Clustering and correlates of screen-time and eating behaviours among young children.

ST and unhealthy dietary behaviours cluster in children as young as 5 years of age and parents' own behaviours appear to be important influencing factors. Further research into the development of behavioural clustering in young children to identify and further understand the mechanisms underlying the synergy among health behaviours is needed. Feasibility interventions promoting reductions in both screen-time and unhealthy dietary behaviours reciprocally, while simultaneously focusing on changing parental behaviours, are warranted.
