Although cross-cultural research between France and the United States has contributed to our understanding of adult eating habits, no research to date has considered differences in the way that French and American parents feed their children. American mothers (n=59) and fathers (n=38) and French mothers (n=72) and fathers (n=50) provided information about the feeding practices that they use with their children. U.S. parents reported higher levels of non-nutritive feeding practices and child control over feeding, whereas French parents reported greater monitoring and restriction of their child's food intake for weight reasons. Feeding practices were linked to child Body Mass Index (BMI) in both socio-cultural contexts.
尽管法国和美国之间的跨文化研究有助于我们理解成年人的饮食习惯,但迄今为止,尚无研究考虑法国和美国父母在喂养孩子方式上的差异。美国母亲(n = 59)、父亲(n = 38)以及法国母亲(n = 72)、父亲(n = 50)提供了他们与孩子一起使用的喂养方式的相关信息。美国父母报告的非营养性喂养行为水平和孩子对喂养的控制程度更高,而法国父母报告称,出于体重原因,他们对孩子食物摄入量的监测和限制更多。在两种社会文化背景下,喂养方式都与儿童体重指数(BMI)相关。
