UConn Rudd Center for Food Policy and Health

This report assessed parents’ attitudes about food marketing, including its reach and influence on children and adolescents. The survey also examined parents’ perceptions of possible environmental influences on their children’s eating habits and their support for policies to promote healthy eating habits in children. As a non-probability based panel was used for this survey, the findings are not representative of the entire U.S. population of parents of children 2-17 years old.
