Why is it important?
The intention to purchase healthy food and the perceived behavioral control tend to influence the purchasing behavior. The study supports the alignment of the theory of planned behavior adherence to health issues, extending the understanding of the behavior of purchasing healthy foods for children. These results may have relevant implications for preventive and interventional programs related to the practice of healthy eating.
