确定大休斯顿地区亚裔印第安人的健康观点，以指导一项量身定做的全社区调查。四个不同年龄、性别和出生地的焦点小组被进行，在这些小组中，参与者被询问他们对特定健康话题的看法。对10名社区领导人进行了关键线人访谈，以验证焦点小组的反应。对焦点小组和关键线人访谈的录音进行转录和分析。糖尿病、癌症和高血压是主要的健康问题。共同的主题是久坐不动的生活方式和糟糕的健康素养。年龄较大的参与者更容易接受患有家族性高血压和高胆固醇。女性更关心家庭成员的健康和饮食习惯。在饮食习惯、体力活动、西药的使用以及基于出生地的吸烟方面，观点各不相同。关键线人访谈的答复证实了焦点小组的调查结果。根据性别、年龄和出生地的不同，亚裔印度人对健康的看法可能不同。
Identify health perspectives among Asian Indians in greater Houston area, to guide a tailored community wide survey. Four focus groups of different ages, gender, and nativity were conducted at which participants were asked for their opinions about specific health topics. Key informant interviews were conducted with ten community leaders to validate focus group responses. Recordings from focus groups and key informant interviews were transcribed and analyzed. Diabetes, cancer, and hypertension were primary health concerns. Common themes were sedentary lifestyle and poor health literacy. Older participants were more accepting of having familial hypertension and high cholesterol. Women were more concerned about health of family members and dietary habits. Perspectives differed on eating habits, physical activity, use of Western medicine, and smoking based on nativity. Responses from key informant interviews validated focus group findings. Perspectives on health may differ among Asian Indians depending on gender, age, and nativity.
