Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The participant population includes female caregivers (mothers) of typically developing infants aged 18 to 24 months. All participants are healthy volunteers.
The main research questions this study aims to answer are:
Does online occupational therapy-based parent training reduce feeding problems in infants (e.g., food refusal, resistance, sensory-based rejection)? Does the training improve maternal attitudes related to feeding and reduce parenting-related stress? Comparison group: Researchers will compare the outcomes of mothers who receive the online training (intervention group) with those who receive no intervention (control group) to determine the effectiveness of the program.
Participants will be asked to:
Complete baseline assessment forms prior to randomization
If in the intervention group:
Attend a 4-week online group training program (one session per week) via a secure Zoom® platform Participate in follow-up assessments at 6 months and 12 months post-training
All participants (in both groups) will:
Complete standardized assessment tools at three time points (baseline, 6-month follow-up, 12-month follow-up), including:

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Parent Training Group
Participants in this group will receive a 4-week online occupational therapy-based parent training via secure Zoom sessions. The training focuses on feeding skills development, sensory strategies, parenting attitudes, and stress management. Participants will complete assessments at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months using standardized tools to evaluate infant feeding behavior, parental attitudes, and parenting stress
Online occupational therapy group training
The intervention is a 4-week online parent training program based on occupational therapy principles, delivered via secure Zoom sessions once per week. Each session lasts approximately 60-75 minutes and focuses on topics such as feeding skill development, sensory-based feeding difficulties, responsive parenting strategies, and stress management techniques. The training includes interactive discussions and practical suggestions for daily feeding routines. Supporting materials, such as PDF slides and short demonstration videos, are shared with participants after each session. Attendance in at least three sessions is required to remain in the study.
Non-intervention Group
Participants in this group will not receive any intervention during the study period. They will complete the same assessments as the intervention group at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months to monitor changes in infant feeding behavior, parental attitudes, and parenting stress.
No interventions assigned to this group
