To date, there are mixed findings on AA women’s perception on obesity and their perceived changes in health behaviors over time that may have contributed to obesity. Therefore, the aims of this current qualitative descriptive study were to explore: 1) AA women’s perception on obesity and perceived changes in health behaviors related to obesity through their reflection on life; 2) AA women’s perceived facilitators and barriers to maintaining healthy behaviors; and 3) AA women’s suggestions for future health promotion programs to manage obesity. Semi-structured interviews with ended questions were conducted with 21 AA women. Luborsky’s method for thematic analysis was used to analyze data. Three main themes with subthemes were identified. First main theme was the AA culture that served as a facilitator and barrier to maintaining healthy lifestyle from childhood to young adulthood. Second main theme was gradual changes in their healthy lifestyle due to social and physical environment from young adulthood to middle adulthood. Third main theme was AA women’s various suggestions for future health promotion programs. This study found obesity to be a multifactorial phenomenon that is a result of complex interaction of culture, environment, and social networks. Therefore, clinicians need to address the issue of obesity from a holistic perspective for AA women to actively engage with their primary health care. Future health promotion programs should incorporate culturally tailored lifestyle components and increase knowledge on healthy lifestyle against obesity through community-based programs.","PeriodicalId":47001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Women & Aging","volume":"34 4","pages":"487-500"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8901798/pdf/nihms-1739007.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10089044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study investigates whether perceived social support has an influence on neurological health among a large sample of healthy postmenopausal women. Social support and neuropsychological outcomes were measured annually for six years through the Women's Health Initiative Study of Cognitive Aging. In postmenopausal women, higher perceived social support was associated with significantly better overall neuropsychological functioning at baseline, especially in the domains of short-delay figural memory, short-delay verbal memory, and semantic fluency. No significant associations were found between social support and longitudinal changes in neuropsychological function over a median follow-up period of six years. Additionally, there was no significant relationship between social support and regional brain volumes. These findings suggest that social support is related to performance in a subset of neuropsychological domains and contributes to the existing literature that points to the importance of social support as a modifiable lifestyle factor that has the potential to help protect against the decline of cognitive aging, specifically among older adult women.</p>","PeriodicalId":47001,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Women & Aging","volume":"34 3","pages":"394-410"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/08952841.2021.1945368","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9731055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
