简要总结
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to compare taxation with subsidies to encourage healthier food choices in the out-of-home food sector. Participants will be asked to make hypothetical food choices in an online simulation study of a delivery app. Participants will be randomised into four different intervention groups:
- Price reduction (10%) on healthier foods
- Price increase (10%) to less healthy foods
- A combination of price reduction to healthier foods and price increase to less healthy foods
- Existing price structure (i.e. control group)
The investigators will further examine effectiveness of these fiscal policies on healthy eating by socioeconomic position to understand whether these policies are equitable.
