To investigate association between parental locus of control (belief of individuals about what or who has control of the events of their lives) and bottle feeding habits among children from 3 to 5 years of age.
Parental locus of control validated in Brazil, and semi-structured questionnaire to obtain sociodemographic, health, and oral habit behaviors was applied to mothers of 992 preschool children. Outcome variable "use of feeding bottle" was studied according to the time of its use (≤36 months and >36 months). Simple logistic regression models were adjusted and raw odds ratios were estimated for variables of distal blocks, which contemplated parental locus of control, socioeconomic characteristics of family, and maternal habits. In the intermediate block, the variables for conditions of the child's birth and place of health care attendance during the prenatal period and early childhood were included. In the proximal block, the time of breastfeeding and pacifier use were reported. Variables were analyzed from the distal to the proximal block, and the individual analyses that presented p≤0.20 remained in each model; included in the subsequent block were the variables with p≤0.10, because this was a study of prevention.
Longer time of feeding bottle use was associated with the internal parental locus of control, mothers older than 31 years of age, white race, premature children, who used pacifiers and are treated in the private health system.
Children who maintained the habit of feeding bottle use for a longer time were those whose mother presented an internal locus of control.
调查父母控制源（个体对生活中事件的控制感或控制者的信念）与 3 至 5 岁儿童奶瓶喂养习惯之间的关联。
在巴西对父母控制源进行验证，并采用半结构式问卷获取社会人口学、健康和口腔习惯行为方面的信息，对 992 名学龄前儿童的母亲进行调查。根据奶瓶使用时间（≤36 个月和＞36 个月），将“使用奶瓶”这一结果变量进行研究。对远端块中的变量进行简单逻辑回归模型调整，并估计原始优势比，远端块中包含父母控制源、家庭社会经济特征和母亲习惯等变量。在中间块中，纳入了儿童出生状况和产前及幼儿期医疗保健场所变量。在近端块中，报告了母乳喂养和使用安抚奶嘴的时间。从远端到近端块分析变量，在每个模型中保留分析 p 值≤0.20 的个体分析；将 p 值≤0.10 的变量纳入后续块，因为这是一项预防研究。
更长时间使用奶瓶与父母的内控型控制源、年龄大于 31 岁、白种人、早产儿、使用安抚奶嘴和在私立医疗保健系统中接受治疗的母亲有关。
习惯更长时间使用奶瓶的儿童，其母亲表现出内控型控制源。
