The impact of deprivation and neighbourhood food environments on home food environments, parental feeding practices, child eating behaviours, food preferences and BMI: The Family F... by Andrea D Smith, Alice Kininmonth, Kristiane Tommerup, David Boniface, Chiara Gericke, Tiffany Denning, Carolyn Summerbell, Christina Vogel, Clare Llewellyn

“…Greater deprivation was also associated with a more obesogenic home food environment (β = -0.19, p < 0.001) and lower meal structure (β = 0.17, p < 0.001). Exposure to less healthy neighbourhood food environments around and between home and school were associated with a more obesogenic home food environment (β = -0.07, p < 0.01), but no significant associations were found with feeding practices, child eating behaviours or child BMI. …”
