"The Impact of Food Advertising on Childhood Obesity." Apa.org. 2015
American Psychological Association, n.d. Web. 08 Mar. 2015.
This reliable website discusses studies done about childhood obesity
and fast food marketing. Psychologists gathered information
throughout America and created many statistics that will be useful and
informative in my paper. It discusses how often children are viewing
media and seeing advertisements for food and restaurants. It also
discusses how these commercials and marketing techniques effect a
childs wants. A child will crave more unhealthy fast food if they view it
more on a TV or computer. They also briefly talk about how to prevent
this from happening and how to influence children to step away from
technology and go outside to play instead. The authors of this website
are not named, but the website is from a well-known source, American
Psychologists Association. Its safe to guess that this was either written
or review by psychologists. I believe the intended audience for this is
people who are studying childhood obesity and are trying to prevent it.
This source is very helpful as it is full of statistics and numbers that
prove some facts for my paper. This source solidified my view on the
topic of obesity and marketing correlations. I believe this source will
appear sited in my paper many times.
