来自北卡罗来纳州美容与健康项目的研究人员在10家北卡罗来纳州美容院进行了一项观察性研究,以深入了解美容师和客户之间自然发生的对话,并评估美容院环境的特征,这些特征可能用于为基于美容院的健康促进干预措施的发展提供信息。结果显示,沙龙的社交环境是美容师和顾客公开谈论包括健康在内的许多主题的地方。信息、建议、评价、幽默和同理心通常在这些健康对话中分享。沙龙的物理环境的几个特征可以被调动起来以支持健康-获得健康食品、小吃和饮料;吸烟限制;以及包括健康信息的印刷或视频材料、标志或显示的可用性。规划沙龙为基础的健康促进干预措施,包括培训持牌美容师提供健康信息的影响进行了讨论,根据这些研究结果。
Researchers from the North Carolina BEAUTY and Health Project conducted an observational study in 10 North Carolina beauty salons to gain insight into naturally occurring conversations between cosmetologists and customers, and to assess features of the salon environment that might be used to inform the development of salon-based health promotion interventions. Results revealed that the social environment of a salon is a place where cosmetologists and customers talk openly about many subjects, including health. Information, advice, appraisal, humor, and empathy are typically shared in these health conversations. Several features of the physical environment of the salon may be mobilized to support health-access to healthy foods, snacks, and beverages; smoking restrictions; and availability of print or video materials, signs, or displays that include healthy messages. Implications for planning salon-based health promotion interventions-including the training of licensed cosmetologists to deliver health messages-are discussed in light of these findings.
