在美国，非裔美国人面临着大量与饮食有关的健康问题。例如，非裔美国成年人患糖尿病的可能性是白种人的1.6倍。低收入社区的个人可能面临更大的风险，因为他们通常无法获得健康食品。由于非裔美国人社区中存在严重的饮食相关问题，公共卫生研究人员呼吁采取考虑文化和饮食习惯之间关系的健康促进方法。在本文中，我们讨论了解决低收入非洲裔美国人社区饮食相关健康差异的技术设计的三个重要考虑因素。这些考虑包括文化相关性的设计，健康行为的建模，以及通过使用说服的社会心理学理论来鼓励健康行为。我们将以游戏设计为例说明如何将这些考虑因素整合到新技术的开发中。
In the United States, African Americans face a disproportionate amount of diet-related health problems. For example, African American adults are 1.6 times more likely to have diabetes than their Caucasian counterparts. Individuals in low-income communities may face a greater risk because they typically have less access to healthy foods. Due to the significant diet-related problems within the African American community, public health researchers call for approaches to health promotion that take into account the relationship between culture and dietary habits. In this paper, we discuss three important considerations for the design of technologies that address the diet-related health disparities in low-income African American communities. These considerations include designing for cultural relevancy, modeling health behavior, and encouraging healthy behavior through the use of social psychological theories of persuasion. We use a game design example to illustrate how each of these considerations can be incorporated into the development of new technology.
