“…Decisionmaking skills were significantly associated with self-efficacy, which is in line with the findings of previous studies (Kuo et al 2014). The lack of a significant association between diet knowledge and self-efficacy, however, was not surprising, because similar results have been reported (Burner et al 2013;Jung et al 2015). The majority of the participants in this study suffered from mid-and long-term diabetes and diet knowledge has been linked to feelings of deprivation and restriction in such patients.…”

Diabetes appraisal plays a mediating role in the association between self-management barriers and self-efficacy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Reflecting on patients' appraisal of diabetes can help to develop evidence-based and patient-centered interventions. Interventions that enhance individuals' positive appraisal of diabetes have the potential to buffer the negative effects of self-management barriers on self-efficacy.

Diabetes is a chronic, complex condition requiring sound knowledge and self-management skills to optimize glycemic control and health outcomes. Dietary intake and physical activity are key diabetes self-management (DSM) behaviors that require tailored education and support. Electronic health (eHealth) technologies have a demonstrated potential for assisting individuals with DSM behaviors. This review provides examples of technologies used to support nutrition and physical activity behaviors in the context of DSM. Technologies covered include those widely used for DSM, such as web-based programs and mobile phone and smartphone applications. In addition, examples of novel tools such as virtual and augmented reality, video games, computer vision for dietary carbohydrate monitoring, and wearable devices are provided. The challenges to, and facilitators for, the use of eHealth technologies in DSM are discussed. Strategies to support the implementation of eHealth technologies within practice and suggestions for future research to enhance nutrition and physical activity behaviors as a part of broader DSM are provided.

“…According to the most recent U.S. Census data, Hispanics accounted for 16% of the U.S. population (50.5 million people) in 2010, up from 13% (35.3 million people) in 2000 (U.S. Census Bureau, 2010). As research on health disparities and inequalities grows (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2010), it has become apparent that Hispanic Americans face a distinct set of health challenges, including disproportionately higher health risks, decreased access to health services, reduced likelihood of receiving needed health care, and lower quality of care as compared to non-Hispanic Whites (Burner, Menchine, Taylor, & Arora, 2013;Caballero, 2005;Elder et al, 2006;Gary, Narayan, Gregg, Beckles, & Saaddine, 2003;Lorig, Ritter, & Gonzalez, 2003;Munoz & Mendelson, 2005). These health needs demand increased research regarding avenues for addressing disparities among Hispanic Americans.…”

Chronic Disease and Depression Among Hispanic Americans

Hispanic Americans are the fastest growing minority group in the United States. They face a distinct set of health challenges, resulting in persistent health disparities. Chronic disease self-management programs hold promise in addressing individual-level, behavioral risks factors, such as dietary habits and physical activity patterns. In light of the unique barriers Hispanic men face, including low participation in evidence-based health intervention research, this article argues for a gendered perspective when approaching Hispanic men's physical and mental health needs. Through the analysis of data collected from male-only focus groups (N = 3, n = 15) with Hispanic Americans in west central Florida, this study identified that masculine identity is influenced by chronic disease and comorbid depression status. Diagnosis with a chronic disease and/or depression is accompanied by lifestyle adaptations, activity restrictions, and changes in income and health care demands that can undermine traditional notions of Hispanic masculinity. Consequently, masculine identity is associated with self-management strategies in complex ways. Public health interventions aimed at addressing comorbid chronic disease and depression among Hispanic men must take into consideration the role of gender identity and relevant conceptualizations of masculinity in order to better serve this underserved and understudied population.
