Abstract

The objectives of this study were to distinguish family profiles based on the level of satisfaction with food-related life (SWFoL) of mothers, fathers, and adolescents, and to characterize the profiles based on the three family members’ diet quality and nutritional status, family’s eating habits, parental feeding practices, parent’s nutritional knowledge, and sociodemographic characteristics. Questionnaires were applied to a sample of 300 two-parent families with adolescent children, aged between 10 and 17 years, in Temuco, Chile. The questionnaires used were: satisfaction with food-related life (SWFoL); adapted healthy eating index (AHEI); family eating habits questionnaire (FEHQ); and the nutritional knowledge subscale. They also answered questions about eating habits and provided data to determine BMI and sociodemographic characteristics. Four different profiles were identified with respect to SWFoL: “Families satisfied with their food” (50.6%); “Fathers and mothers moderately satisfied with their food, children satisfied” (23.2%); “Families extremely satisfied with their food” (16.6%); and “Fathers and mothers satisfied with their food, children extremely dissatisfied” (9.7%). The profiles demonstrated heterogeneity in SWFoL. Higher levels of SWFoL (mothers, fathers and adolescents) were associated with healthier eating habits. These results contribute to new studies that enable understanding of how families’ healthy eating habits are part of improving quality of life.
