“…Our hypothesis that the eating habits of mothers and adolescents are similar was supported by our finding that adolescent breakfast skipping was significantly associated with maternal eating habits. The current literature highlights the important role mothers play in influencing their children's eating habits, either positively by providing healthy food and encouraging healthy eating habits or negatively by skipping meals, thereby setting a bad example (Draxten et al, ; Giovannini et al, ; Hebestreit et al, ; Pearson, Williams, Crawford, & Ball, ; Winkler et al, ). Our findings are consistent with earlier research that confirms this maternal influence over adolescent eating habits (Loth, MacLehose, Larson, Berge, & Neumark‐Sztainer, ; Schnettler et al, ).…”

“…While the literature indicates that both mothers and fathers influence their children's eating behaviors (Ferris et al, ; Robinson, Rollo, Watson, Burrows, & Collins, ), some authors believe mothers have the greater influence in determining the quality of nutrition and dietary habits of adolescents (Schnettler et al, ; Winkler et al, ). This could be explained by the findings of Hebestreit et al () that suggest that mothers are more likely to follow dietary guidelines. In another study, maternal perceptions of the importance of breakfast intake were found to influence how children perceived the value of breakfast (Ali, Razeq, Alnuaimi, & Alzoubi, ).…”

Aim:To assess the prevalence and identify the predictors of breakfast skipping among 14-to 16-year-old adolescents in Jordan, focusing on mother-related variables.Background: Breakfast is an essential meal across one's entire lifespan and especially important during the adolescent years. The practice of skipping breakfast has become so prevalent among adolescents that it is now a well-documented nutritional problem.Design: A descriptive cross-sectional correlational design. Methods:A proportional cluster stratified sampling protocol was used to select 1896 adolescents and their mothers (1013) during the period of March to June 2016. A self-reported questionnaire was used to collect data on breakfast-skipping rates, the perceived reasons for this behavior, the perceived importance of consuming breakfast, and maternal encouragement of breakfast consumption. Results:The prevalence of breakfast skipping was 34.3% among adolescents and 21.5% among their mothers. A significant association was found between breakfast skipping among adolescents and their mothers (χ 2 [1, n = 998] = 37.90, P = .001).Maternal encouragement of breakfast consumption, gender, and adolescent perception of the importance of this meal were found to be significant predictors of adolescent breakfast skipping. Conclusion:The findings highlight the importance of involving mothers in developing nutritional health plans aimed at promoting regular breakfast consumption among adolescents.

“…To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to report the associations between parents/caregivers support for healthy eating, home food environment, and family meals with the Brazilian Food Pyramid groups' intake in a sample of under-served girls in Brazil. Further studies should be able to describe how the home food environment (operationalized as the number of shared meals, the availability of core and non-core food items at home, and parents/caregivers support for healthy eating) mediates the association between adolescents dietary intake [31].…”

Background: There is a striking lack of evidence about parents'/caregivers' influence on their children's dietary intake across Brazil and other middle-and low-income countries. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the associations between adolescents' dietary intake and home environment, family meals and parental support. Methods: Cross-sectional study with 14-18 years old adolescent girls was conducted in 10 public schools in the city of São Paulo. Girls' dietary intake, home food environment, parental support, and family meals' frequency were selfreported by 253 adolescents. Brazilian Food Pyramid recommendation was used as reference for the dietary intake. Linear regressions were used to verify the associations between home environmental, parental support, and family meal frequency with dietary intake. Results: Girls parents' support for healthy eating was positively associated with the fruits group (mean (95%CI) 0.75 (0.66 to 0.84) ß = 0.26, p = 0.003), and the vegetables group (3.40 (3.08 to 3.72, ß = 0.25, p = 0.006) and negatively associated with the meat and eggs group (2.09 (1.93 to 2.25), ß = −0.14, p = 0.041). Home environment was associated with fruits group (0.73 (0.63 to 0.82), ß = 0.35, p = 0.001). The associations between sharing family meals and food groups were not statistically significant. However, girls demonstrated a positive association with dietary intake and sharing family meals. Conclusion: Parental support and home food environment were associated with dietary intake of the adolescent girls. Future studies-mainly from low-and middle-income countries -are needed to provide additional evidence on these associations and the effects of youth home environment.

“…195 assessed using a web-based 24-hour dietary recall (24HDR) assessment program, called the "Self-Administered Children, Adolescents and Adult Nutrition Assessment" (Hebestreit et al, 2017). The software was based on the 'Self-Administered Children and Infant Nutrition Assessment' (SACINA), which is considered to be a well-validated method to assess dietary intake (Börnhorst et al, 2014;Hebestreit et al, 2014).…”

We aimed to investigate the association between emotion-driven impulsiveness and snack food consumption in 1039 European adolescents aged 12-18 years. During the cross-sectional examination in 2013/2014, complete information was collected on: emotion-driven impulsiveness (using the negative urgency subscale from the Urgency, Premeditation, Perseverance, Sensation seeking, and Positive urgency (UPPS-P) Impulsive Behaviour Scale) and snacking behaviour operationalised as 1) consumption frequency of daily snacks, 2) consumption frequency of energy-dense snacks (both measured using Food Frequency Questionnaire) and 3) usual energy intake of food consumed per snacking occasion in calories. The latter was measured using online self-administered 24-h dietary recalls and was estimated based on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Method. Anthropometric variables were measured and BMI z-score (zBMI) calculated. Age, sex, highest education level of the family and country of residence were assessed using a questionnaire. Mixed-effect regression analyses were separately conducted for each snacking behaviour outcome with emotion-driven impulsiveness as the exposure. After controlling for zBMI, age, sex, country and socioeconomic status, emotion-driven impulsiveness was positively associated with daily consumption frequency of snacks (β = 0.07, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) [0.02, 0.12]) and consumption frequency of energy-dense snacks (β = 0.25, 95% CI [0.19, 0.31]), but not with usual energy intake of food per snacking (β = 2.52, 95% CI [-0.55, 5.59]). Adolescents with a stronger emotion-driven impulsiveness tendency reported a higher snacking frequency and specifically more energy-dense snacks, whereas the energy intake of snack food seemed less important. These findings have implications for obesity prevention and treatment as they indicate the importance of targeting emotion-driven impulsiveness as a strategy to avoid excessive snacking.
