本文介绍了一个特殊的问题,在翻译行为医学的重点是翻译方面的粮食不安全的研究。这期特刊的目的是增加证据基础,为短期和中期干预措施的制定和实施提供信息,并引发未来围绕这些重要主题的更多讨论。该特刊包括12篇文章和2篇评论,大致均匀分布在四个主题领域,包括亚人口粮食不安全风险因素;食物行为和心理社会变量;粮食不安全干预措施的实施和/或评估;以及粮食不安全相关的测量问题。这期特刊中的文章为粮食不安全的翻译文献提供了一些贡献。他们增加了我们的理解,即抑郁,压力和社会孤立(有时与语言障碍有关)可能在个人的粮食不安全体验中发挥重要作用。这些文章探讨了粮食不安全和粮食安全家庭在食品和杂货购物行为以及营养自我效能方面的差异。此外,作者还描述了旨在促进粮食不安全人口健康饮食和粮食获取的干预措施的实施和/或功效。最后,几项研究探讨了当前的测量问题,如家庭内部的主观性,粮食获取的感知和客观测量之间的脱节,以及需要更全面和更注重营养的测量方法。虽然有更深层次的系统性因素导致粮食不安全,但本特刊提供的调查结果可以帮助指导那些努力实现健康饮食的粮食不安全家庭应对当前面临的挑战。
This article introduces a special issue in Translational Behavioral Medicine that focuses on translational aspects of food insecurity research. The purpose of this special issue was to add to the evidence base to inform short- and intermediate-term intervention development and implementation and to spark additional future discourse around these important topics. The special issue included 12 articles and 2 commentaries roughly evenly split across four topic areas, including subpopulation food insecurity risk factors; food behaviors and psychosocial variables; implementation and/or evaluation of food insecurity interventions; and food insecurity-related measurement issues. The articles in this special issue offer a number of contributions to the translational literature specific to food insecurity. They add to our understanding that depression, stress, and social isolation (sometimes related to language barriers) may play a large role in individuals' food insecurity experience. The articles explored the differences between food insecure and food secure households in relation to food and grocery shopping behaviors, and nutritional self-efficacy. In addition, authors described the implementation and/or efficacy of interventions meant to promote healthful diets and food access among food insecure populations. And finally, several studies explored current measurement issues such as intra-household subjectivity, disconnect between perceived and objective measures of food access, and a need for more holistic and nutrition-focused measurement approaches. While there are deeper systemic factors driving food insecurity, the findings provided in this special issue can help guide those addressing the current challenges faced by food insecure households that struggle to achieve healthful diets.
