Exposure to a Multilevel, Multicomponent Obesity Prevention Intervention (Oprevent2) in Rural Native American Communities: Variability and Association with Change in Diet Quality
The OPREVENT2 obesity prevention trial was a multilevel multicomponent (MLMC) intervention implemented in rural Native American communities in the Midwest and Southwest U.S. Intervention components were delivered through local food stores, worksites, schools, community action coalitions, and by social and community media. Due to the complex nature of MLMC intervention trials, it is useful to assess participants’ exposure to each component of the …
Qualitative perspectives of the North Carolina healthy food small retailer program among customers in participating stores located in food deserts
Findings can inform future healthy corner store initiatives in terms of framing a rationale for funding or policies by focusing on increased food access among vulnerable populations
Perceived barriers and facilitators to participating in the North Carolina Healthy Food Small Retailer Program: A mixed-methods examination considering investment effectiveness
Objective: The North Carolina Legislature appropriated funds in 2016–2019 for the Healthy Food Small Retailer Program (HFSRP), providing small retailers located in food deserts with equipment to stock nutrient-dense foods and beverages. The study aimed to: (1) examine factors facilitating and constraining implementation of, and participation in, the HFSRP from the perspective of storeowners and (2) measure and evaluate the impact and effectivenes…
Feeding Low-Income Children during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Feeding Low-Income Children during the Pandemic U.S. government programs serve nearly 35 million children daily, delivering vital nutrition and financial assistance to families in need. With such p...
Latent Class Analysis Offers Insight into the Complex Food Environments of Native American Communities: Findings from the Randomly Selected Oprevent2 Trial Baseline Sample
Native Americans (NAs) experience a high burden of obesity and diabetes, yet previous research has not holistically described the unique food environments of NA communities. The objective of this paper is to describe the subgroups and demographic characteristics related to NA household food environments. Surveys collected food getting, food assistance, and sociodemographic variables from randomly selected adults from three NA communities ( n = 30…
Healthy Food Retail during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Challenges and Future Directions
Disparities in dietary behaviors have been directly linked to the food environment, including access to retail food outlets. The Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to major changes in the distribution, sale, purchase, preparation, and consumption of food in the United States (US). This paper reflects on those changes and provides recommendations for research to understand the impact of the pandemic on the retail food environm…
A Model Depicting the Retail Food Environment and Customer Interactions: Components, Outcomes, and Future Directions
The retail food environment (RFE) has important implications for dietary intake and health, and dramatic changes in RFEs have been observed over the past few decades and years. Prior conceptual models of the RFE and its relationships with health and behavior have played an important role in guiding research; yet, the convergence of RFE changes and scientific advances in the field suggest the time is ripe to revisit this conceptualization. In this…
Oprevent2: Design of a multi-institutional intervention for obesity control and prevention for American Indian adults
Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02803853 (June 10, 2016)
Self‐Reported Physical Activity Among American Indian Adults From Two Diverse Regions
PURPOSE: Physical activity may be a protective factor against the disproportionate rates of chronic diseases faced by American Indians. Nevertheless, few studies report any cultural adoptions made to capture physical activity behaviors among this hard-to-reach population. Existing studies reporting the prevalence of physical activity among American Indians are often aggregated and tend to obscure regional, local, and tribal-level variations. This…
Developing an agenda for research about policies to improve access to healthy foods in rural communities: A concept mapping study
This collaborative, trans-disciplinary, participatory process, created a map to guide and prioritize research about polices to improve healthy, affordable food access in rural communities
Field validation of secondary data sources for enumerating retail tobacco outlets in a state without tobacco outlet licensing
Engaging Tribal Leaders in an American Indian Healthy Eating Project Through Modified Talking Circles
Frequently used in the American Indian (AI) community and proven to be a valuable tool in health research, a talking circle is a method used by a group to discuss a topic in an egalitarian and nonconfrontational manner. Using community-based participatory research, a modified Talking Circle format was developed for engaging tribal leaders in an American Indian Healthy Eating Project in North Carolina. The culturally informed formative research ap…
