parental limit setting and BMI, PA, FV intake on adolescent zBMI. The model for parent BMI and FV intake accounted for 31% of the variance in adolescent zBMI. A significant interaction for parent BMI by limit setting showed that as parental BMI increased, higher (vs. lower) limit setting was associated with lower adolescent zBMI. Higher parent FV consumption was associated with lower adolescent zBMI.
Future interventions should integrate parent limit setting and target parent fruit and vegetable intake for obesity prevention in underserved adolescents.
本研究考察了父母对久坐行为的限制与健康因素(体重状况、身体活动[PA]、水果和蔬菜[FV]摄入量)之间的相互作用,对非裔美国青少年的标准化体重指数(zBMI)的影响。
数据来自 67 对父母-青少年二人组。通过自我报告评估父母的限制设定、PA 和 FV 摄入量,并采集客观身高和体重测量值。
回归分析考察了父母限制设定与 BMI、PA、FV 摄入量对青少年 zBMI 的相互作用。父母 BMI 和 FV 摄入量的模型解释了青少年 zBMI 31%的方差。父母 BMI 与限制设定的交互作用显著,表明随着父母 BMI 的增加,较高(与较低)的限制设定与青少年 zBMI 较低相关。较高的父母 FV 摄入量与青少年 zBMI 较低相关。
未来的干预措施应整合父母的限制设定,并以服务不足的青少年为目标,针对父母的水果和蔬菜摄入量,以预防肥胖。
