背景:幼儿期是发展健康饮食习惯的关键时期。促进儿童健康的一种方法是确定影响儿童饮食和体重的早期可改变因素。考虑到饮食行为的代际传播,这项研究调查了母亲的饮食行为与儿童喂养习惯的关系,儿童身长体重(z-WFL)是否缓和了这种关系,在社区样本中。
方法:参与者为72个母子二叉。产妇的饮食行为——情绪化,外部和约束-在产后9个月进行评估,使用荷兰饮食行为问卷。限制儿童喂养,压力,以及对暴饮暴食/超重或体重不足/体重不足的担忧-使用婴儿喂养问卷进行测量,和儿童z-WFL在产后18个月进行评估。采用线性回归检验产妇进食的主效应以及产妇进食与孩子z-WFL的交互效应,关于儿童喂养的做法。
结果:母亲节制饮食与儿童压力喂养有关,与对暴饮暴食/超重的担忧相反。然而,在关注儿童体重不足/体重不足方面,发现儿童z-WFL与母亲情绪和外部进食之间存在显著的相互作用.矛盾的是,在体重更重的孩子中,更多的母亲情绪和更多的外部饮食与更多的儿童体重不足/体重不足的担忧相关。
结论:在此社区样本中,母亲更有可能报告相互矛盾的喂养方式和担忧,暗示母亲自己的饮食行为之间的复杂关系,她孩子的体重,以及她对孩子饮食和体重的看法。这可能表明需要更好的沟通和支持婴儿喂养实践。
背景:数据是在加州大学进行的两项资助(MAMAS资助ID:HL097973-01;SEED资助ID:HL116511-02)的一部分,旧金山(UCSF)。所有受试者在参与研究之前都同意纳入。这项研究是根据《赫尔辛基宣言》进行的,并且该方案得到了UCSF机构审查委员会的批准.
BACKGROUND: Early childhood is a pivotal period for the development of healthy eating practices. One way to promote child health is to identify early modifiable factors that affect child eating and weight. Given the intergenerational transmission of eating behaviors, this study examined how mothers\' eating behaviors were associated with child feeding practices, and whether child weight-for-length (z-WFL) moderated this relation, in a community sample.
METHODS: Participants were 72 mother-child dyads. Maternal eating behaviors-emotional, external and restrained-were assessed 9-months postpartum, using the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire. Child feeding-restrictive, pressure, and concern about overeating/overweight or undereating/underweight-was measured using the Infant Feeding Questionnaire, and child z-WFL were assessed 18-months postpartum. Linear regressions were used to test the main effect of maternal eating and the interaction effect of maternal eating and child z-WFL, on child feeding practices.
RESULTS: Maternal restrained eating was associated with child pressure feeding, and contrarily with concerns about overeating/overweight. However, a significant interaction between child z-WFL and both maternal emotional and external eating were found with regard to concern about child undereating/underweight. Paradoxically, among children who weighed more, greater maternal emotional and greater external eating were associated with greater concern about child undereating/underweight.
CONCLUSIONS: In this community sample, mothers were more likely to report contradictory feeding practices and concerns, suggesting complicated relations among a mother\'s own eating behavior, her child\'s weight, and her perceptions of child eating and weight. This may indicate a need for better communication and support of infant feeding practices.
BACKGROUND: Data was collected as part of two grants (MAMAS Grant ID: HL097973-01; SEED Grant ID: HL116511-02) conducted at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). All subjects gave their informed consent for inclusion before they participated in the study. The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, and the protocol was approved by institutional review board at UCSF.
