Summary

The overall goal of this project is to learn how positive advertising messages impact school food choices. More specifically, this study will determine if positive video messages about fruits and vegetables delivered during the elementary school morning news program can influence children to select more fruits and vegetables in a school lunch setting. Additionally, it will determine if assessing food selection is representative of food consumption by children in a school lunch room setting.

Conditions

  • Fruit and Vegetable Selection in the Lunchroom
  • Consumption Frequency Versus Selection Frequency

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Commercials

These commercials will display child actors and try to grab the attention of the 3rd - 5th grade viewers. They will be humorous, fun, and call the viewer to action so the students will feel they should consume fruits and vegetables like the children in the commercials.
