Includes accelerometer data using an ActiGraph to assess usual sedentary, moderate, vigorous, and very vigorous activity at baseline, 6 weeks, and 10 weeks. Includes relative reinforcing value (RRV) data showing how participants rated how much they would want to perform both physical and sedentary activities on a scale of 1-10 at baseline, week 6, and week 10. Includes data on the breakpoint, or Pmax of the RRV, which was the last schedule of reinforcement (i.e. 4, 8, 16, …) completed for the behavior (exercise or sedentary). For both Pmax and RRV score, greater scores indicated a greater reinforcing value, with scores exceeding 1.0 indicating increased exercise reinforcement. Includes questionnaire data regarding preference and tolerance for exercise intensity using the Preference for and Tolerance of Intensity of Exercise Questionnaire (PRETIEQ) and positive and negative outcome expectancy of exercise using the outcome expectancy scale (OES). Includes data on height, weight, and BMI. Includes demographic data such as gender and race/ethnicity.

The average American’s diet does not align with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2020). The present study aimed to compare fruit and vegetable consumption among those who had and had not heard of the DGA, identify characteristics of DGA users, and identify barriers to DGA use. A nationwide survey of 943 Americans revealed that those who had heard of the DGA ate more fruits and vegetables than those who had not. Men, African Americans, and those who have more education had greater odds of using the DGA as a guide when preparing meals relative to their respective counterparts. Disinterest, effort, and time were among the most cited reasons for not using the DGA. Future research should examine how to increase DGA adherence among those unaware of or who do not use the DGA. Comparative analyses of fruit and vegetable consumption among those who were aware/unaware and use/do not use the DGA were completed using independent samples t tests. Fruit and vegetable consumption variables were log-transformed for analysis. Binary logistic regression was used to examine whether demographic features (race, gender, and age) predict DGA awareness and usage. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 28.1 and SAS/STAT® version 9.4 TS1M7 (2023 SAS Institute Inc).
