Top food sources of percentage of energy, nutrients to limit and total gram amount consumed among US adolescents: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011–2014
Objective To identify most commonly consumed foods by adolescents contributing to percentage of total energy, added sugars, SFA, Na and total gram intake per day. Design Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011–2014. Setting NHANES is a cross-sectional study nationally representative of the US population. Participants One 24 h dietary recall was used to assess dietary intake of 3156 adolescents aged 10–19 years…
Predicting habits of vegetable parenting practices to facilitate the design of change programmes
Objective Habit has been defined as the automatic performance of a usual behaviour. The present paper reports the relationships of variables from a Model of Goal Directed Behavior to four scales in regard to parents’ habits when feeding their children: habit of (i) actively involving child in selection of vegetables; (ii) maintaining a positive vegetable environment; (iii) positive communications about vegetables; and (iv) controlling vegetable p…
Barriers and facilitators to following the Dietary Guidelines for Americans reported by rural, Northern Plains American-Indian children
Objective The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) promote healthy dietary choices for all Americans aged 2 years and older; however, the majority of Americans do not meet recommendations. The goal of the present study was to identify both barriers and facilitators to adherence to DGA recommendations for consumption of five recommended food groups: grains (specifically whole grains), vegetables, fruits, meat/beans and milk (specifically reduced…
Parents’ perceptions of preschool children’s ability to regulate eating. Feeding style differences
Exploring the effects of maternal eating patterns on maternal feeding and child eating
Taking Into Account Scientific Evidence Showing the Benefits of 100% Fruit Juice
In their recent commentary,1 Wojcicki and Heyman suggested that 100% fruit juice consumption is linked to childhood obesity and should be eliminated from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Programs. This recommendation is unsupported by the scientific literature, which has failed to show an association between overweight and obesity status and moderate consumption of 100% fruit juice in children,2 but evidence does support that 100% fru…
Test–retest reliability and comparison of children's reports with parents’ reports of young children's fruit and vegetable preferences
Home fruit, juice, and vegetable pantry management and availability scales: A validation
Food-purchasing patterns for home: A grocery store-intercept survey
There is substantial variability in the frequency of food shopping. Future research on food shopping should incorporate this variable
Are Current Health Behavioral Change Models Helpful in Guiding Prevention of Weight Gain Efforts?
Effective procedures are needed to prevent the substantial increases in adiposity that have been occurring among children and adults. Behavioral change may occur as a result of changes in variables that mediate interventions. These mediating variables have typically come from the theories or models used to understand behavior. Seven categories of theories and models are reviewed to define the concepts and to identify the motivational mechanism(s)…
Misclassification associated with measurement error in the assessment of dietary intake
Objective: Dietary assessment has been used for certification to receive food supplements or other nutrition services and to provide feedback for educational purposes. The proportion of individuals correctly certified as eligible is a function of the amount of error that exists in the dietary measures and the level of dietary intake used to establish eligibility. Whether individuals are correctly counselled to increase or decrease the consumption…
