Summary

This study tests whether public service announcements (PSAs) can help U.S. Hispanic adults understand and use added-sugars warning labels on restaurant menus. About 2,000 participants will watch either a PSA about the new labels or a control PSA about phone use while driving. Then they will order meals from menus with the labels, and researchers will measure how well they notice and understand the labels and how much added sugar they order.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Public service announcements about added-sugars warning labels
What this could lead to
If effective, these announcements could help people make healthier food choices and inform future public health campaigns.
What could go wrong
The study relies on hypothetical meal orders, which may not reflect real-world choices. The results may not apply to all Hispanic adults.

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Aug 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Oct 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
