Development of an Early Intervention for the Prevention of Childhood Obesity
You are invited to participate in a research study to understand more about childhood
obesity and how to prevent it. We hope to learn how families influence each others eating
habits.
This study aims to understand more about childhood obesity and how to prevent it. Two
different methods of prevention will be tested and participants will be allocated at random
to one of these methods. The investigators hope to learn how families influence each others
eating habits.
Participants in this study will attend a series of five classes, once a week for five weeks,
on the topic of child feeding. The aim of the classes is to learn how to feed your child so
as to prevent future eating and weight problems. The research component includes filling out
some surveys before classes begin and at the end of the last class. Classes are small and
interactive so that parents have a chance to voice concerns and get feedback.
