This paper presents results of the pilot-testing of a stage of change measure for eating fruit and vegetables (FV reported barriers decreased. Stepwise discriminant analyses between Precontemplation and Contemplation stages identified fruit preferences and barriers differentiating the two stages for fruit consumption and subjective norms and self-efficacy differentiating the two stages for vegetable consumption. Barriers and F&V preparation responsibilities/skills were significant between the Contemplation and the Action stages for both fruit and vegetable consumption, with the additional variable of subjective norms for fruit stage and vegetable preferences for vegetable stage. Findings support the use of this measure to identify stage for children's adoption of F&V consumption behavior and as a guide for intervention development. |
