“…The combination of high warmth and high control was classified as authoritative; low warmth and high control as authoritarian; high warmth and low control as permissive; and low warmth and low control as disengaged. The present study focused on the parenting styles of mothers only as 98 % of the primary caregivers were mothers and mothers are shown to be the main providers of household food ( 15 ) . Hereafter, for the sake of brevity, these styles are indicated by the terms ‘authoritative mothers’, ‘authoritarian mothers’, ‘permissive mothers’ and ‘disengaged mothers’.…”

“…Mothers are of particular importance as many of them spend significantly more time with their children than fathers across several situations including mealtimes ( 14 ) . Mothers also tend to be the main providers of household food ( 15 ) . Maternal influence over a child’s dietary intake is thought to be strongest in early childhood as early childhood is likely to be where the influences on children’s behaviours are greatest ( 16 , 17 ) .…”

ObjectiveTo examine associations between maternal parenting style and pre-school children’s dietary intake and to test whether perceived maternal time pressures, parenting arrangements and employment status influence these relationships.DesignThis cross-sectional study examined mothers’ reports of their child’s frequency of consumption of eight food and drink groups, including sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB), unhealthy snacks, takeaway foods, fruit and vegetables. Parenting styles were classified as authoritative, authoritarian, permissive or disengaged using two parenting dimensions (warmth and control). The moderating roles of parenting arrangements, indexed by number of parents in the home and maternal employment status, were assessed. Associations were examined using multinomial regression.SettingData were from the infant and child cohorts in the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children.ParticipantsChildren aged 4–5 years from both cohorts (infant:n3607; child:n4661) were included.ResultsCompared with children of disengaged mothers, children of authoritative mothers consumed most unhealthy foods less frequently, and fruit and vegetables more frequently. Results suggested parenting arrangements and mothers’ working status may moderate associations between parenting styles and SSB, takeaway foods, takeaway snacks and fruit consumption.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that authoritative parenting style is associated with a higher consumption of fruit and vegetables and a lower consumption of unhealthy foods among children. However, parenting arrangements and the mothers’ working status may influence these relationships. Further research is required to examine the influence of other potential moderators of parenting style/food consumption relationships such as household time and resource limitations.

“…When individuals compare their intake to the nutritional guidelines, they may have difficulties due to poor understanding of the recommendations when considering food diversity and serving sizes, for example. In addition, the constant dissemination of the importance of healthy eating, particularly by the mass media, can also lead the individual to provide socially acceptable responses [31,32]. In all situations mentioned, an optimistic bias can be present, leading to a misperception of one's food intake, which may, in turn, affect interventions that encourage healthy food intake such as fruit and vegetables.…”

“…A situation of FNS indicates, among other aspects, the ability to purchase food, including fruit and vegetables [22], which can lead individuals to believe that their ability to buy FV results in adequate intake [31]. On the other hand, food and nutrition insecurity demands structural interventions that go beyond educational actions to promote adequate FV intake and awareness of one's intake [22].…”

ObjectiveTo compare perception and intake of fruit and vegetables, and to identify the factors associated with misperception of intake. MethodsCross-sectional study with 3,414 participants of the Health Academy Program from Belo Horizonte (MG), Brazil. Stages of change from Transtheoretical Model were used to evaluate perception of intake, and questions adapted from national surveys were used to assess intake of fruit and vegetables as separate groups. Individuals whose intake and perception were discordant were reclassifi ed in pseudo-maintenance (wrongly believe their intake is adequate) or non-refl ective action (wrongly believe their intake is inadequate). ResultsInsuffi cient intake of fruit and vegetables and misperception of intake were observed. Pseudo-maintenance was more prevalent, given that 45.1% of individuals were reclassifi ed in this stage regarding their vegetable intake and 22.9% regarding fruit. According to multinomial logistic regression, pseudo-maintenance of fruit intake CC BY

“…Advertisers promote food items which have excess proportion of fat, sugar and salt (Bublitz & Peracchio 2015). In order to check this strategy of advertisements of food items, some European countries like United Kingdom and Netherlands has come up with the policies who restrict the amount, nutrition value and marketing strategies of advertisement pertaining to food (Moreira et al 2015). Even in Australia, regulators have completely ban the food advertising to the children.…”
