“…Igualmente, los primos influyeron en la conducta alimentaria del preescolar a través del modelamiento e imitación ( tabla 3 .4b). En línea con nuestro estudio, se ha reportado que hermanos pueden influir en la alimentación de forma positiva o negativa 63 y hermanos mayores aplican conductas de cuidado con sus hermanos, imitando el comportamiento de sus madres 12 . Por consiguiente, en familias de preescolares con hermanos y primos con los que comparten frecuentemente, estos podrían ser una influencia positiva si se estimula el modelamiento de conductas alimentarias saludables, aunque aún falta explorar el impacto 63 .…”

Objetivo Explorar las influencias de integrantes del grupo familiar en las prácticas de alimentación de madres hacia preescolares, en familias de barrios vulnerables en la Región Metropolitana de Santiago, Chile. Diseño Estudio cualitativo. Lugar Nueve jardines infantiles de la Región Metropolitana, Santiago, Chile. Participantes Veinticuatro madres y un padre de hijos preescolares. Método Se realizaron 25 entrevistas semiestructuradas con técnica de foto-elicitación y su posterior análisis temático inductivo de las influencias familiares. Resultados Las participantes describieron que las influencias familiares sobre las prácticas de alimentación que aplicaban en sus hijos preescolares dependían de la estructura familiar y de la cercanía entre familiares. Algunas de estas influencias afectan directamente la conducta alimentaria del niño, especialmente en familiares que cohabitan juntos, mientras que otras estaban mediadas por las relaciones generadas entre padres y otros miembros de la familia. El padre, en familias biparentales, y abuelos del preescolar son los familiares más influyentes. Los padres participan en la alimentación del niño y generalmente se alinean a las prácticas de alimentación con la madre. Los abuelos enriquecen la experiencia alimentaria de preescolares ofreciendo preparaciones caseras, expresando afecto con los alimentos, incluso opciones poco saludables, y apoyando a padres a diversificar y estructurar la alimentación del niño. Conclusiones El impacto de familiares y sus dinámicas en las prácticas alimentarias parentales y la alimentación de preescolares varían según la cercanía o cohabitación entre familiares. El desarrollo de estrategias de prevención y tratamiento de obesidad infantil debería considerar un enfoque familiar en familias vulnerables.

“…Consequently, the results could inform evidence-based guidelines for parents on how they can help their children to develop a sense of competence in making independent healthy food choices. Moreover, as peers become more important during adolescence and have been found to negatively impact healthy eating behavior [ 108 ], it would be relevant to explore how the need of relatedness as proposed in SDT is associated with healthy eating motivation and healthy food consumption. Furthermore, considering the positive impact of competence to eat healthily on preadolescents’ healthy eating motivation and intake, it would be interesting to translate these findings into a theory-based intervention to promote healthy eating and explore the impact on actual food intake.…”

Dutch Preadolescents’ Food Consumption at School: Influence of Autonomy, Competence and Parenting Practices

2021

Eating habits appear to become less healthy once children move into adolescence. Adolescence is characterized by increasing independence and autonomy. Still, parents continue influencing adolescents’ eating habits. This cross-sectional study used a Self-Determination Theory perspective to examine how parents can support preadolescents’ food-related autonomy and competence and how these factors are associated with healthy eating motivation and food consumption at school. In addition, the effect of relative healthy food availability at home on preadolescents’ food consumption at school was explored. In total, 142 Dutch preadolescents (mean age 12.18) and 81 parents completed questionnaires. The results showed that preadolescents perceived themselves as having higher food-related autonomy and lower competence to eat healthily as compared to their parents’ perceptions. A path analysis was conducted to test the hypothesized model. Although parental support was positively associated with food-related autonomy, higher food-related autonomy was related to less healthy food intake at school. On the other hand, competence to eat healthily indirectly affected preadolescents’ healthy intake ratio through their healthy eating motivation. Finally, the relative availability of healthy options at home was positively associated with preadolescents’ healthy intake ratio outside the home. Findings from the study advance the understanding of individual and environmental factors that influence eating habits during the key life period of early adolescence. The results may inform interventions aiming to guide preadolescents to make healthy food choices on their own.

“…The dietary behaviors of friends were also associated with the nutritional habits of adolescents. Studies found correlations between adolescents who have friends with unhealthy diets and them opting for such food items [24][25][26]. It was noted that those students who were encouraged by their peers to have unhealthy diets did have them [8].…”

Objective The study aims to identify the nutritional habits of second-year high school students in Seferihisar, Turkey, and the factors associated thereof, based on the Ecological Framework. Methods In this cross-sectional study by a self-reported questionnaire, second-year high school students (n=392) attending public schools in Seferihisar had their nutritional habits measured with the Adolescent Food Habits Checklist scale. The food habit score was calculated and associated factors were evaluated in 4 layers based on the Mary Story’s Ecological Framework (individual factors, social, physical and macro-level environments). The data analysis for the association of these layers with the food habits score was executed through multi-level linear regression. Results Students’ participation rate was 87.7% (n=344). Of all the layers (from individual factors to the influence of the social environment and macro-level environment: nutritional literacy, the food consumption of their peers at school, availability of fruits-vegetables at home, buying junk food at the school canteen, presence of posters at school, etc.), the option for advertised food items was statistically explanatory based on the linear regression analysis (p<0.05). Conclusions The model derived from the Ecological Framework explained 45% of the nutritional habits with an equivalent contribution from the four layers. Availability of healthy food items where the students lived and higher levels of nutritional literacy led to healthy nutritional habits. Having healthy food items sold at school canteens at affordable prices, using posters to promote a healthy diet, and introducing nutrition-related courses into the curricula would support students in developing healthy nutritional habits.
