Study Summary

This trial will explore how mother-infant interactions affect the child's nutrition, eating habits, and body weight.

Who is the study for?
This study is for mothers and their infants who are already part of an observational study (NCT06039878). It aims to understand how emotions, bonding, and feeding behaviors between mother and baby relate to the child's eating habits and weight.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is exploring the 'Relative Reinforcing Value of Food' which means it looks at how rewarding food is in the context of a mother-infant relationship. The goal is to see how this affects maternal feeding practices, infant eating patterns, diet quality, and body weight.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves behavioral assessments rather than medical treatments or drugs, there are no direct side effects like those associated with medications. However, participation may involve time commitment or stress from being observed.
