“…Knowledge (OR = 0.754, 95% CI: 0.600– 0.949, P = 0.016), belief (OR = 0.915, 95% CI: 0.854– 0.980, P = 0.011), and age (OR = 0.950, 95% CI: 0.906– 0.995, P = 0.031) were independently associated with attitude. Moreover, structural equation modeling showed that knowledge had a significant direct effect on both belief (β = 0.845, P < 0.001) and attitude (β = − 0.944, P < 0.001), as well as belief on attitude (β = − 0.550, P < 0.001).Conclusion: Healthcare professionals exhibited insufficient knowledge, negative attitude and belief toward obesity stigmatization. …”
