Introduction
Hello! I’m so glad you are here today! My name is Sabrina and this is Kate and we’ll be talking with you for the next 30 minutes about food. Kate will be taking notes to record the topics we will talk about today, but everything will be private. Does anyone have any questions or objections?
Guidelines
First, I will ask some questions and after each question I will give you some time to answer out loud. I only ask that you don’t talk at once, so we can hear what other have to say. There are no right or wrong answers and your answers will not be graded. I would just like you to be as truthful as possible. Again, does anyone have any questions or objections?
Ice Breaker
Name tags Now I’d like to write your first name down on the paper I have you so we can get to know each other better.
Next, can anyone tell me your favorite FV that you like to eat at (home/school)?
Let me start: I like apples Questions
Identify specific foods
Identify who controls access to that food
Identify strategies for increasing frequency of food if it is an item that’s appropriate
Identify
additional foods that get into the broad construct on how do you change the menu that is
offered/influence at home
Home-Based Questions
(Choose first student and ask about favorite food) How often do you get to eat (favorite FV) at home?
Probe: you must have other FV you like. Is there a food you eat a lot of that you like?
(Ask audience) Would anyone else like to share a food that they like?
Additional question for transition: who would you talk to at home to get more of it?
Example: I would ask my mom to get more of it
How can you ask for that item from (that person)?
Probe: Do you think it usually works?
Example: I will go to the grocery store and pick out what I want
How do you help in making your favorite FV at home?
Probe: If you can, what would you do to help make FV?
School-Based Questions
Who could you talk to if you wanted to get more of these foods at school?
How would you go about asking (person at school) for more of your favorite foods?
