Is harsh caregiving effective in toddlers with low inhibitory control? An experimental study in the food domain

2016

International audience; The aim of our study is to evaluate the validity of the "Caregiving x Temperament Paradigm" in the food domain. In this study, two prototypes of caregiving,control have been contrasted: Harsh (forceful measures to curve the child's behavior) versus Gentle control (supportive measures to direct the child's behavior). In food domain, the most effective control to help a child to overcome initial dislike is repeated exposure. Our first objective was to test whether the repeated exposure displayed in a gentle context has a more benefical effect on dislike shifting than the one displayed in a harsh context. Our second objective was to assess whether this effect was modera…

How does eating in the absence of hunger in children relate to child's BMI, inhibitory control and to maternal controlling feeding practices?

2021

International audience; Young children have an innate ability to self-regulate their food-intake by following their inner sensations of hunger and satiation. Children's temperamental traits and environmental factors, such as controlling feeding practices, can alter their self-regulation abilities and can induce weight gain in the long-term. The current study aimed to study how young children's eating in the absence of hunger (EAH) is related to their level of inhibitory control, body mass index (BMI) and maternal controlling feeding practices (food as reward, restriction for health, restriction for weight control). Mothers of 621 French children aged 2.00-6.97 years (51% boys, M = 4.11 year…

Evaluation of an eHealth intervention aiming to promote healthy food habits from infancy -the Norwegian randomized controlled trial Early Food for Fu…

2019

Background Strategies to optimize early-life nutrition provide an important opportunity for primary prevention of childhood obesity. Interventions that can be efficiently scaled-up to the magnitude needed for sustainable childhood obesity prevention are needed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of an eHealth intervention on parental feeding practices and infant eating behaviors. Methods The Norwegian study Early Food for Future Health is a randomized controlled trial. Parents were recruited via social media and child health clinics during spring 2016 when their child was aged 3 to 5 months. In total 718 parents completed a web-based baseline questionnaire at child age …

Determining Factors and Critical Periods in the Formation of Eating Habits: Results from the Habeat Project

2016

Un article correspondant à cette présentation devrait paraître en 2017 dans Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism.Un article correspondant à cette présentation devrait paraître en 2017 dans Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism.; Eating habits form early during childhood and are likely to track until the beginning of adulthood. Thus, understanding the formation of eating habits is important. In the HabEat* project we focused on the development of preferences for vegetables since they are the less liked foods for children. Based on the analyses of data from different European cohorts, HabEat found that breast milk may facilitate the consumption of vegetables in later childhood. HabEat found some e…

Replication Data for: Examining the effects of an eHealth intervention from infant age 6 to 12 months on child eating behaviors and maternal feeding …

2019

This SPSS-dataset presents data from the Norwegian randomized controlled trial Early Food for Future Health. This project started in 2015, with the objective of developing an eHealth intervention providing guidance on protective feeding practices at child age 6-12 months aiming to promote healthy food habits from infancy. Previously, we have presented data obtained from the study`s web-based, self-administered questionnaires at baseline (child age 5 months) and after the end of the intervention (child age 12 months) on maternal feeding practices, child eating behaviour, food-intake and mealtime routines (n=533). Here we present follow-up data at child age 24 months, one year after cessation…

Détermination et transmission du goût. Importance des expériences précoces

2013

Compte tenu que les préférences et habitudes alimentaires sont acquises très précocement il est important de mieux comprendre l’impact des expériences précoces sur l’acceptation des fruits et légumes lors de la diversification alimentaire et pendant les premières années de vie. Au cours de cette présentation, des résultats d’études expérimentales ou observationnelles portant sur l’impact de l’allaitement, des pratiques de diversification (variété de l’offre, exposition répétée) et des pratiques éducatives sur l’acceptation des fruits et légumes seront présentées. La transmission des préférences alimentaires peut commencer au cours de la vie intra-utérine. Il a été montré que des nouveau-nés…

Appréciation d'un aliment nouveau et contrôle de la prise énergétique chez l'enfant : Impact de l'apprentissage

2013

In a context of high rate of obesity, understanding early formation of child eating behaviour, in qualitative and quantitative terms, is crucial. This work shows that new vegetable acceptance is positively associated with the introduction of variety since the beginning of the complementary feeding, and would be more difficult in 2 year old children. Moreover, the liking of a new food (vegetable or beverage) increases after familiarisation by repeated exposure. A transitional association between the new food and calories induces more stable liking than repeated exposure. However, a high energy density could limit intake of the new food by learned satiation. This result supports an ability of…
