Study Population

Spanish people included in a Spanish private database (Netquest Iberia, more than 100,000 available panelists), constituted as a closed panel of caregivers of infants \<2years old who prepare at least complementary feeding twice a week (actual or in the past). The panel of participants has the ISO 26362 certification, which represents the level of quality contrasted in methods of recruitment, panelization, treatment of the panelist and the data. In order to broaden the geographical diversity of the participants, and based on the characteristics of the panel used, the objective is to reach the maximum number of possible surveys in the observation period of the appropriate panelists (1,925 surveys in 10 days).

You may qualify if:

• people included in a Spanish private database (Netquest Iberia
• caregivers of infants \<2years old who prepare at least complementary feeding twice a week (actual or in the past)
• any texture/type of complementary feeding (blended/beikost/solid)
