Advertisement of Junk Food Directed Towards Children

SOC 213

Southern New Hampshire University




The contemporary social problem that I have selected it the advertisement of junk food

directed towards children. The relevance of advertisement of junk food directed towards children

in today’s society on a local scale is because these advertisements are becoming more relevant in

pop up adds, billboards, commercials, etc. These are ways that the advertisement of junk food

directed towards children is presenting itself in the United States and my local community. It

seems as if every corner I turn, every commercial that comes on the television, and every ad that

pops up on my phone is an advertisement for junk food.

The social variables and determinants influencing the development of advertisement of

junk food directed towards children on a local level are parents, family, and the child’s

environment. Parents are a social variable influencing the development of the advertisement of

junk food directed towards children because the parents are the ones that may buy the children

the junk food, they may use the business as a place for rewarding the child, not teaching the child

or children about healthy eating, and themselves promoting the junk food to their children.

Family is a social variable influencing the development of the advertisement of junk food

directed towards children for some of the same reasons as the parents. As well as, holding a

child’s birthday at a business that promotes junk food, and using the business promoting junk

food to “spoil” the children. For example, a grandmother that only sees her grandchildren once a

month or every week may start and continue the habit of going through the McDonald’s drive

thru with the children and getting them a meal and an ice cream cone. The child’s environment is

a social determinant influencing the development of junk food directed towards children because

, a child that lives within a city would have more access to a business that sells junk food rather

than a child that lives out in the country. The child that lives out in the country would not have as

easy access to a business that sells junk food. These social variables and determinants greatly

influence the development of the advertisement of junk food directed towards children on a local

level.

The social variables and determinants influencing the development of advertisement of

junk food towards children on a global level are catchy commercials, pop up advertisements, and

games/downloadable applications. Catchy commercials are a social variable influencing the

development of advertisements of junk food directed towards children because the can promote a

play place located within the business for the children and showing children the toys that they

may get with the meals. I want to make a point that I know some commercials are identical, but

there are some that are targeted for specific areas such as suburb areas, rural areas, etc. Pop up

advertisements can be anywhere at any time. Whether you are playing a game on an electrical

device, watching television, or reading on an electrical device. These advertisements are tended

to grab your attention and persuade you to by the product that they are promoting. Some of these

advertisements are flashy, bright colors, loud audio, etc. all to grasp your attention quickly and

hold it. Then they describe this junk food in a manner that will make your mouth water, making

you crave this product. The reason that this social variable influences the development of junk

food towards children at a global level is because most companies tend to product advertisements

in bulk, only having to change the language. Americans may get the same pop up advertisement

as someone in Japan, only ours would be in English and theirs would be in Japanese.

Games/downloadable applications are a social variable influencing the development of

advertisements of junk food directed towards children because they tend to be games that

children would play, the rewards in these applications only promote more business for the
