Fruit and Vegetable Vouchers With and Without an SSB Tax (EVIDENCE)
The EValuating Interventions in Diabetogenic Environments Through Natural Controlled Experiments (EVIDENCE) Trial
調査の概要
詳細な説明
We will test the hypothesis that a positive incentive for healthy foods (fresh fruits and vegetables, F&Vs) will be utilized as effectively in a community without a purchasing penalty for unhealthy foods (a sugar-sweetened beverage [SSB] tax) as in a community with a purchasing penalty for unhealthy foods (a SSB tax). Our experiment will test the empirically-driven hypothesis in a real-world setting through a noninferiority design: comparing the impact of F&V vouchers in two counties, one without (Los Angeles) and one with (San Francisco) a SSB tax.
Each study participant will receive four paper vouchers per month for a total of six months. Each of these vouchers can be redeemed for fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables at a number of specified local corner stores, supermarkets, or farmer's markets.
Half of these participants will receive and spend these vouchers in an environment which has implemented a SSB tax (SF); the other half will receive and spend these same vouchers in a non-tax environment (LA).
Each individual participant will be enrolled in the study for a total of seven months from initial orientation and participant consent (M0) to final data collection during final month of intervention (M6).
We are using a non-inferiority trial design. We are aiming to test whether there is a significant difference in total cup-equivalents of F&V intake in LA participants as compared to SF participants when given F&V vouchers. That is, we aim to test whether the F&V voucher is less effective in LA than in SF. This is important to test because it has been purported that SF has a unique food environment with high accessibility to fresh F&V through farmer's markets and a plethora of corner stores, as well as a SSB tax that discourages less healthy foods, potentially leaving more funds for healthier F&Vs. Thus, we aim to determine the change in consumption of F&V in LA participants is non-inferiority to that of SF participants, when both are given F&V vouchers.

実験的:San Francisco
Each study participant will receive four paper vouchers per month for a total of six months.
Each of these vouchers can be redeemed for fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables at a number of specified local corner stores, supermarkets, or farmer's markets.
The San Francisco participants will receive and spend these vouchers in an environment which has implemented a sugar-sweetened beverage tax.
|
Participants will receive four vouchers, each dated for a month, to be used on fruits and vegetables at specified local corner stores, supermarkets, and farmer's markets for a duration of six months.
Each study participant will have the same intervention, as this is a non-inferiority trial to compare voucher use in LA and test whether the nutritional effects of that use are non-inferior to use in SF.
