Exploring Sugary Drink Consumption and Perceptions among Primary-School-Aged Children and Parents in AustraliaSugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) account for a significant proportion of sugar in the diet of children and are directly associated with obesity in this group. While there have been many studies on adolescent SSB consumption, few studies have examined the predictors of SSB consumption in primary-school-aged children. The aim of this study was to understand the degree to which a child's consumption across a range of beverages is influenced by their own attitudes and by their parents' attitudes and parents' consumption behaviours.
The ORIGINS Project is a decade-long longitudinal study of more than 18,000 individuals including mothers, partners and children, as part of a collaboration between The Kids Research Institute Australia and Joondalup Health Campus.
