"They make the food look really aesthetic and pretty, and make me kind of wanna eat it more."
Adolescents enjoy engaging social media junk food promotions, but what food content are they exposed to and how aware are they of it? Read our recent publication: https://t.co/QfFkBF2ftd
"It looks like a lot of fun, and it is a lot of fun."

How do you view your food after you exercise? As a reward? Replenishment of nutrients? 🤔A new Diet-Related Beliefs of Exercisers Scale has recently been developed to shed more light on the interplay of exercise 🏃♀️ and eating 🍏https://t.co/Rib36UNwL6 @UniCologne @UON_research
@VasiloglouMaria@TamBucher Adults are better capable of cognitively processing ads than children/young adolescents, but as social media ads are much more integrated in content - everyday, anytime - and personalised, anyone viewing them will likely be less aware of them. More evidence on this needed though!
@VasiloglouMaria@TamBucher@VasiloglouMaria thanks! Research on (mostly TV) food marketing has shown that this indeed makes children buy and consume those (i.e. mostly junk) foods. However, we need more research on (the impact of) social media food marketing specifically and also on the adolescent group.
My research presented at #Eurosense2020 by @EllenvanKleef at her keynote! Adolescents are heavily targeted by social media food marketing, but there's so much more evidence needed to learn about social media marketing tactics and their actual impact!
Social media has changed the way teenagers r influenced to purchase #unhealthyfood. Most kids don´t notice they are watching an ad on SoMe. -> regulations needed & nudging 4 healthier food. Nudging works, but difficult! Thanks to Ellen van Kleef for her keynote at #eurosense2020.
Researchers at @Uni_Newcastle and HMRI are conducting an Australian first, two-nation study into the impact of social media food marketing to teenagers.
