This study was a first step to understand if celebrities can have a positive influence in adolescents’ views of healthy food. Research was done to 13 and 14 year olds who were divided into experimental and control groups. The first observed an episode which included a scene of a celebrity eating healthily followed by a questionnaire focused on attitudes towards healthy eating. Results suggest that teens align their attitudes to be the same as the celebrity’s. Moreover, celebrities can be stronger role models than peers and this effect will be higher for teenagers who are more easily influenced. In the end, this study shows that celebrities are able to transmit healthy eating habits successfully and effectively.NSBE - UNLAgante, LuísaRUNGregório, Filipa dos Reis2014-03-25T10:34:47Z2014-012014-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/11817TID:201527189enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T17:15:47Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/11817Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T16:46:57.097137Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
