Abstract

BACKGROUND

The aim of this longitudinal study was to examine the link between perceived authoritative parenting behaviors and sugary drink consumption among children from low-income families who do or do not have televisions (TVs) in their bedrooms.

METHODS

Middle school students (N = 480) completed a baseline survey in sixth grade and a follow-up survey in seventh grade. The students were recruited from 12 schools in a low-income, predominantly black (33%) and Latino (48%), urban school district. The survey assessed the children's perception of their parents' controlling and nurturing behaviors, the presence of a TV in their bedrooms, and their level of sugary drink consumption on the previous school day. Children's report of specific controlling and nurturing parental behaviors were used to create an "authoritative parenting" score. Regression analyses were used to test the main and interactive effects of authoritative parenting behaviors and having a TV in the bedroom with sugary drink consumption in seventh grade, controlling for age, race/ethnicity, gender, BMI, and sugary drink consumption in sixth grade.

RESULTS

A significant interaction emerged: The authoritative parenting score predicted lower levels of sugary drink consumption in seventh grade, but this relationship was moderated by whether or not there was a TV in the child's bedroom.

CONCLUSION

A TV in the child's bedroom may weaken the positive influence of authoritative parenting behaviors on limiting sugary drink consumption among middle school children from low-income families. Stronger initiatives are recommended to educate parents and help them refrain from placing TVs in their children's bedrooms.

摘要

背景

这项纵向研究的目的是调查低收入家庭中卧室里有或没有电视的儿童所感知到的权威性养育行为与含糖饮料消费之间的联系。

方法

中学生（N = 480）在六年级完成了一项基线调查，并在七年级进行了随访调查。这些学生是从一个低收入、主要为黑人（33%）和拉丁裔（48%）的城市学区的12所学校招募的。该调查评估了孩子们对父母控制和养育行为的认知、他们卧室里是否有电视，以及他们在前一个上学日的含糖饮料消费水平。孩子们对父母具体控制和养育行为的报告被用来创建一个“权威性养育”得分。回归分析用于测试权威性养育行为和卧室里有电视对七年级含糖饮料消费的主要和交互作用，同时控制年龄、种族/民族、性别、BMI以及六年级时的含糖饮料消费情况。
