Deimplementation of Inappropriate Feeding Practices in Early Care and Education Settings
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Arkansas and Louisiana have among the highest rates of adult obesity in the United States at 38.7% and 38.6%, respectively. Prevention and intervention efforts are needed to reduce the number of children who will become obese adults and suffer the host of negative health consequences that accompany it. This proposal will develop and test strategies to stop the use of detrimental feeding practices by early childhood educators which promote unhealthy weight trajectories, inappropriate eating behaviors and poor dietary outcomes for children.
