Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to test the effects of large food portions on childrens eating Experiment 1 will test the effect of portion size on childrens consumption of sweetened beverages we hypothesize that serving large beverage portions will increase the amount of energy children consume from this food Experiment 2 will test the effects of portion size on childrens intake of fruits and vegetables FV affect intake whether such effects are moderated by childrens FV preferences and we hypothesize that serving large fruit and vegetable portions will produce increases in childrens intake of these foods particularly for children who like fruit and vegetables Experiment 3 will evaluate how food energy density affects childrens response to large portions we hypothesize that large portions will have the greatest influence on childrens energy consumption when foods are energy dense Experiment 4 will begin to address perceptual mechanisms by which large portions affect childrens eating
Detailed Description:
The emerging epidemic of overweight among underscores the need to identify contributing environmental factors Marketplace trends for excessive and growing portion sizes in and outside the home have reinforced concerns that large portions may directly contribute by promoting excessive intake To date however systematic investigation of portion size effects on childrens eating has been extremely limited Two laboratory studies have reported that serving large portions of macaroni and cheese to young children promoted energy consumption at meals Whether portion size effects would be seen with other foods of varying energy content and preference is unknown Of particular public health interest is whether serving large portions may affect childrens intake of sweetened beverages fruits and vegetables and energy dense foods This study will address these questions using an experimental approach to test the effects of portion size on childrens eating
