“…College based intervention ( n = 186) Online preparation videos and tasting of 4 V, one per month for 4 months ( n = 186) No control Stage of change and V self-efficacy increased postintervention. Intakes for one V increased, but no effects for other V or all V Online V demonstration videos may be an effective and cost-efficient intervention for increasing self-efficacy of V preparation and readiness to increase V consumption among college students Carney et al [ 190 ] Education Experience Social activities To increase V intakes (reduce food security and improve family relationships) in families Community gardening programme, including education, gardening experiences, and social activities ( n = 42 families, 163 individuals) No control I increased V intakes (reduced food insecurity and improved family relationships) from pre- to postintervention A community gardening programme can increase V intakes, reduce food insecurity and improve family relationships Schreinemachers et al [ 191 ] Availability Education Experience To increase V production, consumption and dietary diversity in families Garden training, education, seeds, cooking, and garden equipment ( n = 103) No intervention (wait-list) ( n = 479) I resulted in increased V production, consumption and dietary variety vs C Women’s home gardens are an effective intervention for increasing supply and consumption of a range of V in poor households, and so contributing to nutrition security Kushida and Murayama [ 192 ] Availability Education To increase V consumption behaviours in adults in workplace cafeterias 12 informational table tents placed every 2 weeks on all cafeteria tables, posters and locally grown V included in cafeteria menu.

Increasing vegetable intakes: rationale and systematic review of published interventions

Purpose While the health benefits of a high fruit and vegetable consumption are well known and considerable work has attempted to improve intakes, increasing evidence also recognises a distinction between fruit and vegetables, both in their impacts on health and in consumption patterns. Increasing work suggests health benefits from a high consumption specifically of vegetables, yet intakes remain low, and barriers to increasing intakes are prevalent making intervention difficult. A systematic review was undertaken to identify from the published literature all studies reporting an intervention to increase intakes of vegetables as a distinct food group.MethodsDatabases—PubMed, PsychInfo and Medline—were searched over all years of records until April 2015 using pre-specified terms.ResultsOur searches identified 77 studies, detailing 140 interventions, of which 133 (81 %) interventions were conducted in children. Interventions aimed to use or change hedonic factors, such as taste, liking and familiarity (n = 72), use or change environmental factors (n = 39), use or change cognitive factors (n = 19), or a combination of strategies (n = 10). Increased vegetable acceptance, selection and/or consumption were reported to some degree in 116 (83 %) interventions, but the majority of effects seem small and inconsistent.ConclusionsGreater percent success is currently found from environmental, educational and multi-component interventions, but publication bias is likely, and long-term effects and cost-effectiveness are rarely considered. A focus on long-term benefits and sustained behaviour change is required. Certain population groups are also noticeably absent from the current list of tried interventions.

“…Until now, there have been many intervention studies in WHP that adopted supporting environment interventions alone or combined with other intervention, but the evidence of effectiveness is still inconsistent. Some studies have found that adopting environmental interventions alone is completely ineffective in improving employees' health behaviors and health status (42)(43)(44)(45). However, combined with other behavioral interventions, environmental intervention can help to promote the effectiveness of WHP (46,47).…”

Background: The aim of this study was to develop and validate the workplace health culture scale. Methods: This paper collected and reorganized current definitions about health culture from literature and created the domains and items to develop a new tool. Six enterprises and 2,431 participants were recruited from northern Taiwan for validity test. Results: We found the workplace health culture scale had appropriate reliability and validity, including a good model fit for the 25-item scale. Conclusions: Workplace health culture might be an important domain to the work of WHP. More validity and reliability studies about WHCS in wider industries and the correlation between WHCS and other WHP indicators are needed.
