Physical Activity Study

The changing racial and ethnic makeup of the United States has highlighted a need for a more culturally focused health care system. Ethnic minority midlife women, a particular group of interest, have low participation rates in physical activity and consequently high rates of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, hypertension and type-2 diabetes.

In effort to address this rising problem, Dr. Eun-Ok Im and her colleagues at the School of Nursing at the University of Texas at Austin are conducting a study exploring the differences in attitudes towards physical activity among the four major racial groups in the United States (Caucasian, Hispanic, Asian and African American).

They are currently recruiting participants to fill out an online survey that can be found on the project website: http://mapa.nur.utexas.edu/MAPA/. The survey will take about 30 minutes to complete and you will be reimbursed with a $10.00 Target gift certificate for completing the survey. A wide range of questions will be asked about your demographics and your attitudes towards physical activity.

For more information please visit the project website and/or contact them.
