Food Form & Energy Intake

NCT05258097 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 78

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study primarily aims to examine how food presented in various forms (i.e., solid, semi-solid, and liquid) affects children's ability to self-regulate energy intake at a subsequent meal. Additionally, this study aims to examine how several child-level individual differences are associated with differences in various aspects of children's appetite self-regulation. The investigators will recruit 78 children between the ages of 4.5-6 years in order to test the primary hypothesis that energy presented in a liquid form will elicit poorer self-regulation than solid and semi-solid food forms.
