ObjectiveInvestigate attention to Nutrition Facts Labels (NFLs) with numeric only vs both numeric and activity-equivalent calorie information, and attitudes toward activity-equivalent calories.DesignAn eye-tracking camera monitored participants' viewing of NFLs for 64 packaged foods with either standard NFLs or modified NFLs. Participants self-reported demographic information and diet-related attitudes and behaviors.SettingParticipants came to the Behavioral Medicine Lab at Colorado State University in spring, 2015.ParticipantsThe researchers randomized 234 participants to view NFLs with numeric calorie information only (n = 108) or numeric and activity-equivalent calorie information (n = 126).Main Outcome Measure(s)Attention to and attitudes about activity-equivalent calorie information.AnalysisDifferences by experimental condition and weight loss intention (overall and within experimental condition) were assessed using t tests and Pearson's chi-square tests of independence.ResultsOverall, participants viewed numeric calorie information on 20% of NFLs for 249 ms. Participants in the modified NFL condition viewed activity-equivalent information on 17% of NFLs for 231 ms. Most participants indicated that activity-equivalent calorie information would help them decide whether to eat a food (69%) and that they preferred both numeric and activity-equivalent calorie information on NFLs (70%).Conclusions and ImplicationsParticipants used activity-equivalent calorie information on NFLs and found this information helpful for making food decisions.
