Specifically, a cluster randomised controlled trial will be conducted in primary schools in Lima, Peru. After informed consent of the tutor psychologists, children and parents, schools will be randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, to the intervention or control group, with a total of 240 fourth grade students and 24 tutor psychologists. The primary and secondary research questions are as follows.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from the child's initial symbolic consumption at 6 weeks
时间窗: Baseline, 6 weeks
The Symbolic Consumption Response Register (CRR) consists of 15 questions that are used to assess children's attitudes related to symbolic consumption. The frequency of children's symbolic consumption responses during the past week is rated on a 17-point scale (lowest frequency of symbolism = 1-4; intermediate frequency of symbolism = 5-13; highest frequency of symbolism = 14-17). Responses will be examined as an overall result and separately on understanding the persuasive intent of yoghurt advertising, on awareness of peer pressure and on critical attitude to consumption. Information for recording responses will be obtained from two interviews with the child and one interview with the parents, and from the six psychoeducational strategies developed with the children and one session with the parents. The answers of the children and their parents will be reported orally. The responses will be analysed separately.
Change from the child's initial symbolic consumption at 19 weeks
