    Food brands, YouTube and Children: Media practices in the context of the PAOS self-regulation code
    (Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2021) Tur-Viñes, V. (Victoria); Castelló-Martínez, A. (Araceli)
    The objective of this study is to analyze media practices involving food content on YouTube in terms of the self-regulatory framework established by the PAOS code, which was originally designed for television. The study considers content created and disseminated by two different sources: food brands and child YouTuber channels. We conducted an exploratory qualitative-quantitative study based on a content analysis of videos posted in 2019 on the most viewed YouTube channels in Spain (Socialblade, 2019). The final sample included 211 videos (29h 57m) divided into two subsamples: the official channels of 13 Spanish food brands (82 videos), and 15 Spanish child YouTuber channels (129 videos). The study has facilitated information on nine dimensions: (1) adherence to regulations and ethical standards, (2) nutrition education and information, (3) identification of advertising, (4) presence of risk, (5) clarity in the presentation of the product and in the language used, (6) pressure selling, (7) promotions, giveaways, competitions, and children’s clubs, (8) support and promotion through characters and programs and (9) comparative presentations. The main findings reveal the experimental nature of videos featuring food brands that are posted on YouTube for child audiences, especially videos broadcast on the channels of child YouTubers, who post content without an ethical strategy sensitive to their target audience. The lack of compliance with the basic requirement of identifying the video as advertising underscores the urgent need to adapt existing legal and ethical standards to these new formulas of commercial communication.

    El artículo estudia el uso de Twitter como canal de comunicación corporativa y publicitaria. Para ello se realiza un análisis de contenido sobre los perfiles en este soporte de los principales anunciantes en España según el ranking de InfoAdex. Las variables definidas se centran en la descripción de los perfiles de los anunciantes, la frecuencia de publicación, el tipo de publicaciones y la repuesta e interacción que se obtiene de los usuarios, analizando la capacidad de los anunciantes de difundir contenidos y generar conversación, por una parte, y la reputación obtenida en esta red de microblogging, por otra.
