Although obesogenic behaviors (physical activity and/or sedentary behavior and dietary intake) are known predictors of childhood weight status, little is known about mother and child behaviors contributing to obesogenic behaviors and obesity in Hispanic preschool children, whose obesity rate is higher than in non-Hispanic Whites and non-Hispanic Blacks. The purpose of this cross-sectional, descriptive study was to examine relationships among child temperament, maternal behaviors (feeding practices and parenting style), child obesogenic behaviors, and child weight status in 100 Hispanic preschool children. Results showed that higher scores on the negative affectivity dimension of child temperament were associated with higher scores on the dimension of permissive parenting, and permissive parenting was associated with less time spent in sedentary behaviors ( = -3.53, confidence interval [-7.52, -0.90]). Findings can guide school nurses in developing interventions that consider child temperament and parenting style to promote nonobesogenic behavior in Hispanic preschoolers.
尽管致胖行为（身体活动和/或久坐行为以及饮食摄入）是儿童体重状况的已知预测因素，但对于导致西班牙裔学龄前儿童出现致胖行为和肥胖的母婴行为却知之甚少，该群体的肥胖率高于非西班牙裔白人及非西班牙裔黑人。这项横断面描述性研究的目的是调查100名西班牙裔学龄前儿童的儿童气质、母亲行为（喂养方式和育儿风格）、儿童致胖行为和儿童体重状况之间的关系。结果显示，儿童气质的消极情感维度得分较高与放任型育儿维度得分较高相关，且放任型育儿与久坐行为时间较短相关（β = -3.53，置信区间[-7.52, -0.90]）。研究结果可为学校护士制定干预措施提供指导，这些干预措施可考虑儿童气质和育儿风格，以促进西班牙裔学龄前儿童的非致胖行为。
