Title = {Is pregnancy a teachable moment for smoking cessation among

Abstract = {Objective. Pregnancy may be a time when US Latino expectant
fathers consider quitting smoking. A 'teachable moment' is
theorized to increase motivation to change a behavior
through increased risk perceptions, emotional responses, and
changes in self-image. Design. We recruited 30
Spanish-speaking expectant fathers through their pregnant
partners. We assessed expectant fathers' diet, exercise, and
smoking and teachable moment constructs (risk perceptions,
emotional responses, and self-image). We also tested
correlations between teachable moment constructs and
motivation to change behaviors. Results. Latino expectant
fathers had high-risk perceptions that their smoking harmed
the pregnancy (M=4.4, SD=0.5 on five-point scale) and strong
emotional responses about their smoking during pregnancy
(M=3.9, SD=1.1). They also felt it was their role to make
the pregnancy healthy (M=4.4, SD=0.8). They felt less
strongly that their diet and exercise affected the
pregnancy. The teachable moment constructs for smoking were
strongly correlated with motivation to quit smoking; the
same was not true for diet and exercise. Conclusions. Latino
expectant fathers seem aware that their smoking could harm
the pregnancy but seem less concerned about the effect of
their diet and exercise on the pregnancy. Pregnancy may be a
time to help Latino expectant fathers quit
smoking.},

Abstract = {Across the United States, advance practice nurses (APNs) are
increasingly encountering recently immigrated Latin American
populations. This article provides an overview of the
situation of Latin Americans in the United States and
discusses aspects of Latin American culture such as, respeto
(respect), confianza (confidence), the importance of family,
and the value of a personal connection. Strategies that will
assist practitioners to incorporate culturally holistic
principles in the promotion of breastfeeding among Latin
American women who are new arrivals in the United States are
described. If practitioners are to respond to the increasing
numbers of Latin American women who need health care
services, and also provide thorough, holistic health care
then health care activities must be integrated with cultural
competence.},
