ABSTRACT

In a randomized controlled trial with 25 Colombian rural low-SES mothers and their children (aged 1–3 years), the effectiveness of the Video-feedback Intervention to promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) in enhancing maternal sensitivity and food habits was tested pre-intervention, post-intervention, and at a 6-month follow-up. The study further verified whether maternal sensitivity represented a mechanism of change for food habits. Mixed models indicated that the VIPP-SD did promote higher maternal sensitivity and better food habits. Moreover, increased maternal sensitivity following the VIPP-SD predicted improved maternal food habits, both post-intervention and at the follow-up. The findings suggest that interventions aimed at preventing early inadequate parental food habits in low-SES communities should promote sensitive parenting during daily mother–child interactions, in addition to offering nutritional advice.

摘要

在一项对 25 名哥伦比亚农村低 SES 母亲及其子女（1-3 岁）进行的随机对照试验中，视频反馈干预促进积极养育和敏感管教 (VIPP-SD) 在提高母亲敏感性和食物方面的有效性在干预前、干预后和 6 个月的随访中对习惯进行了测试。该研究进一步验证了母亲的敏感性是否代表了饮食习惯的变化机制。混合模型表明 VIPP-SD 确实促进了更高的母体敏感性和更好的饮食习惯。此外，在 VIPP-SD 后增加的母亲敏感性预测了母亲在干预后和随访时的饮食习惯的改善。
