title: Maternal discouragement and child intake of a palatable dessert A multilevel sequential analysis_2018.pdf

description: Background: Family mealtimes are often marked by parent-child conflict, which may arise when children'seating behaviors do not match parental expectations. Little is known about how children respond to parents'comments to discourage eating.Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the likelihood of a child taking a bite following a maternalstatement to discourage child intake.Methods: 50 mother-child dyads (mean child age 71.8 months) participated in a laboratory eating task withcupcakes. Video recordings were reliably coded for maternal statements to discourage child intake (varying bydomains of affective valence and directness) and child bites. Multilevel sequential analysis was performed todetermine differences in pairs' antecedent statement to discourage child intake and a child's discouraged bite.Results: Children were significantly more likely to be non-compliant by taking a bite following negative (vs.positive), indirect (vs. direct) and negative direct (vs. positive direct) statements to discourage child intake (thatis, a “discouraged bite”). There were no differences in children taking discouraged bites following a negativeindirect vs. positive indirect statement to discourage child intake.Conclusions: Children may be more apt to comply with their mother's mealtime commands if they are deliveredwith a direct approach and a positive affective valence. Future work should examine the longitudinal effects ofusing positive direct mealtime commands on children's food intake, weight gain and emotional health.

title: A mixed methods analysis of maternal response to children's consumption of a palatable food - differences by child weight status_2019.pdf

description: SummaryBackground: Little is known about how mothers respond to their child eatingpalatable foods.Objectives: The objectives of the study are to examine maternal behaviourswhen children are presented with a large portion of energy-dense palatable foodin an experimental setting and to examine differences by child weight status.Methods: Mother–child dyads (N = 37) (mean child age 70.8 months) participatedin a videotaped eating protocol with cupcakes. Anthropometrics were measured.Videos were analysed using discourse analysis and were reliably coded forthe presence or absence of the most salient theme. Analysis of variance examinedtheme presence by child and mother weight status.Results: Mothers disavowed responsibility for their child’s eating. Motherswere observed to roll their eyes at the child, throw their hands up in exasperationand distance themselves both physically and emotionally when the child ate thecupcakes voraciously or with high enjoyment. Mothers of children with obesity (vsrecommended weight) engaged in more counts of disavowal (p = 0.01).Conclusions: Mothers of children with obesity distanced themselves fromtheir child, seeming to disavow responsibility for the child’s eating of ‘junk food’.Mothers may respond to their child’s seemingly gluttonous eating by disavowing responsibilitydue to the stigma of being a parent of a child with obesity.

title: Approaches to restrictive feeding Associations with child weight and eating behavior_2018.pdf

description: Background: Identifying differences in how mothers communicate restriction of their children's eating may beimportant to understanding the effects of restriction on children's intake and weight status.Objectives: To characterize mothers' restrictive statements by affect and directness, and examine cross-sectionalassociations between restrictive statement types and children's body mass index and eating behaviors.Methods: Mother-child dyads (N=223, mean child age 5.9 years) participated in a structured eating task. Acoding scheme reliably characterized mothers' restrictive statements. Mothers completed measures of childenjoyment of food, food responsiveness, and satiety responsiveness, and child anthropometrics were measured.Poisson regression was used to test associations between type of restrictive statements and child BMI z-score(BMIz) and eating behaviors, adjusting for covariates.Results: Higher child BMIz was associated with mothers' more frequent use of negative direct restrictive statements,but not other types of statements. This association was stronger among girls (RR (95% CI)=2.28(1.45–3.59)) than boys (RR (95% CI)=1.49 (1.05–2.10)). Among girls, but not boys, higher enjoyment of foodand lower satiety responsiveness were associated with more frequent positive direct restrictive statements (RR(95% CI)=1.63 (1.20–2.21) and RR (95% CI)=1.94 (1.29–2.92), respectively). For both sexes, mothers' use ofpositive indirect restrictive statements was more frequent among children with higher enjoyment of food (RR(95% CI)=1.38 (1.11–1.72).Conclusions: The statements mothers use to restrict their children's eating vary in affect and directness. Childcharacteristics, such as sex, BMI, and the presence of specific eating behaviors, are associated with differingapproaches to restriction by mothers.

title: The Evolution of Mothers' Beliefs About Overweight and Obesity in Their Early School-Age Children_2016.pdf

description: OBJECTIVE: To identify changes in maternal beliefs, concerns,and perspectives about overweight and obesity in their childrenover a 2-year period.METHODS: A total of 37 low-income English-speakingmothers of overweight or obese children participated in 2 semistructuredinterviews, separated by about 2 years. Mean childage was 5.9 years at baseline and 8.2 years at follow-up. Motherand child anthropometric data were obtained, and motherscompleted demographic questionnaires at both time points.Mothers’ interviews were analyzed using the constant comparativemethod for longitudinal patterns of change in theirperspectives on childhood obesity across the 2 time points.RESULTS: Six longitudinal patterns of change in mothers’ perspectivesand beliefs were identified: 1) mothers’ identificationof a weight problem in their child emerges gradually, 2)mothers’ level of concern about their child overeating increases,3) mothers’ concerns about consequences of obesity intensifyand change over time, 4) mothers feel less control over theirchild’s eating and weight, 5) mothers’ efforts to manage eatingand weight become more intentional, and 6) mothers are morelikely to initiate conversations about weight as their child getsolder.CONCLUSIONS: Mothers’ concerns about children’s weightand eating habits increased, and reported weight managementstrategies became more intentional over a 2-year period. Furtherresearch should consider attending to maternal perspectives onchild weight and eating and their evolution in the developmentof family-based interventions for childhood obesity.

title: Maternal concerns about children overeating among low-income children_2016.pdf

description: Addressing overeating is essential to obesity treatment and prevention. The objectives of this study were to investigatematernal concern for child overeating, to identify associated participant characteristics and to determineif concern for child overeating is associated with maternal feeding practices. Low-income mothers (N =289) of children (mean age 70.8 months) participated in a semi-structured interview. Themes of maternal concernfor child overeating were identified and a coding scheme was reliably applied. Maternal feeding practiceswere measured by questionnaire and videotaped eating interactions. Logistic regressions were used to test theassociations of participant characteristics with the presence of each theme, and bivariate analyses were used totest the associations of the presence of each theme with feeding practices. Three themes were identified:1)mothersworry that their child does overeat, 2) mothers acknowledge that their child may overeat but indicatethat it is not problematic because they manage their child's eating behavior, and 3) mothers acknowledge thattheir child may overeat but indicate that it is not problematic because of characteristics inherent to the child.Child obesity predicted the themes; mothers of obese and overweight children are more likely to be concernedabout overeating. Themes were associated with lower levels of observed pressure to eat. Only Theme 2 wasassociated with greater restrictive feeding practices. Interventions that provide parents' practical, healthy waysto prevent child overeating may be helpful.

title: Maternal encouragement and discouragement_2016.pdf

description: Childhood obesity prevention practice guidelines recommend that parents encourage the intake ofcertain types of foods and discourage the intake of others. It is unknown if parents of children of differentweight statuses encourage or discourage their child's intake differently based on food type. The objectiveof this study was to determine the association of child weight status with maternal encouragement anddiscouragement of for four different types of food. A total of 222 mother-child dyads were video-tapedduring the standardized, sequential presentation of four foods to both participants: cupcakes (familiardessert), green beans (familiar vegetable), halva (unfamiliar dessert) and artichoke (unfamiliar vegetable).Mother's encouragements and discouragements of child intake were reliably coded for each foodtype. Poisson regression models were used to test the independent association of child weight status(normal weight, overweight and obese) with encouragement and discouragement for each food type.Mothers of an obese, vs. normal or overweight child, had lower rates of encouragement for a familiardessert (p ¼ 0.02), and a higher rates of discouragements for a familiar dessert (p ¼ 0.001), a familiarvegetable (p ¼ 0.01), and an unfamiliar vegetable (p ¼ 0.001). There were no differences in encouragementsor discouragements between mothers of an overweight, vs. obese child, for any of the 4 foodtypes. Mothers of obese children may alter their feeding behavior differentially based on food type.Future work should examine how interventions promoting maternal encouragement or discouragementof different food types impact child weight status.

title: Maternal Concern for Child Undereating_2016.pdf

description: ABSTRACTOBJECTIVE: To describe features of maternal concern for herchild undereating; examine maternal and child correlates ofmaternal concern for undereating; and determine whethermaternal concern for undereating is associated with feedingpractices.METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analysis of an observationalstudy with 286 mother–child dyads (mean child age, 71months). Maternal concern for undereating was assessed usinga semistructured interview. Mothers completed questionnairesto assess picky eating, food neophobia, and feeding practices.Feeding practices were further assessed using videotaped mealtimeobservations. Logistic regression was used to assess the associationof maternal and child characteristics with maternalconcern for undereating. Regression was used to assess the associationof maternal concern for undereating with feedingpractices, controlling for covariates.RESULTS: Over a third of mothers (36.5%) expressed concernthat their child does not eat enough. Correlates of concern forundereating included child body mass index z-score (BMIz;odds ratio [OR] ¼ 0.58; 95% confidence interval [CI],0.43–0.77) and picky eating (OR ¼ 2.41; 95% CI, 1.26–4.59).Maternal concern for undereating was associated with greaterreported pressure to eat (relative risk [RR] ¼ 1.97; 95% CI,1.55–2.50), greater observed bribery (OR ¼ 2.63; 95% CI,1.50–4.60), and higher observed pressure (OR ¼ 1.90; 95%CI, 1.08–3.36) during mealtimes.CONCLUSIONS: Mothers of children who are picky eaters andhave a lower BMIz are more likely to be concerned that theirchildren do not eat enough, and maternal concern for undereatingis associated with pressuring and bribing children to eat. Pediatriciansmight address maternal concern for undereating byadvising feeding practices that do not involve pressure and bribery,particularly among healthy weight children.

title: Pica in a Four-Year-Old Girl with Global Developmental Delay_2015.pdf

description: CASE: Emily is a 4 and half-year-old girl whose foster mother is concerned about her odd eating behaviors.Emily has been with her foster mother for 1 year after exposure to domestic violence. Emily’s habit of eatingnonfood items led to her foster mother providing “100% supervision.” Emily constantly picks up, smells, andtastes nonfood items, particularly rocks and things made of metal. She “explores everything with hertongue.” Emily scoops dirt and gravel from sidewalk crevices into her mouth. Although toileting, she catchesand licks urine in her hand and searches for stool to put in her mouth. With redirection, Emily stopped puttingfeces into her mouth, but after spending time with her biological family, this behavior recurred.Emily does not like to eat foods that are hard or require chewing. She does not choke or gag on solid foodsor liquids. She likes foods that are sweet. She refuses to eat vegetables and foods with certain textures. Emilypulls food apart with her hands before putting it in her mouth.Emily has global developmental delay, cerebral palsy, contractures in her legs, and strabismus. A medicalworkup resulted in a diagnosis of trisomy 4p and monosomy 9p. Emily works with a physical therapist andoccupational therapist; she attends preschool in a special day class. She is an alert, playful, and sociallyengaging girl who walks with an abnormal gait, speaks in short sentences, and follows simple directions.

title: Maternal beliefs about television and parental mediation in a low income United States sample_2017.pdf

description: ABSTRACTLow-income children are at greater risk for excess screen time andnegative correlates associated with screen media use. The goal of thisstudy is to increase our understanding of low-income mothers’ beliefsand practices around their children’s television (TV) use (parentalmediation). We administered semi-structured interviews to 296 lowincomemothers of children ages four–eight years old in the UnitedStates. Five themes emerged from the qualitative analysis: (1) mothersare confident in restriction of TV content; (2) time limits are not asimportant as TV content and are only necessary in extreme situations;(3) mothers make meaning of child learning from TV content; (4)mothers identified individual differences in child TV overuse; and (5)mothers’ policy on TV during mealtime depends on how they believeTV to affect child mealtime behaviors and mothers’ mealtime goals.We discuss the implications of these themes for promoting parentalmediation in low-income families.
