Uitkomstmaten
Primaire uitkomstmaten
Preference will be a main endpoint of the study. Preference will be measured in two ways:<br>
1. Two pair preference test of two vegetable products;<br>
2. Two-flavour consumption test: The children will be invited to eat as much as they want from the two target vegetable products on different days, both as LE versions (ad libitum consumption). Consumption will be used as an indicator of preference.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Rationale:
Children’s consumption of vegetables is below recommendations. Since preference is the most important predictor of children’s intake and most children dislike vegetables, new strategies are needed to increase their preferences for vegetables. Flavour-nutrient learning is one of the effective mechanisms to change preferences.
Objective:
To understand more of the learning principles of vegetable consumption in young children (2-4 years). The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of flavour nutrient learning on vegetable preference and intake.
Doel van het onderzoek
To investigate if flavour nutrient learning is an effective mechanism to increase children's vegetable intake. Is there an effect?
Onderzoeksopzet
The GRIP-study is a conditioning study at a daycare of 9 weeks with 2 durability tests to investigate the sustainability of the mechanism, one after 2 months and one after 6 months if there is an increase on intake. In 7 conditioning trials (14 days), children repeatedly consume ad random a fixed amount (125 gram) of two different vegetable products. The vegetable products differ in taste and energy content.
