本研究的主要目的是创建日语健康饮食动机量表（MHES）的简化版本，并检查与代谢综合征（MetS）生物指标的相关性。在研究 1 中，由 532 名日本人（275 名男性和 257 名女性）完成了一份由饮食行为调节量表修改而成的 MHES（29 项）问卷；这构成了所使用的 MHES 的简短版本。在研究 2 中，对 443 名成年人（127 名男性和 316 名女性）对改善饮食习惯的态度量表（14 项）进行了调查，以测试简化版 MHES 的有效性。研究 3 检查了动机形式和 MetS 之间的相关性。研究 1 和 2 证实了 MHES 的简化版本具有良好的有效性。研究 3 报告了 MetS 状态和 MHES 之间的显着相关性。 MHES 的缩短版本有效且可靠。它应该为日本人提供一个有用的工具来衡量他们健康饮食行为的动机。
The main purpose of this research was to create a shortened version of the Motivation for Healthy Eating Scale (MHES) in Japanese and examine correlations with biological indicators of metabolic syndrome (MetS). In Study 1, a questionnaire, the MHES (29 items), modified from the Regulation of Eating Behavior scale, was completed by 532 Japanese (275 men and 257 women); this constituted the short version of the MHES used. In Study 2, a scale of attitudes toward improving eating habits (14 items) was investigated among 443 adults (127 men and 316 women) to test the validity of the shortened version of the MHES. Study 3 examined correlations between motivational forms and MetS. Studies 1 and 2 confirmed good validity of the shortened version of the MHES. Study 3 reported a significant correlation between MetS status and MHES. The shortened version of the MHES is valid and reliable. It should provide a useful tool for Japanese people to measure their motivation for healthy eating behaviors.
