含糖饮料（SSB）是美国饮食中添加糖的主要来源。此外，从SSB中摄入的添加糖超过了建议。因此，需要采取干预措施，有效减少SSB的消费。焦点小组讨论与父母（n = 37）和学龄儿童之间的年龄在6至11岁（n = 41）从佛罗里达，新泽西，西弗吉尼亚州由训练有素的主持人使用社会认知理论作为指导。从焦点小组数据的内容分析中出现的趋势和主题表明，父母和孩子都认为限制SSB对健康和体重控制很重要。然而，父母和孩子报告平均消费1.85 +/- 2.38 SD和2.13 +/- 2.52 SD SSB服务/周，分别。父母和孩子都意识到父母的行为会影响孩子，但父母报告说，塑造健康的SSB行为是困难的。忙碌的日程安排，包括随着孩子年龄的增长更频繁的聚会和活动，是限制SSB的另一个障碍。父母最成功地限制SSB时，他们不在家里。这种定性研究为父母和儿童的认知提供了新的见解（例如，信念，态度），障碍，和促进者有关的SSB摄入。在营养干预开发过程中考虑这些见解有可能提高减少SSB摄入的干预效果。
Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are a leading source of added sugar in the American diet. Further, ingestion of added sugars from SSBs exceeds recommendations. Thus, interventions that effectively reduce SSB consumption are needed. Focus group discussions with parents (n = 37) and school-aged children between the ages of 6 and 11 years (n = 41) from Florida, New Jersey, and West Virginia were led by trained moderators using Social Cognitive Theory as a guide. Trends and themes that emerged from the content analysis of the focus group data indicated that both parents and children felt that limiting SSBs was important to health and weight control. However, parents and children reported consuming an average of 1.85 +/- 2.38 SD and 2.13 +/- 2.52 SD SSB servings/week, respectively. Parents and children were aware that parent behaviors influenced kids, but parents reported modeling healthy SSB behaviors was difficult. Busy schedules, including more frequent parties and events as children get older, were another barrier to limiting SSBs. Parents were most successful at limiting SSBs when they were not in the house. This qualitative research provides novel insights into parents' and children's cognitions (e.g., beliefs, attitudes), barriers, and facilitators related to SSB ingestion. Consideration of these insights during nutrition intervention development has the potential to improve intervention effectiveness in reducing SSB intake.
