Evaluating adolescent eating autonomy through ecological momentary assessment
These findings suggest that adolescents demonstrate significant autonomy over food choices, that varies by social context, type of eating occasion, and time of day. Understanding these patterns can inform adolescent-focused and parental support interventions aimed at improving adolescents' dietary behaviors by targeting specific contexts where autonomy is greater. The insights gained from this study can help shape strategies that promote healthier eating habits among adolescents by enhancing their decision-making autonomy in various contexts.
