This article describes a model which organizes beliefs and practices of women of Mexican descent and describes counseling approaches for each. The four categories of beliefs and practices are beneficial, harmless, harmful and uncertain. Counseling ideas for each of the categories includes approaches to encourage, ignore, dissuade or observe to categorize the belief later. Situational examples correspond to each category to illustrate how the model can be incorporated into practice. The model provides a methodology for assessment and intervention which considers and respects the cultural elements that influence breastfeeding.
本文描述了一个组织墨西哥裔女性的信念和行为的模型，并阐述了针对每一种信念和行为的咨询方法。信念和行为的四个类别分别是有益、无害、有害和不确定。每个类别的咨询思路包括鼓励、忽视、劝阻或观察以便之后对信念进行分类的方法。每个类别都配有情境示例，以说明该模型如何应用于实践。该模型提供了一种评估和干预方法，该方法考虑并尊重影响母乳喂养的文化因素。
