This study was conducted with 62 Mexican-American migrant farm workers at four different sites in northern Illinois. An established English and a newly developed pilot Spanish version of the health-promoting lifestyle profile was used. The concept of health-promoting lifestyle appeared to be culturally relevant to study participants. English-speaking migrant workers scored significantly lower than Spanish-speaking workers on the dimensions of self-actualization, exercise, and stress management. Patterns of scores among both groups were highest in self-actualization and interpersonal support, and lowest in health responsibility and exercise. Further research in health-promoting behaviors with all cultural groups and socioeconomic levels of society will contribute to achievement of the World Health Organization's goal, health for all by the year 2000.
这项研究在伊利诺伊州北部四个不同地点的62名墨西哥裔美国流动农场工人中进行。采用了已有的英文版和新开发的试点西班牙文版促进健康生活方式量表。促进健康生活方式的概念似乎与研究参与者的文化相关。在自我实现、锻炼和压力管理方面，说英语的流动工人得分显著低于说西班牙语的工人。两组的得分模式在自我实现和人际支持方面最高，在健康责任和锻炼方面最低。对所有文化群体和社会经济水平的人群进行促进健康行为的进一步研究，将有助于实现世界卫生组织的目标，即到2000年实现全民健康。
