   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.},
