To characterize barriers to healthy eating (BHE) and physical activity (BPA) among participants in a workplace weight management intervention.
Steps to health participants completed a questionnaire to ascertain barriers to physical activity and healthy eating faced. Exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the factor structure for BPA and BHE. The relationships of these factors with accelerometer data and dietary behaviors were assessed using linear regression.
Barriers to physical activity included time constraints and lack of interest and motivation, and to healthy eating, lack of self-control and convenience, and lack of access to healthy foods. Higher BHE correlated with higher sugary beverage intake but not fruit and vegetable and fat intake.
To improve their effectiveness, workplace weight management programs should consider addressing and reducing barriers to healthy eating and physical activity.
描述参与工作场所体重管理干预的个体在健康饮食(BHE)和身体活动(BPA)方面所面临的障碍。
Steps to health 参与者完成了一份问卷,以确定他们在身体活动和健康饮食方面所面临的障碍。采用探索性因子分析确定 BPA 和 BHE 的因子结构。使用线性回归评估这些因素与加速度计数据和饮食行为之间的关系。
身体活动的障碍包括时间限制以及缺乏兴趣和动力,而健康饮食的障碍包括缺乏自我控制和便利性,以及缺乏健康食品的获取途径。较高的 BHE 与较高的含糖饮料摄入相关,但与水果和蔬菜以及脂肪摄入无关。
为了提高工作场所体重管理计划的效果,应考虑解决和减少健康饮食和身体活动方面的障碍。
