Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study used a single subject design to test the effectiveness of the Just Right Challenge Food Club for decreasing food selectivity and increasing mealtime quality for children with developmental disabilities. Baseline data was collected during the time that participants spent on the wait list for treatment. Treatment data was collected each week during treatment session. This protocol produced a significant change in both the number of foods the children in the study ate as well as the parents perception of mealtime quality.
