Descripción detallada
SCALE is a five year study (October 1, 2009 through June 30, 2014) funded by NHLBI. The study will examine the possibility and acceptance of a mindful eating intervention in African American and Latino participants. We will test whether positive thinking can protect participants against the negative impact that stress and depression can have on making positive behavior changes such as mindful eating and physical activity.
Currently, the SCALE study is in the trial phase. Among overweight or obese Black or Latino adults who live in Harlem or the South Bronx, the primary goal of this project is to achieve weight loss of 7% or more over 12 months by making small sustained changes in eating behavior coupled with sustained increases in physical activity. Participants are enrolled for 12 months and are randomized to one of two study groups.
Group 1: Will choose one of ten small change eating strategies, a physical activity goal and will receive the positive affect/self affirmation component.
Group 2: Will choose one of ten small change eating strategies and a physical activity goal
