BACKGROUND
This study explored the health philosophy and practice orientation of RDNs in the United States.
METHODS
A randomly selected group of RDNs were recruited to take an online survey using a reduced version of Integrative Medicine practice (IM-30). Confirmatory factor analysis, analyses of variance, and non-parametric tests were used to investigate the relationships between dietetic professionals' personal health philosophy, lifestyle, and orientation to Integrative Medicine.
RESULTS
Overall construct validity of the IM-26 scale was demonstrated by Cronbach's α with reliabilities ranging from 0.766 to 0.89. Results from chi-square test of goodness-of-fit test (N = 477, χ2 = 228.72, p = 0.123) and RMSEA of 0.016 showed good model fit. IM orientation varied significantly by work setting and certification in one or more CAM therapies.
CONCLUSIONS
The orientation towards Integrative Medicine for a majority of US dietitians is in the awareness and learning phases of adoption.
背景
本研究探讨了美国注册营养师的健康理念和实践方向。
方法
采用简化版综合医学实践（IM-30），随机选取一组注册营养师进行在线调查。采用验证性因子分析、方差分析和非参数检验来研究营养专业人员个人健康理念、生活方式和综合医学取向之间的关系。
结果
IM-26 量表的整体结构效度通过 Cronbach's α 得到验证，可信度范围为 0.766 至 0.89。拟合优度检验的卡方检验（N=477，χ2=228.72，p=0.123）和 RMSEA 为 0.016 的结果表明模型拟合良好。在一个或多个补充和替代医学疗法的工作环境和认证方面，综合医学取向存在显著差异。
结论
大多数美国营养师对综合医学的取向处于采用的意识和学习阶段。
