目的：为了确定一次接触漫画（日本漫画艺术）与多种信息促进水果摄入量的影响零食选择在少数民族城市青年。（平均年龄10.8岁; 54%为女性; 74%的黑人/非裔美国人）参加布鲁克林的课后活动，纽约参与了一项试点研究，他们被随机分配接受漫画或非健康相关的通讯。在阅读他们的媒体后，参与者被提供了一份零食，可以从健康/不健康的选项中选择。次要结果包括知识，自我效能，以及与水果摄入量和媒体运输相关的结果预期。数据进行了分析，使用回归和配对t test.Results：漫画组参与者更有可能选择一个健康的零食，相比，注意力控制组（比值比= 3.6，95%置信区间：1.1-12.1，P = 0.04）。漫画组报告增加自我效能（P = .04）和更大的运输（沉浸到媒体）（P = .006）。结论和影响：结果表明，漫画漫画可能是一个有用的格式，以促进健康的零食选择在城市少数民族青年。
Objective: To determine whether a single exposure to a Manga comic (Japanese comic art) with multiple messages promoting fruit intake influenced snack selection in minority urban youth.Methods: Fifty-seven youth (mean age 10.8 y; 54% female; 74% black/African American) attending after-school programs in Brooklyn, NY participated in a pilot study in which they were randomly assigned to receive the comic or a non-health-related newsletter. After reading their media, participants were offered a snack and could choose from among healthy/unhealthy options. Secondary outcomes included knowledge, self-efficacy, and outcome expectations related to fruit intake and media transportation. Data were analyzed using regression and paired t test.Results: Comic group participants were significantly more likely to choose a healthy snack, compared to the Attention-control group (odds ratio = 3.6, 95% confidence interval: 1.1-12.1, P = .04). The Comic group reported increases in self-efficacy (P = .04) and greater transportation (immersion into media) (P = .006).Conclusions and Implications: Results suggest Manga comics may be a useful format to promote healthy snack selection in urban minority youth.
