Qualitatively assess culturally adapted lifestyle intervention, Papás Saludables, Niños Saludables (PSNS; Healthy Dads, Healthy Kids), for Hispanic fathers and children.
Semistructured interviews of parents and children after participation in 10-week PSNS program for Hispanic fathers and children. Qualitative data double-coded inductively and deductively until consensus reached.
Total of 26 fathers, 26 mothers, and 45 children interviewed. Parents and children had positive feedback about program content on culturally relevant nutrition and physical activity and reported improved father-child bonding. Mothers noted increased involvement among fathers in child's well-being. Participants suggested lengthening the program.
Papás Saludables, Niños Saludables is an innovative approach with promise in engaging Hispanic fathers and children in a lifestyle program that emphasizes the role of fathers in children's lifestyle behaviors. Familism, respeto (respect), and promoting father-child relationships were important to engage fathers. Results from this study will inform future trials of PSNS and help identify ways to increase engagement of Hispanic men in other programs.
定性评估文化适应性生活方式干预措施“Papás Saludables,Niños Saludables”(健康爸爸,健康孩子)对西班牙裔父亲和孩子的效果。
对参加为期 10 周的西班牙裔父亲和孩子的“Papás Saludables,Niños Saludables”项目后,对父母和孩子进行半结构化访谈。对定性数据进行双重归纳和演绎编码,直到达成共识。
共访谈了 26 位父亲、26 位母亲和 45 位孩子。父母和孩子对文化相关的营养和身体活动的项目内容给予了积极的反馈,并报告说改善了父子关系。母亲们注意到父亲们更多地参与到孩子的幸福中来。参与者建议延长项目时间。
“Papás Saludables,Niños Saludables”是一种有前途的创新方法,它可以吸引西班牙裔父亲和孩子参与强调父亲在孩子生活方式行为中的作用的生活方式项目。家庭主义、尊重和促进父子关系对吸引父亲很重要。本研究的结果将为“Papás Saludables,Niños Saludables”的未来试验提供信息,并帮助确定增加西班牙裔男性参与其他项目的方法。
