Evolution of olfactory responses in the first two years of life : effect of early exposures and link with food behaviour
2013
The role of taste on food preferences has already been investigated, however, little is known about the role of olfaction. The main objectives of this work were to assess infants’ olfactory responses, their dynamic during the first two years of life, and also their links with early food exposures, food liking and infants’ food neophobia. This work was conducted within a longitudinal study named OPALINE (Observatory of food preferences in infants and children). Olfactory responses were assessed, in 8-, 12- and 22-month-old infants, towards pleasant odours, such as vanilla, and unpleasant odours, such as fish. The results reveal that, from 8 months, infants can discriminate pleasant and unple…

A categorization and executive functions approach of food rejection in young children
2021
Food neophobia and pickiness are two strong psychological obstacles to young children’s consumption of fruits and vegetables, which are necessary components of a diet that facilitates normal and healthy development. It is therefore of critical importance to investigate the cognitive underpinnings of these two kinds of food rejection to promote the adoption of healthy eating behaviors. Food acceptance and rejection appear to be partly conditioned by children’s knowledge of the food domain. Knowledge allows children to recognize a given food, categorize it, and make inference-based decisions on its properties and possible consequences of consumption. Underdeveloped knowledge may cause food st…

Les enfants difficiles à table : conceptualisation et évolution
2022
L'objectif du présent article est de proposer un état des lieux des études récentes permettant d'offrir un cadre conceptuel et opérationnel au concept de comportement difficile à table, tout en mettant en lumière les conséquences psychologiques pour l'enfant, ainsi que les pratiques éducatives parentales associées. L'article ambitionne aussi de déterminer dans quelle mesure un enfant difficile est un mangeur à risque de développer ultérieurement des troubles du comportement alimentaire (anorexie mentale, ARFID), et quelles seraient les pistes à privilégier, en termes de guidance parentale, pour accompagner l'enfant.
Effet d'une éducation sensorielle sur les préférences et les comportements alimentaires d'enfants en classe de cours moyen (CM).
2008
Sensory experience of a meal (or mere exposure) can interact with preferences and food behaviour. On the other hand, current campaigns of nutritional information try to modify food behaviours by making people aware of the dangers of over eating and providing guidelines for healthy eating behaviour. Nevertheless, this approach doesn't take into account the pleasure to eat. The project "EduSens" bases itself on a hedonist and sensory approach in taste education that unites exposure to food and information about food. The aim of the study was to first develop tools to evaluate the effects of this sensory education and then to use them to measure the effects of a sensory education in a school c…
Le bébé gastronome
2018
L’alimentation des très jeunes enfants suscite de nombreuses interrogations : pourquoi Lou dévore-t-elle son plat d’épinards alors que Diego refusera catégoriquement d’y goûter ? Comment se fait-il qu’hier encore, Lou raffolait du gratin de courgettes alors qu’elle fait aujourd’hui la grimace dès qu’elle sent son odeur ? Et que faire avec Diego, qui dit « non » à tous les nouveaux plats qu’on lui propose ?Faut-il forcer un enfant à finir son assiette ? Comment peut-on proposer l’alimentation variée et équilibrée recommandée par les nutritionnistes quand un enfant refuse de goûter ?Il faut l’avouer, nourrir nos chers petits peut parfois s’avérer être un vrai casse-tête !
Spilling the beans: The development of conceptual knowledge about food and its links with food rejection in young children (3-7-years-old)
2021
Insufficient dietary variety in children leads to significant nutrient deficiencies and health issues, both in childhood and later life (DeCosta et al., 2017). Cognitive mechanisms, such as categorization and conceptual knowledge, play an important role in understanding and appropriately accepting or rejecting foods (Mura Paroche et al., 2017). The food domain lends itself to many concepts and categories, such as taxonomic (i.e., lamb is meat), thematic (i.e., lamb goes on a plate), or script (i.e., lamb is eaten at dinner). Such knowledge aids accurate recognition, understanding, and appropriate interaction when confronted with foods situated in context. If conceptual knowledge is underdev…
