Hello everyone.  I am in the process of trying to locate any validated
Spanish-language behavioral (physical activity and nutrition,
specifically) and social support measures.  Do any of you know where I can
go/who I can contact to find out about measures that people who are
conducting behavioral research with Latino populations may be using?

Thank you much,
Kim Riley
