本研究的目的是从美国注册的患有严重精神疾病 (SMI) 的超重和肥胖拉丁美洲人的角度探讨参与健康行为改变的感知益处。对 20 名患有 SMI 的肥胖拉丁裔进行定性、半结构化访谈，他们参加了一项随机试验，评估适合 SMI 患者的动机性健康促进干预措施的有效性。超重和肥胖的拉丁裔参与者认为，参与健康行为改变会对身心健康有益，包括慢性病管理、体重和身体成分的变化以及自尊的增强。将体力活动和健康饮食与心理健康和福祉的改善明确联系起来的干预措施可能会激励患有 SMI 的拉丁裔采取健康行为改变。
The objective of this study was to explore the perceived benefits of engaging in health behavior change from the viewpoint of overweight and obese Latinos with severe mental illness (SMI) enrolled in the U.S. Qualitative, semistructured interviews were conducted with 20 obese Latinos with SMI who were enrolled in a randomized trial evaluating the effectiveness of a motivational health promotion intervention adapted for persons with SMI. Overweight and obese Latino participants believed that engaging in health behavior change would have both physical and mental health benefits, including chronic disease management, changes in weight and body composition, and increased self-esteem. Interventions that explicitly link physical activity and healthy eating to improvements in mental health and well-being may motivate Latinos with SMI to adopt health behavior change.
