The impact of feeding styles on unhealthy dietary intakes and weight-for-length z-scores: Investigating sweet beverages and snack food consumption during early childhood in a diverse sample
Background
Parental feeding styles shape children's dietary choices and weight.
Objectives
To examine the relationships between parental feeding styles, sweet beverages and snack foods intakes, and weight-for-length z-scores (WFLz) in young children.
Methods
This cross-sectional analysis included 96 mother-child dyads (mean child age = 14.9 months, SD = 2.6). Mothers completed the Infant Feeding Styles Questionnaire, assessing five styles: responsive, restrictive, pressuring, indulgent, and laissez-faire. Three 24-h dietary recalls were analyzed using the Nutrition Data System for Research. Dietary components were categorized as sweet beverages (e.g., sugar-sweetened beverages, 100 % juice) and snack foods (e.g., cookies, chips). Child height and weight were measured. Multivariable linear regressions examined associations between feeding styles, unhealthy dietary intake, and child WFLz, adjusting for covariates.
Results
Pressuring feeding style was positively associated with mean frequency (β = 0.39, p < 0.001), mean energy (β = 0.34, p = 0.003), and % energy (β = 0.38, p < 0.001) from sweet beverages, but negatively associated with mean frequency (β = -0.24, p = 0.034) and % energy (β = −0.22, p = 0.044) from snack foods. Restrictive feeding style was negatively associated with mean energy (β = −0.24, p = 0.036) and % energy (β = −0.23, p = 0.05) from snack foods. Higher mean frequency (β = 0.38, p = 0.002), mean energy (β = 0.37, p = 0.003), and % energy from sweet beverages (β = 0.35, p = 0.004) were associated with higher child WFLz. The effect of sweet beverages on child WFLz was not mediated by pressuring feeding style.
Conclusions
The contrasting associations of pressuring feeding with sweet beverage and snack consumption highlight the need for nuanced approaches in addressing parental feeding practices to mitigate obesity risk in early childhood.
期刊介绍:
Appetite is an international research journal specializing in cultural, social, psychological, sensory and physiological influences on the selection and intake of foods and drinks. It covers normal and disordered eating and drinking and welcomes studies of both human and non-human animal behaviour toward food. Appetite publishes research reports, reviews and commentaries. Thematic special issues appear regularly. From time to time the journal carries abstracts from professional meetings. Submissions to Appetite are expected to be based primarily on observations directly related to the selection and intake of foods and drinks; papers that are primarily focused on topics such as nutrition or obesity will not be considered unless they specifically make a novel scientific contribution to the understanding of appetite in line with the journal's aims and scope.
