Supper Heroes: esaminare l'impatto di un intervento alimentare online per le famiglie

La quantità di rifiuti alimentari evitabili generati viene misurata come differenza di peso (grammi) tra basale (T0), post-intervento/controllo (T1) e follow-up di 6 mesi (T2), come valutato dai diari pesati di rifiuti alimentari. I partecipanti completeranno un diario di rifiuti alimentari utilizzando una scala da cucina fornita e istruzioni dettagliate su come farlo. La quantità di rifiuti alimentari evitabili verrà confrontato tra i partecipanti al gruppo di intervento degli eroi della cena e quelli del gruppo di controllo.

Strumento di misurazione: diario dei rifiuti alimentari e scala della cucina.

Unità di misura: alle famiglie verrà chiesto di elencare tutto il cibo gettato via, il peso del cibo (Gams) e il motivo per cui il cibo è stato gettato via (ad esempio, è andato male) per 7 giorni.

Punti temporali: basale (T0): post -intervento/controllo (T1 - dopo il completamento delle attività di intervento o di controllo, 7 settimane); follow -up (T2 - 6 mesi dopo aver completato le attività di intervento o controllo).

The amount of plant-based foods consumed by parents and children is measured as the mean servings of plant-based foods, as assessed by a web-based food frequency questionnaire. This will be compared between participants in the Supper Heroes intervention group and those in the control group.

Measurement Tool: Food frequency questionnaire adapted from Canadian Diet History Questionnaire II

Unit of Measure: Servings of plant-based foods consumed per day

Time Points: Baseline (T0): post-intervention/control (T1 - after completion of either intervention or control activities, 7 weeks); follow-up (T2 - 6 months after completing the intervention or control activities).

The amount of red and processed meats consumed by parents and children, measured as the average daily intake (servings) of red and processed meats, as assessed by a web-based food frequency questionnaire. This will be compared between participants in the Supper Heroes intervention group and those in the control group.

Measurement Tool: Food frequency questionnaire adapted from Canadian Diet History Questionnaire II

Unit of Measure: Servings of red and processed meats consumed per day

Time Points: Baseline (T0): post-intervention/control (T1 - after completion of either intervention or control activities, 7 weeks); follow-up (T2 - 6 months after completing the intervention or control activities).

The changes in parents' and children's attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, measured using items previously validated in the feasibility study, as potential mediators of the intervention effects on the primary and secondary outcomes. These constructs will be assessed before and after the intervention to determine their role in mediating changes in behavior, such as the intake of plant-based foods and red/processed meats.

Time Points: Baseline (T0): post-intervention/control (T1 - after completion of either intervention or control activities, 7 weeks).
