Abstract OBJECTIVE: To identify and rank perceived personal benefits from parenting practices that promote intake
of calcium-rich foods and beverages (CRF/B) by early adolescents.
METHODS: A convenience sample of parents/caregivers (n = 133) of early adolescents (10-13 years) from
6 states (CA, HI, MN, OH, OR, UT) participated in a qualitative study using a Nominal Group Technique
process. Benefits identified by parents/caregivers were ranked by importance, given a score weight, and
summed to create a total weighted score across states.
RESULTS: The top benefit from making CRF/B available was parent emotional rewards. The top benefit
perceived by parents from role modeling intake of CRF/B and setting expectations for intake of CRB was
child health promotion.
CONCLUSIONS and IMPLICATIONS: Child health promotion and parent emotional rewards were important
perceived benefits derived from CRF/B parenting practices, and thus, should be included as the focus of
education to increase the frequency of these practices.
