Download or read book A Field Experiment on the Impact of Incentives on Milk Choice in the Lunchroom written by John A. List and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost a third of US children ages 2-19 are deemed overweight or obese, and part of the problem is the habitual decision to consume high calorie, low nutrient foods. We propose that the school lunchroom provides a 'teachable moment' to engage children in making healthful choices. We conduct a field experiment with over 1,500 participants in grades K-8 and evaluate the impact of small non-monetary incentives on the selection of milk in the school lunchroom. At baseline, only 16% of children select white milk relative to 84% choosing chocolate milk. We find a significant effect of incentives, which increase white milk selection by 2.5 times, to 40%. One concern with incentives is that they may decrease intrinsic motivation to eat healthy, called 'crowd-out of intrinsic motivation.' However, we do not find evidence of 'crowd-out'; rather, we see some suggestive evidence of the positive habit forming effect of incentives.
Download or read book Benchmarks of Fairness for Health Care Reform written by Norman Daniels and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American health system has been critiqued widely in recent years for its many flaws. A common complaint has been that our system is unfair, a concern that comes from providers as well as consumers and from both public and private sectors. This bookaims to develop a framework for measuring various health reform proposals and current trends in relation to underlying social values in the U.S. In so doing, it seeks to expose social values that are at stake in current and future changes. At the heart of this book is the question: If the current situation is perceived to be unfair, will the future improve or worsen our situation? Targeted primarily for policy makers in government and throughout the health sector, this book will also stimulate graduate students in the health and social sciences. A wide audience will find the book of interest in providing a different perspective as to how current trends and specific legislative and policy proposals stack up against the authors' ten benchmarks of fairness. The book makes very limited use of illustrations, although tables provide understandable summaries of the concepts and their application in scoring proposals and trends. References are ample and pertinent. This is a stimulating and provocative work that shifts our focus to the collective social values at stake in an evolving health system. The book argues that our current system is unfair both in comparison to our values and the approaches taken throughout the rest of the industrialized world. Its sobering message is that the gap between what we value and what we have will likely increase until we recognize what is at stake.
Download or read book Milk and Beverage Consumption Patterns Among Preteens in an Intervention Aimed at Increasing Calcium Intake written by Disly Mariela Juarez Munoz and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's replacement of milk with sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) is associated with lower intake of calcium, vitamin D, vitamin A, folate, vitamin B-12, and magnesium. Research indicates a relationship between this consumption pattern and obesity, osteoporosis, nutrient deficiency and dental caries. This study is a secondary analysis of the cross-sectional dietary data from the Healthy Youth and Parent Program (HYPP). HYPP, a family behavioral intervention produced significant increases in calcium intake among the experimental group as compared to controls (N = 124). This secondary analysis analyzed beverage consumption, calcium-rich beverages and sugar sweet beverages, to test if the experimental intervention resulted in differential change from baseline to 3-months. Beverages included milk (whole, reduced and fat free), 100% juices, SSB (juice and soda) and calcium-fortified juices (calcium-100% juices and calcium-not 100% juices). This study evaluated if the increase in calcium intake in HYPP participants was due to an increase intake of milk and explored the type of milk that caused significant differences. Results indicate that total milk consumption increased in the experimental group relative to controls (p = .004). Consumption of whole milk decreased (p = .019) with a corresponding increase in reduced (p = .002) and fat-free milk (p = .036). No effect was observed for juices or SSB. This analysis supports parent-child interventions as a means of increasing the consumption of calcium rich beverages including reduced and fat-free milk in children. Dietary modification through such interventions should be considered as a means to successfully decrease the childhood obesity epidemic and potential osteoporosis rise among children in the United States.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American children are gaining excess weight at a faster rate and at a younger age than they did in the past. Being overweight as a child increases one's risk of developing obesity as an adult and is a health risk for developing a variety of different diseases. The goal of this education program was to educate parents on how low-fat milk and limited juice consumption can help children maintain a healthy weight. Parents of overweight child participants in the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program were educated on the benefits of consuming low-fat milk and limiting daily juice consumption. When the participants returned six months later for their next WIC appointment the type of milk and the number of ounces of juice consumed by their children was again assessed. The data indicated that nutrition education is effective in improving parental feeding practices.

Download or read book Nutrition Research written by Drummond and published by Jones & Bartlett Learning. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nutrition Research: Concepts & Applications is written for nutrition students in undergraduate and graduate programs who are beginning to develop the skills necessary to become knowledgeable research consumers, conduct and document research projects, and understand how to use research findings in practice. The first text of its kind to clearly explain each section of a research paper to students who are new at the process, this title outlines how to read and analyze research by learning concepts, such as sampling design or relative risk, and then seeing these abstract ideas brought to life in actual research articles. Students also apply these concepts in Application Questions and Critical Thinking Exercises in which they write abstracts, answer questions about evidenced-based study data, or use a checklist to critique a study. Students also learn the nuts and bolts of searching databases for appropriate articles, using systematic reviews such as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics
Download or read book Parenting Matters written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.
