Message Framing and Policy Support for Front-of-package Labeling
February 28, 2024 updated by: University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
Effects of Message Framing on Policy Support for Front-of-package Nutrition Labeling Among Latino and Limited English Proficiency Populations.
This study aims to assess whether different message framing about front-of-package labeling policies elicits more policy support than the control (no framing) among Latino and limited English proficiency populations.
The study also seeks to identify which message framing elicits the most policy support.

Conditions
Detailed Description
Participants will complete a between-subjects online randomized experiment.
Participants will be randomized to 1 of 4 arms: 1) No framing (control), 2) Information framing, 3) Healthier choices framing, and 4) Industry framing.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control (No framing)
Participants will view one message about the front-of-package labeling policy.
The message will display the same introductory sentence as all experimental arms, but it will not include a framed message about the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy.
|
|
Experimental: Information framing
Participants will view one message that frames the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as providing nutritional information.
|
The information framing message presents the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as providing nutritional information.
|
Experimental: Healthier choices framing
Participants will view one message that frames the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as encouraging consumers to make healthier choices.
|
The healthier choices framing message presents the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as encouraging consumers to make healthier choices.
|
Experimental: Industry framing
Participants will view one message that frames the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as encouraging the food industry to make healthier products.
|
The industry framing message presents the objective of the front-of-package labeling policy as encouraging the food industry to make healthier products.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Support for the front-of-package labeling policy, proportion
Time Frame: During exposure to intervention (i.e., message about policy), assessed during one-time online 10-minute survey.
|
Policy support will be assessed with 1 item: "How much would you support or oppose this policy?"
This item will be measured on a 4-point scale ranging from (1) "Strongly oppose this policy" to (4) "Strongly support this policy", where higher scores indicate higher support for the front-of-package labeling policy.
The final outcome will be dichotomized so that 0=Oppose this policy and 1=Support this policy.
