非洲裔美国人（AAs）比其他美国人更不可能进行身体活动，并且像所有美国人一样，他们每天摄入的水果和蔬菜（F & V）少于推荐的五份。这项名为“健康身体/健康精神”的研究有两个主要目的：（1）与标准健康教育材料相比，测试文化定制自助饮食（关注F & V摄入量）和身体活动（PA）干预的有效性，以及（2）测试使用动机访谈（MI）的有效性，通过电话传递，以修改PA和饮食习惯。该研究是一项随机有效性试验，有三个实验条件。第1组（比较）将接受标准（现有商业）营养和PA干预材料，第2组（TX 1）将接受与第1组强度相似的文化定制自助营养和PA干预，第3组（TX 2）将接受与第2组相同的干预，加上四次基于MI的电话咨询。参与者将是通过当地黑人教堂招募的AA成年人。尽管广泛使用MI来改变成瘾行为，但这是第一个采用MI来解决饮食和PA的对照现场试验之一。其次，这是第一个研究，以测试自助饮食和PA干预的有效性为非洲裔美国人的教会人口量身定制。
African-Americans (AAs) are significantly less likely to be physically active than other Americans, and, like all Americans, they consume fewer than the recommended five fruit and vegetable (F & V) servings per day. This study, titled Healthy Body/Healthy Spirit, has two primary aims: (1) to test the effectiveness of a culturally tailored self-help dietary (focusing on F & V intake) and physical activity (PA) intervention compared to standard health education materials, and (2) to test the effectiveness of using Motivational Interviewing (MI), delivered by telephone, to modify PA and dietary habits. The study is a randomized effectiveness trial with three experimental conditions. Group 1 (comparison) will receive standard (existing commercial) nutrition and PA intervention materials, Group 2 (TX1) will receive a culturally tailored self-help nutrition and PA intervention of similar intensity as Group 1, and Group 3 (TX2) will receive the same intervention as Group 2, plus four telephone counseling calls based on MI. Participants will be AA adults recruited through local black churches. Despite the extensive use of MI to modify addictive behaviors, this represents one of the first controlled field trials to employ MI to address diet and PA. Secondly, this is one of the first studies to test the effectiveness of a self-help diet and PA intervention tailored for an African-American church population.
