Parental modelling and prompting effects on acceptance of a novel fruit in 2–4-year-old children are dependent on children's food responsiveness
Open accessAbstract
Few children consume the recommended portions of fruit or vegetables. This study examined the effects of parental physical prompting and parental modelling in children's acceptance of a novel fruit (NF) and examined the role of children's food-approach and food-avoidance traits on NF engagement and consumption. A total of 120 caregiver-child dyads (fifty-four girls, sixty-six boys) participated in this study. Dyads were allocated to one of the following three conditions: physical prompting but no modelling, physical prompting and modelling or a modelling only control condition. Dyads ate a standardised meal containing a portion of a fruit new to the child. Parents completed measures of children's food approach and avoidance. Willingness to try the NF was observed, and the amount of the NF consumed was measured. Physical prompting but no modelling resulted in greater physical refusal of the NF. There were main effects of enjoyment of food and food fussiness on acceptance. Food responsiveness interacted with condition such that children who were more food responsive had greater NF acceptance in the prompting and modelling conditions in comparison with the modelling only condition. In contrast, children with low food responsiveness had greater acceptance in the modelling control condition than in the prompting but no modelling condition. Physical prompting in the absence of modelling is likely to be detrimental to NF acceptance. Parental use of physical prompting strategies, in combination with modelling of NF intake, may facilitate acceptance of NF, but only in food-responsive children. Modelling consumption best promotes acceptance in children with low food responsiveness.

Approaches used to target food neophobia (sensory education, exposure, modelling, prompting) have all shown some effectiveness in improving children's willingness to try new foods.
“These approaches have all shown some effectiveness in improving children's willingness to try new foods.”

The Discussion (page unavailable) reports that parental modelling promoted acceptance of a novel fruit, while prompting helped only some children when combined with modelling; prompting without modelling could be detrimental. The introductory passage also describes exposure as facilitating acceptance, but the cited paper does not establish the effectiveness of sensory education. It therefore does not support the claim that all four approaches have shown effectiveness. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe effectiveness of interventions targeting food neophobia is often limited by individual differences in food approach and avoidance behaviours and by difficulties in encouraging children to experience and tolerate sensory properties of new foods.
“Nevertheless, the effectiveness of these interventions is often limited by individual differences in food approach and avoidance behaviours and by difficulties in encouraging children to experience and tolerate sensory properties of new foods (Blissett et al., 2016; Nederkoorn et al., 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
