Validation of eating habits subscale in children (sehan: spanish version) from 10 to 12 years.
2015
Introducción: Es necesario identificar hábitos alimentarios de riesgo para frenar el aumento de la prevalencia del sobrepeso infantil y garantizar el derecho a la salud del niño. Para ello, se requiere el uso de instrumentos validados en contextos escolares y familiares. Objetivo: Validar una Subescala de Hábitos Alimentarios en Niños (SEHAN), para su uso en escolares españoles entre 10 y 12 años. Método: Las propiedades psicométricas de la SEHAN se estudiaron en 3 apartados: Validez y lógica del instrumento, fiabilidad y consistencia interna, y validez criterial. En el primer apartado participó un grupo de 5 expertos, que valoró la suficiencia, claridad, coherencia y relevancia del instrum…
Clinical validation of a virtual environment for normalizing eating patterns in eating disorders
2013
The purpose of the present study was to examine the clinical validation of a Virtual Reality Environment (VRE) designed to normalize eating patterns in Eating Disorders (ED). The efficacy of VR in eliciting emotions, sense of presence and reality of the VRE were explored in 22 ED patients and 37 healthy eating individuals. The VRE (non-immersive) consisted of a kitchen room where participants had to eat a virtual pizza. In order to assess the sense of presence and reality produced by the VRE, participants answered seven questions with a Likert scale (0-10) during the experience, and then filled out the Reality Judgment and Presence Questionnaire (RJPQ) and ITC-Sense of Presence Inventory (I…
Educación Nutricional en la Escuela
2004
¿Existe la educación nutricional en la Escuela? ¿Se desarrolla en los Centros Docentes una educación para que el alumnado sepa cómo alimentarse correctamente? Si realizamos estas preguntas al profesorado, la respuesta será afirmativa en líneas generales, y una ojeada a los libros de texto puede hacernos comprobar que, efectivamente, los temas de la alimentación son tratados en el aula. En concreto, el Real Decreto que desarrolla la actual Ley Orgánica de Calidad de la Enseñanza (LOCE), en la asignatura de Biología y Geología de tercer curso de la ESO señala entres sus contenidos temas como 'El ser humano y la salud', 'Prevención de las enfermedades provocadas por la malnutrición', 'Hábitos …
Enseñanza de las ciencias : revista de investigación y experiencias didácticas
1993
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Resumen en inglés ¿La educación sanitaria es lo mismo que la educación para la salud? ¿Qué factores hay que tener en cuenta al configurar un plan de estudios para la educación de la salud? ¿Es necesario tratar asuntos de salud tales como higiene, vacunaciones, etc., para desarrollar este tipo de educación para las escuelas? Estas son solo algunas de las preguntas que se plantean y se muestra el uso de fuentes que determinan un plan de estudios, como en el caso específico de Alimentación-Nutrición. ESP
Cross-sectional assessment of nut consumption and obesity, metabolic syndrome and other cardiometabolic risk factors: the PREDIMED study
2013
INTRODUCTION: Prospective studies have consistently suggested that nut consumption is inversely related to fatal and non-fatal coronary heart disease. Limited data are available on the epidemiological associations between nut intake and cardiometabolic risk factors. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate associations between frequency of nut consumption and prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors [obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), type-2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia] in a Mediterranean population at high cardiovascular risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cross-sectional study of 7,210 men and women (mean age, 67 y) recruited into the PREDIMED study. MetS was defined by the harmonized ATPIII and I…
Lifestyles and risk factors associated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet: a baseline assessment of the PREDIMED trial
2013
Background: The traditional Mediterranean dietary pattern (MedDiet) is associated with longevity and low rates of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is little information on who is more likely to follow this food pattern. Aim: To evaluate how different factors are associated with lower MedDiet adherence in older Spanish subjects. Methods: We included 7305 participants (men aged 55-80 y, women 60-80 y) at high-risk of CVD recruited into the PREDIMED trial (ISRCTN35739639). Socioeconomic, anthropometric, lifestyle characteristics and CVD risk factors were recorded. A validated 14-item questionnaire was used to evaluate MedDiet adherence at baseline. Multivariate models were used to …
A 14-item Mediterranean diet assessment tool and obesity indexes among high-risk subjects: the PREDIMED trial
2012
Objective Independently of total caloric intake, a better quality of the diet (for example, conformity to the Mediterranean diet) is associated with lower obesity risk. It is unclear whether a brief dietary assessment tool, instead of full-length comprehensive methods, can also capture this association. In addition to reduced costs, a brief tool has the interesting advantage of allowing immediate feedback to participants in interventional studies. Another relevant question is which individual items of such a brief tool are responsible for this association. We examined these associations using a 14-item tool of adherence to the Mediterranean diet as exposure and body mass index, waist circum…
Predictors of short- and long-term adherence with a Mediterranean-type diet intervention: the PREDIMED randomized trial.
2016
Background: Dietary intervention success requires strong participant adherence, but very few studies have examined factors related to both short-term and long-term adherence. A better understanding of predictors of adherence is necessary to improve the design and execution of dietary intervention trials. This study was designed to identify participant characteristics at baseline and study features that predict short-term and long-term adherence with interventions promoting the Mediterranean-type diet (MedDiet) in the PREvencion con DIeta MEDiterranea (PREDIMED) randomized trial. Methods: Analyses included men and women living in Spain aged 55-80 at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Part…
Metabolic, Affective and Neurocognitive Characterization of Metabolic Syndrome Patients with and without Food Addiction. Implications for Weight Prog…
2021
According to the food addiction (FA) model, the consumption of certain types of food could be potentially addictive and can lead to changes in intake regulation. We aimed to describe metabolic parameters, dietary characteristics, and affective and neurocognitive vulnerabilities of individuals with and without FA, and to explore its influences on weight loss progression. The sample included 448 adults (55-75 years) with overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome from the PREDIMED-Plus cognition sub-study. Cognitive and psychopathological assessments, as well as dietary, biochemical, and metabolic measurements, were assessed at baseline. Weight progression was evaluated after a 3-year follow u…
