OBJECTIVE: To examine the associations of cognitive, behavioral, and physical stress with health-promoting nutrition behaviors (HPNB) among African American women who are at risk for or diagnosed with hypertension and/or related health conditions. METHODS: Eighty women completed demographic and medical data forms and questionnaires to assess levels of stress and HPNB. RESULTS: HPNB was negatively associated with behavioral stress and positively associated with physical stress among the participants. CONCLUSIONS: This research suggested strategies for increasing HPNB in African American women. Future research should focus on how these women cope with stress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
