Abstract

Supplemental Digital Content is Available in the Text. We evaluated the effects of a multicomponent intervention to address food selectivity issues of 3 preschoolers with developmental disabilities. The intervention comprised strategies evidencing ecological validity in both research and practice. All sessions took place during typical mealtimes in children's classroom or lunchroom, with peers present, and a school-based staff member serving as the instructor. A multiple probe design across behaviors (touch, smell, taste, and eat), with a nested changing criterion design in the final tier, was used to evaluate changes in eating behaviors. Exploratory behaviors related to eating increased for all children; however, the designed intervention did not result in increased consumption of nonpreferred foods. Modifications resulted in one child demonstrating consistent increases in the consumption of nonpreferred foods, but these modifications did not result in increased consumption for other children. Challenges and future directions in treating food selectivity using resources typically available during mealtimes in preschool settings are discussed.
在学龄前儿童进餐时间解决发育障碍儿童食物选择的挑战和成功
补充数字内容可在文本中获得。我们评估了多成分干预对3名发育障碍学龄前儿童食物选择问题的影响。干预措施包括在研究和实践中证明生态有效性的策略。所有的课程都在孩子们的教室或午餐室的正常用餐时间进行,同学们在场,学校的工作人员担任讲师。采用跨行为(触觉、嗅觉、味觉和饮食)的多重探针设计,在最后一层采用嵌套的变化准则设计,用于评估饮食行为的变化。与饮食相关的探索性行为在所有儿童中都有所增加;然而,设计的干预并没有导致不喜欢的食物的消费增加。修改后的结果是,有一个孩子对不喜欢的食物的摄入量持续增加,但这些修改并没有导致其他孩子的摄入量增加。挑战和未来的方向在处理食物选择性利用资源通常可在进餐时间在学前设置进行了讨论。

期刊介绍: Infants & Young Children is an interdisciplinary journal focusing on vulnerable children from birth to five years of age and their families. Of special interest are articles involving innovative interventions, summaries of important research developments and their implications for practice, updates for high priority topic areas, balanced presentations of controversial issues, and articles that address issues involving policy, professional training, new conceptual models, and related matters. Although data are often presented primarily to illustrate points, some types of data-based articles may be appropriate.
