含糖饮料（SSB）税的公共健康效益往往取决于消费者购买行为的变化等因素。因此，SSB的感知成本和信号效应——通过对税收的认识——可能会影响SSB税对消费者购买的有效性。该研究旨在考察四个国家的SSB感知成本、税收意识和饮料购买随时间的变化，以及有无SSB税。该研究使用了2017年、2018年和2019年国际粮食政策研究的数据。在澳大利亚、墨西哥、英国和美国进行了年度横断面在线调查，其中捕获了所有国家（澳大利亚作为无税比较国）相对于非SSB的SSB感知成本，以及税收意识和参与者报告的饮料购买变化，以应对墨西哥（2014年实施的税收）、英国（2018年实施的税收）和美国（2015年以来的地方税收）的SSB税。逻辑回归模型评估了不同年份和不同社会人口群体的测量结果。在墨西哥（所有三年）和英国（2018年和2019年实施税收后），ssb相对于非ssb的感知成本高于澳大利亚和美国。英国的税收意识高于墨西哥，墨西哥受访者的税收意识随着时间的推移而下降。墨西哥、英国和美国报告的饮料购买模式因税收而发生的变化相似，墨西哥受访者报告的变化最大。具有较低社会经济地位特征的受访者不太可能意识到SSB税，但更有可能认为SSB比非SSB成本更高，并在有税收的情况下报告购买变化。本研究表明，在存在国家SSB税的国家（墨西哥，英国），SSB的感知成本和税收意识分别高于没有SSB税的国家（澳大利亚）或次国家SSB税的国家（美国），并表明感知成本和税收意识代表不同的结构。改善现有SSB税的“信号效应”可能是有必要的，特别是在改变消费者行为是一项政策目标的税收环境中。在线版本包含补充材料，可在10.1186/s12966-022-01277-1获得。
The public health benefits of sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) taxes often rely on, among other things, changes to consumer purchases. Thus, perceived cost of SSBs and signalling effects—via awareness of the tax—may impact the effectiveness of SSB taxes on consumer purchases. The study sought to examine perceived cost of SSBs, tax awareness, and changes in beverage purchasing over time and across four countries with and without SSB taxes. The study used data from the 2017, 2018 and 2019 waves of the International Food Policy Study. Annual cross-sectional online surveys were conducted in Australia, Mexico, UK and US, which captured perceived cost of SSBs relative to non-SSBs in all countries (with Australia as a no-tax comparator), and measures of tax awareness and participants’ reported changes in beverage purchasing in response to SSB taxes in Mexico (tax implemented in 2014), UK (tax implemented in 2018) and US (subnational taxes since 2015). Logistic regression models evaluated the measures across years and socio-demographic groups. Perceived cost of SSBs relative to non-SSBs was higher in Mexico (all three years) and the UK (2018 and 2019 following tax implementation) than Australia and the US. Tax awareness was higher in UK than Mexico, and decreased over time among Mexican respondents. Patterns of reported beverage purchasing changes in response to the tax were similar across Mexico, UK and US, with the largest changes reported by Mexican respondents. Respondents with characteristics corresponding to lower socioeconomic status were less likely to be aware of an SSB tax, but more likely to perceive SSBs to cost more than non-SSBs and report changes in purchasing in response to the tax, where there was one. This study suggests that in countries where a national SSB tax was present (Mexico, UK), perceived cost of SSBs and tax awareness were higher compared to countries with no SSB tax (Australia) or subnational SSB taxes (US), respectively, and suggests that perceived cost and tax awareness represent distinct constructs. Improving the ‘signalling effect’ of existing SSB taxes may be warranted, particularly in tax settings where consumer behaviour change is a policy objective.
