The current study examined parental perception of offspring body shape, differential reporting of offspring eating behaviors by mothers and fathers, and gender-specific patterns of offspring feeding habits.
Parents of a community sample of 36-month-old children (N = 93) completed measures regarding their offspring's feeding patterns and body shape.
Results revealed noteworthy correlates (e.g., concerns about their child's appetite) of parental perception of offspring weight status. They further suggested that mothers and fathers often differed in their accounts of their child's eating habits, and that parents report certain eating behaviors differently depending on the gender of their child.
Clinical and theoretical implications are discussed.
本研究考察了父母对子女体型的看法、母亲和父亲对子女饮食行为的不同报告,以及子女饮食习惯的性别特异性模式。
对一个社区样本中36个月大儿童的父母(N = 93)进行了关于其子女喂养模式和体型的测量。
结果揭示了父母对子女体重状况看法的显著相关因素(例如,对孩子食欲的担忧)。结果还进一步表明,母亲和父亲对孩子饮食习惯的描述往往存在差异,而且父母根据孩子的性别对某些饮食行为的报告也有所不同。
讨论了临床和理论意义。
