Promoting Food Acceptance Through Positive Parenting: the Play and Grow Study
Promoting Healthier Food Acceptance and Intake Among Young Children Using a Novel Positive Parent-Child Interaction Strategy
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Aug 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Approximately one half of adults and one-fifth of children have obesity, including 14% of 2-5-year-olds. Early obesity prevention is essential as children who are overweight by age 5 are at increased risk for later obesity. Dietary intake is inextricably linked to weight status, and the majority of young children fail to meet intake recommendations, with socioeconomically disadvantaged and racial/ethnic minority children at increased risk of poor diet quality. However, children's liking of healthier foods predicts their intake, and children can learn to like healthier foods via experience. The current study brings together evidence from the parenting and learning literatures to: 1) examine effects of a novel learning strategy leveraging positive parent-child interactions on 3-5-year-old children's vegetable acceptance and dietary intake, as well as to explore 2) individual differences in learning strategy effects.
