“…The findings provide support for the positive relationship between resources and mutual efficacy (Brady, Verba, and Schlozman, ; Crooks, Jaffe, and Rodriguez, ; Ellis et al., ; Reichert, ; Smets and Van Ham, ). Completing graduate school is associated with higher levels of mutual efficacy compared to individuals who have completed a bachelor's degree.…”

“…For example, research suggests that individuals are more likely to have a stronger sense of perceived efficacy if they have resources such as time and money (Brady, Verba, and Schlozman, ; Smets and Van Ham, ). Further, knowledge in terms of how to create change is associated with higher levels of self‐efficacy and by extension, an increased likelihood that an individual will act (Crooks, Jaffe, and Rodriguez, ; Ellis et al., ; Reichert, ). Based on these findings, it is reasonable to suggest that individuals with higher incomes and education will have a stronger sense of mutual efficacy due to having greater financial means, and the knowledge to create positive change.…”

Objectives. Collective efficacy has developed concurrently in both sociology and psychology. In sociology, collective efficacy is the process by which social cohesion is activated as informal social control. In psychology, collective efficacy is a construct that focuses on a group's belief in its ability to achieve shared goals. Mutual efficacy reflects group members' beliefs that collective action can be successful at achieving group goals. Mutual efficacy was developed as a bridge between the sociological and psychological conceptualizations of collective efficacy. Prior research supports mutual efficacy as a mediator of the relationship between social cohesion and informal social control. However, little is known about the individual and neighborhood-level characteristics that predict mutual efficacy. Methods. This study tests predictors of mutual efficacy using regression while accounting for clustering at the neighborhood level through the use of Huber-White sandwich estimators. Results. Findings show that multiple factors influence mutual efficacy including social cohesion, resident mobility, income, and education. Conclusion. Findings highlight the importance of building mutual efficacy through facilitating interactions among neighbors, increasing access to education, and fostering economic stability.

“…Since 2013, the number of publications appears to have almost doubled to a maximum of 28 articles (studies) . As regards the contribution of dietitians/nutritionists, they authored about 58% of publications over the two decades [13][14][15][16]18,20,[22][23][24][25]27,28,30,31,33,[36][37][38][39]41,44,45,48,49,54,[62][63][64]66,67,72,73,75,77,80,82,85,87,92,[94][95][96]98,99,101,102,107,110,114,116,119,[121]<...>…”

Nutrition interventions developed using behaviour theory may be more effective than those without theoretical underpinnings. This study aimed to document the number of theory-based healthy eating interventions, the involvement of dietitians/nutritionists and the behaviour theories employed from 2000 to 2020. We conducted a review of publications related to healthy eating interventions that used behaviour change theories. Interventional studies published in English between 2000 and 2020 were retrieved from searching Medline, Cinahl, Embase, Psycinfo and Cochrane Central. Citation, country of origin, presence or absence of dietitian/nutritionist authors, participants, dietary behaviours, outcomes, theories and any behaviour change techniques (BCTs) stated were extracted. The publication trends on a yearly basis were recorded. A total of 266 articles were included. The number of theory-based interventions increased over the two decades. The number of studies conducted by dietitians/nutritionists increased, but since 2012, increases have been driven by other researchers. Social cognitive theory was the most used behaviour theory. Dietitians/nutritionists contributed to growth in publication of theory-based healthy eating interventions, but the proportion of researchers from other professions engaged in this field increased markedly. The reasons for this growth in publications from other professions is unknown but conjectured to result from greater prominence of dietary behaviours within the context of an obesity epidemic.

“…A study measured culinary self-efficacy among a group of athletes before and after a cooking education intervention that included a recipe demonstration and hands-on food preparation activity. 56 The researchers observed a significant increase in self-efficacy for healthy food selection and food preparation after the cooking intervention. Another study used focus groups consisting of athletes, coaches, and sports dietitians to identify barriers to cooking among college athletes.…”
