Abstract
This review explores the influences of family and academy members on children in China, in order to promote healthy eating behaviours among children and help nonage malnutrition in the Global South. Family members and academy members are defined as parents, guardians (similar as grandparents and other cousins), siblings, peers,and preceptors. A hunt of four databases returned 94 papers, 18 of which met the eligibility criteria. Utmost of the included studies were from landmass China; a many were from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Further quantitative than qualitative studies were set up,among which, cross-sectional studies were dominant.The 18 papers included in the study explored the influences of family members and academy members on the eating behaviours of children,grounded on seven themes social – demographic characteristics,food input of parents,nutritive knowledge and health mindfulness of family or academy members, parents’ comprehensions of their children’s body weight,feeding strategies of family members,family connections,and intergenerational differences of caregivers. In the current analysis,maternal education situations,mama’s occupation,health mindfulness of parents and preceptors,and positive feeding styles,similar as encouraging healthy eating and controlling gluttony,were appreciatively identified with the healthy eating behaviours of children.Meanwhile, healthy eating behaviours of children were negatively associated with caregivers ’ lack of nutritive knowledge, misperception of weight, necessary and/ or emotional feeding, and working on nonstandard shifts. further affiliated exploration using cross-disciplinary approaches is demanded and there should be more conversations about how preceptors, siblings, and peers affect the salutary behaviours of children.
