Examining the Relationship Between Cultural Identity and Diet Quality Among 18-35-Year-Old African American Women
Abstract
There is a gap in literature addressing cultural identity and diet quality specifically among young African American women. Our research will examine whether there is an association between young (18-35-year-old) African American women’s cultural identity and diet quality. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between young African American women’s cultural identity and diet quality using the Black Identity Scale and the Well Diet Score, respectively. We hypothesize that there is a relationship between the cultural identity of young African American women and diet quality.
