我们在这篇文章中的目标是考察经济因素的作用和影响，经济因素的定义相当宽泛，对消费者的食物选择，从而对营养结果的影响。我们试图以一种非技术性的方式来做到这一点。我们考察了价格的作用，特别是当它们与美国的食品可负担性有关时，以及作为政策杠杆的作用。收入被分析为饮食习惯变化背后的驱动力，特别是增加了对便利的需求。时间限制和时间偏好的作用被视为与健康饮食习惯的联系，以及作为当前饮食模式趋势背后的因素。信息和知识在平衡推动饮食习惯的经济力量方面发挥了突出的作用。对孕妇营养知识和儿童膳食质量进行总结和检验。爱思唯尔科学有限公司出版。
Our goal in this paper is to examine the role and influence of economic factors, defined rather broadly, on consumer food choices, and, hence, nutritional outcomes. We attempt to do this in a non-technical fashion. We examine the role of prices, especially as they relate to the affordability of food in the United States and as a policy lever. Income is analyzed as a driving force behind changes in eating habits, in particular increasing the demand for convenience. The role of time constraints as well as time preference are examined as links to healthy eating habits and as fords behind current trends in eating patterns. Information and knowledge are given prominent play as counter balances to economic forces driving eating habits. We conclude with and examination into maternal nutrition knowledge and children's dietary quality. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
