How perceptions of community environment influence health behaviours: using the Analysis Grid for Environments Linked to Obesity Framework as a mechanism for exploration.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Overweight and obesity are influenced by a complex interplay of individual and environmental factors that affect physical activity and healthy eating. Nevertheless, little has been reported on people's perceptions of those factors. Addressing this critical gap and community partner needs, this study explored how people perceived the influence of micro- and macroenvironmental factors on physical activity and healthy eating. METHODS:Community partners wanted the study results in a format that would be readily and easily used by local decision makers. We used photovoice to engage 35 community members across four municipalities in Alberta, Canada, and to share their narratives about their physical activity and healthy eating. A combination of inductive and deductive analysis categorized data by environmental level (micro vs. macro) and type (physical, political, economic, and sociocultural), guided by the Analysis Grid for Environments Linked to Obesity Framework. RESULTS:Participants conceptualized health-influencing factors more broadly than physical activity and healthy eating to include "community social health." Participants spoke most often about the influence of the microenvironment (n = 792 ANGELO Framework coding tallies) on their physical activity, healthy eating and community social health in comparison to the macroenvironment (n = 93). Photovoice results provided a visual narrative to community partners and decision makers about how people's ability to make healthy choices can be limited by macroenvironmental forces beyond their control. CONCLUSION:Focussing future research on macro- and microenvironmental influences and localized community social health can inform practice by providing strategies on how to implement healthy changes within communities, while ensuring that research and interventions echo diverse people's perceptions. INTRODUCTION:Le surpoids et l’obésité dépendent de l’interaction complexe entre facteurs liés à l’indivu et facteurs liés à l’environnement ayant une influence sur l’activité physique et une alimentation saine. Il existe pourtant peu d’information sur les perceptions des individus à l’égard de ces facteurs. Afin de combler cette lacune importante et de répondre aux besoins de nos partenaires des collectivités, nous examinons comment les individus perçoivent l’influence des facteurs micro- et macroenvironnementaux sur leur activité physique et leur alimentation. MÉTHODOLOGIE:Nos partenaires des collectivités souhaitaient que les résultats de l’étude soient diffusés dans un format facile à utiliser par les décideurs locaux. Avec la méthode photovoix, nous avons motivé 35 membres issus de quatre collectivités de l’Alberta (Canada) à fournir leurs témoignages à propos de leur activité physique et d’une alimentation saine. Nous avons employé une combinaison d’analyses inductives et déductives pour classer les données par niveau (micro et macro) d’environnement et par type (environnement physique, politique, économique et socioculturel), à l’aide de la Grille d’analyse des environnements liés à l’obésité (ANGELO). RÉSULTATS:Pour les participants, les facteurs liés à la santé étaient plus larges que l’activité physique et une alimentation saine, incluant la « santé sociocommunautaire ». Les participants ont parlé plus souvent de l’influence du microenvironnement (score de 792 après codage au moyen du cadre ANGELO) sur l’activité physique, une alimentation saine ou la santé sociocommunautaire que sur l’influence du macroenvironnement (score de 93). Les résultats obtenus avec la méthode photovoix ont fourni aux partenaires des collectivités et aux décideurs un témoignage visuel de la manière dont la capacité des individus à faire des choix sains peut être restreinte par des forces macroenvironnementales qui échappent à leur contrôle. CONCLUSION:Axer les recherches ultérieures sur les influences et macroenvironnementales et microenvironnementales ainsi que sur la santé sociocommunautaire locale sera utile, car cela alimentera les stratégies de changement en vue d’améliorer la santé des collectivités tout en garantissant que la recherche et les interventions font écho aux perceptions diverses de la population.
