Objectives: To investigate the relationship between theoretically based psychosocial constructs and dietary components among overweight men. Methods: Participants were 441 men (BMI M = 34.2). Psychosocial constructs included self-efficacy, decisional balance, social support, and behavior change strategies. Dietary components were fat, fiber, and fruit and vegetable intake. Results: All significant findings were in the expected direction. Multiple regression models indicated that the psychosocial factors accounted for the most variance in vegetable intake (R-2=.13) and the least variance in fat (R-2=.05). Conclusions: Theoretically based psychosocial constructs were related to overweight men's dietary intake and have potential for use in tailored behavior-change interventions.
