在美国，少数族裔在超重和肥胖人口中所占比例过高，西班牙裔人是肥胖和肥胖相关疾病和残疾风险最高的群体。大多数针对一般人群的减肥干预措施在少数民族中不太成功，迫切需要为这些群体制定更有效的干预措施。本文探讨了文化的重要性，在发展中的“文化能力”的减肥干预少数民族人口，并讨论了具体的文化介导的因素，应考虑在设计和实施的治疗干预。虽然特别关注西班牙裔人口，我们也解决相关的问题，以其他多民族社会。
In the United States, ethnic minorities are overrepresented among the overweight and obese population, with Hispanic individuals being among the groups most at risk for obesity and obesity-related disease and disability. Most weight-loss interventions designed for the general population have been less successful with individuals from ethnic minorities and there is a pressing need to develop more effective interventions for these groups. This paper examines the importance of culture in the development of “culturally competent” weight-loss interventions for ethnic minority populations, and discusses specific culturally mediated factors that should be considered in the design and implementation of treatment interventions. While specifically focusing on Hispanic populations, we also address issues of relevance to other multiethnic societies.
