Meal preferences and associations with dietary behaviours and cardiometabolic health in young adults: A discrete choice experiment
This study explored meal preferences in young adults and moderation by dietary behaviours and cardiometabolic health. Between April and November 2022, Australian young adults (18-30 years) were invited to complete an online discrete choice experiment (DCE) to understand meal preferences and to provide an 8-item cardiometabolic profile analysis. Participants were presented with 12 choice sets reflecting a typical weekday meal and were asked to cho…
Cross-sectional and prospective associations between behavioural patterns and adiposity in school-aged children
Objective: Behavioural patterns are important in understanding the synergistic effect of multiple health behaviours on childhood adiposity. Most previous evidence assessing associations between patterns and adiposity were cross-sectional and investigated two or three behaviour domains within patterns. This study aimed to identify behavioural patterns comprising four behaviour domains and investigate associations with adiposity risk in children. D…
How and why does discretionary food consumption change when we promote fruit and vegetables? Results from the ShopSmart randomised controlled trial
Objective: The present study aimed to identify whether discretionary food consumption declined in an intervention focused primarily on promoting fruit and vegetable consumption. We also aimed to identify potential mediators explaining intervention effects on discretionary food consumption. Design: Secondary analysis of data from the ShopSmart study, a randomised controlled trial involving a 6-month intervention promoting fruit and vegetable consu…
Economic evaluation of price discounts and skill-building strategies on purchase and consumption of healthy food and beverages: The SHELf randomized controlled trial
How active are people in metropolitan parks? An observational study of park visitation in Australia
Current controlled trial ISRCTN50745547 , registration date 11.1.2014
Are associations between the perceived home and neighbourhood environment and children′s physical activity and sedentary behaviour moderated by urban/rural location
Home food availability mediates associations between mothers’ nutrition knowledge and child diet
Is maternal nutrition knowledge more strongly associated with the diets of mothers or their school-aged children
Objective Maternal nutrition knowledge has frequently been identified as an important target for nutrition promotion interventions. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether maternal nutrition knowledge is more strongly associated with the mother's own diet or that of her child. Design Cross-sectional multivariate linear regression with interactions analyses of survey data. Setting Socio-economically disadvantaged neighbourhoods in …
Is healthy behavior contagious: Associations of social norms with physical activity and healthy eating
BACKGROUND: Social norms are theoretically hypothesized to influence health-related behaviors such as physical activity and eating behaviors. However, empirical evidence relating social norms to these behaviors, independently of other more commonly-investigated social constructs such as social support, is scarce and findings equivocal, perhaps due to limitations in the ways in which social norms have been conceptualized and assessed. This study i…
