The study also sought to assess the creative strategies used and extent of appeal to young people.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980021005048_as2\"><jats:title>Design:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Images of bus shelter advertisements were collected via in person photography (in 2019) and Google Street View (photos recorded in 2018). Food and beverage advertisements were grouped into one of seventeen food categories and classified as healthy\/less healthy using the UK Nutrient Profile Model. The deprivation level of the advertisement location was identified using the UK Index of Multiple Deprivation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980021005048_as3\"><jats:title>Setting:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland in South Teesside.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980021005048_as4\"><jats:title>Participants:<\/jats:title><jats:p>N\/A<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980021005048_as5\"><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Eight hundred and thirty-two advertisements were identified, almost half (48\u00b79 %) of which were for foods or beverages. Of food and non-alcoholic beverage adverts, 35\u00b71 % were less healthy. Most food advertisements (98\u00b79 %) used at least one of the persuasive creative strategies. Food advertisements were found to be of appeal to children under 18 years of age (71\u00b79 %). No differences in healthiness of advertised foods were found by level of deprivation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1368980021005048_as6\"><jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Food advertising is extensive on bus shelters in parts of the UK, and a substantial proportion of this advertising is classified as less healthy and would not be permitted to be advertised around television programming for children. Bus shelter advertising should be considered part of the UK policy deliberations around restricting less healthy food marketing exposure.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1368980021005048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,3]],"date-time":"2022-01-03T05:56:49Z","timestamp":1641189409000},"page":"1989-2000","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["An analysis of food and beverage advertising on bus shelters in a deprived area of Northern England"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"25","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7509-4772","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amy Heather","family":"Finlay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Scott","family":"Lloyd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amelia","family":"Lake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Armstrong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Fishpool","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Green","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Helen J","family":"Moore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claire","family":"O\u2019Malley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emma J","family":"Boyland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1368980021005048_ref60","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jue.2006.12.004","article-title":"Why do the poor live in cities?
