This study was conducted to develop a nutritional education program based on the health belief model to improve nutritional status among Vietnamese female marriage immigrants in Korea. The education program was developed through literature review, focus group interviews, expert consultation, and pilot tests. Based on theoretical requirements and needs of beneficiaries, the education program was consisted of 16 sessions with nine topics: `how to evaluate own dietary habits and nutritional status`, `health problems according to dietary habits and nutritional status`, `understanding six food groups`, `healthy eating plan`, `understanding food cultures of Korea and Vietnam`, `traditional and seasonal Korean foods`, `how to cook Korean food`, `nutrition management of family members`, and `practicing of healthy dietary life`. Program contents in each session consisted of activities that could induce outcome and value expectations, self-efficacy, perceived benefits, and barriers and cues to actions regarding dietary behavior. This nutritional education program based on the health belief model would be helpful to implement healthy diet behaviors in Vietnamese marriage immigrants and their families. Extension of these nutritional education programs to health centers and multicultural family support centers would improve the current poor nutrition status of Vietnamese marriage immigrant women. Further studies are needed to validate our program.
