Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The objective of the current study is two-fold: 1) to evaluate the extent to which mothers and other caregivers affect mothers' parenting surrounding feeding their infant, beginning when the infant is first introduced to solid foods; and 2) to examine whether an intervention aimed at providing both mothers and and other important caregivers with hands-on training regarding healthy foods and responsive and sensitive feeding behaviors improves mothers' and other caregivers' responsive and sensitive behaviors and infants' weight trajectories over time. The researchers will collect both self-report data on diet, child temperament, mothers and caregiver mental health, stress and support. Observational assessments will be obtained to code co-caregiver behavior and caregiver responsiveness during feeding.
