背景每天5个，更健康是一个简单的信息，鼓励人们吃更多的水果和蔬菜。西雅图每日五餐工作场所的调查者设计并评估了一种干预措施，按照行为改变的阶段进行组织，以增加工作场所范围内的水果和蔬菜消费。我们招募了28个工作场所的子宫内膜异位症和随机14干预和14个对照。干预解决了工作环境的变化和个人层面的行为变化。在每个工作场所，员工咨询委员会在研究干预人员的协助下实施了该计划。通过调查每个工地125名员工的横截面样本，我们比较了2年随访时工地平均水果和蔬菜消费量与基线水平。非侵入性的网站水平的指标，包括平板观察和自助餐厅检查表也被使用。2年时干预工地和对照工地的差异为0.5和0.2，干预效果为每日0.3份（P < 0.05）。水果和蔬菜消费的其他措施，包括不引人注目的指标，支持干预的有效性。这种简单的5天干预是可行的，可接受的使用在工作场所与寄生虫。在干预工作场所，水果和蔬菜消费量有显著差异。这种工作场所干预可以在人口基础上实现重要的健康效益，因为它有可能接触到大量的人。(C)2001年美国健康基金会和学术出版社。
Background. 5 a Day for Better Health is a simple message encouraging people to eat more fruits and vegetables. The Seattle 5 a Day worksite investigators designed and evaluated an intervention, organized on stages of behavioral change, to increase worksitewide fruit and vegetable consumption.Methods. We recruited 28 worksites with cafeterias and randomized 14 to intervention and 14 to control. The intervention addressed both changes in the work environment and individual level behavior change. In each worksite, an employee advisory board, with study interventionist assistance, implemented the program. By surveying cross-sectional samples of 125 employees per worksite, we compared worksite mean fruit and vegetable consumption at 2-year follow-up with that at baseline. Unobtrusive site-level indicators including plate observation and cafeteria checklist were also used.Results. The difference at 2 years was 0.5 for the intervention worksites and 0.2 for the control worksites, with an intervention effect of 0.3 daily serving (P < 0.05). Other measures of fruit and vegetable consumption, including unobtrusive indicators, supported the effectiveness of the intervention.Conclusions. This simple 5 a Day intervention is feasible and acceptable for use in worksites with cafeterias. There was a significant differential increase in fruit and vegetable consumption in the intervention worksites. This kind of worksite intervention can achieve important health benefits on a population basis, because of its potential to reach large numbers of people.
