OBJECTIVE
This study assessed maternal attitudes about the physician's role in child health promotion.
METHODS
Home interviews were conducted with 200 Massachusetts mothers (with one child age 2 to 3 years) enrolled in a health maintenance organization.
RESULTS
Mothers chose growth and nutrition, physical development, and illness as the most important topics and felt that providers have the ability to prevent problems and to help. Psychosocial and safety issues were less important, although mothers felt susceptible to these issues and believed they greatly affected children's health.
CONCLUSIONS
On all issues, mothers believed physicians were more effective in helping families after, not before, problems arose. The Health Belief Model provided insight into attitudes and possible interventions.
目的
本研究评估了母亲们对医生在儿童健康促进中作用的态度。
方法
对200名加入健康维护组织的马萨诸塞州母亲（育有一名2至3岁儿童）进行了家庭访谈。
结果
母亲们将生长与营养、身体发育和疾病选为最重要的话题，并认为医疗服务提供者有能力预防问题并提供帮助。心理社会和安全问题不太重要，尽管母亲们觉得自己容易受到这些问题的影响，并认为它们会极大地影响孩子的健康。
结论
在所有问题上，母亲们认为医生在问题出现后帮助家庭比在问题出现前更有效。健康信念模型为态度和可能的干预措施提供了见解。
