Parenthood as a Window of Opportunity for Dietary Changes: Perspectives From Uruguayan Parents
Research on behavioral and social science has demonstrated that transitions throughout a person’s life course, as the life event of becoming a parent, represent an opportunity for dietary changes. However, research in this area has been mostly restricted to developed European and North American countries and has shown ambiguous results. The present work aimed to gain an in-depth understanding on the changes in eating habits caused by the transiti…
Where is the father? Challenges and solutions to the inclusion of fathers in child feeding and nutrition research
Built on our own experiences with conducting research with fathers and recent evidence on this topic, this Research in Practice article has three aims. It will first substantiate the importance of including and studying fathers in the field of child feeding and childhood obesity prevention based on recent study results. Secondly, the article will present and discuss barriers to fathers' inclusion and participation (why isn't it happening?), among…
Exploring Barriers to Healthy Eating Among Women in Their Role as New Mothers with a Theory-Driven Questionnaire
These promising findings of reliability and initial validity suggest that researchers and practitioners interested in identifying women who face difficulties in the family food environment may find the scales useful. We propose a short version of the questionnaire for health practitioners
Socio-cognitive barriers to healthy eating among mothers: A segmentation analysis in Argentina, France, and Denmark
The prevalence of childhood obesity has increased at an alarming rate despite several actions to reverse this trend. It is important to focus on tackling the constraints for healthy food provisioning. We focus on identifying segments of mothers in relation to factors acting as barriers to healthy eating. Five hundred mothers in each country (Argentina, France and Denmark) completed an online survey. In each of the three countries, four segments a…
Perspectives on sugar consumption expressed on social media by French-speaking and Danish-speaking parents
A downturn or a window of opportunity? How Danish and French parents perceive changes in healthy eating in the transition to parenthood
Alarming childhood obesity rates call for research into the factors that influence a child's environment. Although parents have a large influence on children's eating behaviours, surprisingly little research has explored parental healthy eating patterns. We conducted face-to-face interviews with parents of young children (up to 4 years old) living in Denmark (n = 16) and in France (n = 14) to provide insights into how the transition to parenthood…
