NCT ID: NCT06246058 Recruiting - Health Behavior Clinical Trials

Measuring Anticipated Attitudes and Behavior Towards a New Medical Treatment in Lesotho

Start date: February 15, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary research objective is to examine how uncertainty towards a new medical treatment changes in patients when a partner (can be any close other, i.e. romantic partner, family member, or a close friend) supports the new treatment choice and is willing to be involved in the patient's treatment. I hypothesize that when the patients know that their partner supports uptake of the new medical treatment and will physically accompany them to the visit, patients will (1) experience lower levels of uncertainty and (2) report a higher likelihood of participating in a new treatment in the future, as compared to patients who face the decision about the new treatment alone.

Assesment of the Change in Consumer Behaviours to Afford the Dietary Cost According to Food Security Status and Choice Motives

Start date: January 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to assement of the change in consumer behaviours during the food inflation period in order to afford the dietary cost according to food security status and food choice motives. The study was planned in four stages. 1) First stage is adapting the Single-item Food Choice Questionnaire to Turkish society and to make its validity and reliability in Turkish. 2) The Impact of Food Inflation on Consumer Behavioural Change (TIF-Con) scale will be developed. 3) Observational cross-sectional data collection including these surveys will be carried out. 4) The Cost of the Recommended Diet (CoRD) will be calculated by collecting data simultaneously with the fieldwork. Hypotheses will be tested in line with the findings obtained.

Process and Effect Evaluation of the Project "Aan Tafel in 1,2,3 Euro"

Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this research project is to learn what the impact of the specific project "Aan Tafel in 1 2 3 euro" is on the food and meal habits of families of lower SES. Three types of studies will be conducted: WP1) Process evaluation via qualitative research: focus groups and/or individual interviews with participants of Aan Tafel in 1 2 3 euro, and with delegates of the social organizations; WP2) Effect evaluation via secondary data-analysis of purchase data retrieved from loyalty cards of participants, and of general customers (i.e., control group); WP3) Process and effect evaluation with a control group in a baseline-post design: the intervention group are participants of the program, and the control group are clients in social organizations, but do not participate in the program. On the one hand we want to find out if the intervention has an effect on specific determinants (i.e., food literacy, self-efficacy, attitudes, food security) of food behavior/meal prepping behavior and on meal structure of the family (i.e., amount of freshly made meals, amount of meals cooked and consumed together) (WP3), as well as on participants' food choices (WP2). On the other hand we want to find out how participans experience the program, what succes factors and barriers are, as well as how social organizations experience the program (as a partner of Colruyt, and contact person of the vulnerable families) (WP1).

NCT ID: NCT04454944 Completed - Consumer Behavior Clinical Trials

Understanding Adoption for Clean Cookstoves: A Demand Study

Start date: February 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the Adoption study is to determine how best to encourage people to adopt clean cookstoves in order to diminish the global health risk of household air pollution. The study harnesses an existing cohort in Ghana to study factors that increase the adoption of clean cookstoves, and to test strategies to promote adoption and continued use. Limited past research has shown that the demand for clean cookstoves is low, and that households continue to use traditional hearths even when they have clean cookstoves. This behavior threatens to undermine clean cookstove intervention programs, such as those promoted by the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves. The proposed study aims to ascertain the demand curve for liquified petroleum gas (LPG) in the Kintampo North Municipality and South district.

Consumer Perceptions of Milk Beverages

CMK2
Start date: December 16, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objectives of this study are to: 1. Investigate and describe perceptions of nutrient content, including calories, of plant-based milks and dairy milks without food labels (ie., no Ingredient or Nutrition Facts label) and how this impacts consumption choice. 2. Determine understanding of nutrient content, including calories, of plant-based milks and dairy milks after given access to food labels (ie., Ingredient or Nutrition Facts label) and how this impacts consumption choice. 3. Assess influence of age, gender, economic status, and race/ethnicity on results.

NCT ID: NCT02947802 Completed - Consumer Behavior Clinical Trials

Sugar Sweetened Beverage Labeling Support

Start date: October 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is an online survey assessing consumer support for different labeling policies related to sugar sweetened beverages. The investigators will present consumers with three labels that are being considered for sugar sweetened beverages: a calorie label, a text warning label that says "Warning drinking beverages with added sugar(s) can lead to health problems like obesity, diabetes and tooth decay" and a graphic warning label that includes graphic images to correspond with each of the health problems listed with the text warning. The investigators will ask participants their support for each label. The investigators will also see if support for the labels change after learning of the effectiveness of these labels. The investigators will share the results of a recent field study that suggested calorie and textual warning labels had no influence on the purchasing of sugar sweetened beverages while the graphic label decreased purchasing by 11 percent.

FoodFLIP: Testing the Effectiveness of a Food Information App to Promote the Selection of Healthier Foods

Start date: November 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is a lot of confusion when it comes to understanding nutrition information on food packages, thus making it difficult for consumers to choose healthy products. In today's busy and fast-paced shopping environment, mobile digital technology (for example, Smartphone applications) can help consumers make 'healthier' food choices when they are shopping. This study aims to test the effectiveness of a traffic light front-of-pack system, the Health Star Rating System (HSR or Star System), and the proposed sodium, saturated fat and sugar warning labels proposed by Health Canada. The study will also experimentally test the use of a Smartphone application (app), FoodFlip, to help educate consumers on these systems on food packages to explore the impact of a learning effect on the efficacy of the labelling systems.

Impact of Front-of-pack Nutrition Labelling on Consumer Purchases

Start date: October 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introducing Front-Of-Pack (FOP) nutrition labelling, providing simplified information on nutritional content at a glance, in order to help consumer make informed choices, has been identified as of major interest by public health specialists. In France, a recent report to the Minister of Health has proposed the introduction of a Front-of-Pack nutrition label, the 5-Colour nutrition label. Existing studies on FOP labels mainly focused on assessment of consumers' acceptability/liking and understanding. If most of the studies on purchasing behavior, conducted in real supermarkets, suggested a positive effect of FOP labels on consumers' food choices, the impact of the 5-CNL has not been evaluated. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of a Front-of-pack nutrition label, the 5-Colour Nutrition Label on consumer purchases in a controlled environment close to real-world settings. Nutritional quality of the items purchased will be compared using the Food Standards Agency nutrient profiling system (FSA score). The study relies on a comparison across three independent samples : - Control group: The current situation with current way brands show or not nutritional information on Front of Pack (FoP) - without consumer information - Intervention n°1: Introduction of a Front-of-pack nutrition label (5-CNL) on selected categories of foods. No additional consumer information - Intervention n°3: Introduction of a Front-of-pack nutrition label (5-CNL) on selected categories of foods. Additional consumer information specifically targeting nutritional information and explaining the 5-CNL will be performed (this information will consist in a concept shown to respondents before the shopping session). Participants are recruited in the street through quota sampling, based on criteria of gender, age and purchasing habits on the products categories selected for the introduction of the FOP nutrition label. The study relies on LabStores®, i.e. shopper laboratory stores, which are controlled study spaces in which a store is recreated in reality.The real lab store mimics a store environment with real shelves, product, and cash register, and presents several product categories in a realistic shopping environment. At the end of the shopping session, the respondents proceed to the cashier but don't actually pay for their purchases. The selected foodstuffs come from actual retailers' brand products available on the French market. Three categories of products were selected, based on expected variability in nutritional quality of the products and logistic criteria (exclusion of fresh products): - Breakfast cereals - Sweet biscuits - Salty snacks The impact of the different labels on nutritional quality (FSA score, calories, lipids, saturated fatty acids, sugars, proteins, fibre, sodium) of the shopping cart is investigated using one way ANOVA. Pairwise comparisons among FOP labels are assessed by using Tukey's multiple comparisons tests. All tests of significance are two-sided, and a P value <0.05 is considered significant. Statistical analyses are performed using SAS software (version 9.3; SAS Institute Inc.).
