Nutrition Information In Community Newspapers: Goal Framing, Story Origins, and Topics

Abstract: Obesity rates are high in the rural United States. Because small communities often have few health care practitioners, nutrition news in community newspapers may be a useful source of information. This content analysis of a random sample of 164 nutrition stories from 10 community newspapers in the rural West North Central Midwest was guided by concepts from goal-framing theory. Locally generated stories comprised nearly half of the sample, suggesting that nutrition is a salient topic in many rural communities.… Show more

“…In applying goal-framing theory to emerging adults’ financial behavior, we first identified three behavioral approaches that were suggestive of the overarching motivations in the theory: planful (gain class), present focused (hedonic), and socially compliant (normative). Previous applications of the theory have been useful in understanding adolescent behavior in education settings (Dijkstra, Kretschmer, Lindenberg, & Veenstra, 2015), adult health behaviors (Andsager, Chen, Miles, Smith, & Nothwehr, 2015), and environmental behaviors (Lindenberg & Steg, 2007). Our findings add to this base providing evidence that financial behaviors in emerging adulthood may signal a preferred pattern or approach that over time may become habitual and thus difficult to change even when life circumstances change.…”

“…Being a theory that has been validated over decades, GFT studies are primarily based on the contexts of political, environmental, health, and organizational communication (Andsager et al, 2015; Koh, 2020; Lindenberg & Foss, 2011; Lindenberg & Steg, 2007). In these contexts, goal‐frames are professionally generated content (PGC) (e.g., advertising, news).…”

“…The majority of studies used content analysis approaches (e.g. [43][44][45][46]), with a smaller proportion of studies using other qualitative approaches, such as discourse analysis, to explore the patterns and trends in news media coverage (e.g. [47,48]).…”
