NCT ID: NCT02660086 Completed - Weight Clinical Trials

Promoting Employee Health Through The Worksite Food Environment

ChooseWell 365
Start date: September 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This project tests a scalable and sustainable approach to weight gain prevention in a population of employees by using the worksite environment to deliver personalized feedback about worksite food purchases, daily calorie goals, social norms for healthy eating, and financial incentives for healthy food purchases. In the future, similar strategies could be adopted by other worksites, institutions, and food retailers and could contribute to the long-term environmental and social changes needed to reverse the obesity epidemic in the United States and worldwide. The overall objective of ancillary studies added on to this project is to examine the psychological traits, cognitive skills, and genes that may influence the impact of the behavioral intervention to promote healthy diet and weight among employees at a large hospital worksite.

NCT ID: NCT02359916 Completed - Food Choice Clinical Trials

Delays to Influence Snack Choice

DISC
Start date: June 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The pervasiveness of high-calorie, nutrient-poor snacks in the environment is believed to have contributed to the epidemic levels of obesity and cardiometabolic disease in the U.S. This project tests whether a novel snack vending machine system that uses brief time delays to reduce the immediacy of reward from unhealthy snacks will improve the healthfulness of snack choices. If successful, this project will identify a new environmental intervention that could contribute substantially to obesity and cardiometabolic disease prevention efforts in schools, worksites, and other settings.
