Beverage intake can influence child diet quality in a positive or negative manner depending on the beverage type and amounts consumed. Parenting practices such as role modeling and control of home beverage availability have been associated with child beverage intake, whereas examination of the influence of parental beverage nutrition knowledge has been more limited. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between sugar-sweetened and dairy beverage intake among children (9-12 years) and home and parental factors. A questionnaire was administered among a convenience sample of parents ( = 194) to assess beverage nutrition knowledge, beverage intake and home availability of beverages. Children completed a questionnaire to estimate usual beverage intake. Daily sugar-sweetened beverage intake by children ranged from 0.4 to 48 oz. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine relationships. Parents were mostly female, white, well educated, and employed. Home availability of sugar-sweetened and dairy beverages was positively associated with child sugar-sweetened (OR = 1.48, = 0.03) and dairy beverage intake (OR = 1.34, = 0.03), respectively. Parent dairy beverage intake was associated with child dairy beverage intake (OR = 1.06, = 0.01). Parent knowledge about sugar in beverages was related to child dairy beverage intake (OR = 1.46, = 0.02), whereas calcium/dairy knowledge and general beverage nutrition knowledge were not related to child beverage intake. Parenting practices and knowledge may play a role in determining child beverage intake.
饮料摄入对儿童饮食质量的影响可能是积极的，也可能是消极的，这取决于饮料的类型和摄入量。诸如树立榜样和控制家中饮料供应等育儿方式与儿童饮料摄入有关，而对父母饮料营养知识影响的研究则较为有限。本研究的目的是探讨9至12岁儿童的含糖饮料和乳制品饮料摄入量与家庭及父母因素之间的关系。我们对194名家长进行了问卷调查，以评估他们的饮料营养知识、饮料摄入量以及家中饮料的供应情况。孩子们填写了一份问卷，以估计他们通常的饮料摄入量。孩子们每天的含糖饮料摄入量在0.4至48盎司之间。我们使用逻辑回归分析来研究这些关系。家长大多为女性，白人，受过良好教育且有工作。家中含糖饮料和乳制品饮料的供应分别与儿童含糖饮料摄入量（OR = 1.48，P = 0.03）和乳制品饮料摄入量（OR = 1.34，P = 0.03）呈正相关。家长的乳制品饮料摄入量与儿童的乳制品饮料摄入量相关（OR = 1.06，P = 0.01）。家长对饮料中糖分的了解与儿童乳制品饮料摄入量有关（OR = 1.46，P = 0.02），而对钙/乳制品的了解以及一般饮料营养知识与儿童饮料摄入量无关。育儿方式和知识可能在决定儿童饮料摄入量方面发挥作用。
