“…In a pilot study, the phrasing of the original DEBQ was slightly adapted, without modifying the content, to enhance the children's comprehension. The different subscales revealed a stable factor structure, satisfying internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha=0.77-0.91) and a good test-retest reliability (r= 0.87-0.90) (Braet et al, 2008;Braet et al, 2007).…”

“…However, external cues such as the sight of appetizing foods can also evoke a desire to eat, even in the absence of hunger. This external food sensitivity (EFS) varies considerably across individuals, and high EFS has been associated with increased risk for obesity when exposed to a food-rich environment (Braet and Van Strien, 1997;Hörchner et al, 2002;Braet et al, 2007;Burton et al, 2007;Elfhag et al, 2007Elfhag et al, , 2008. Given recent concerns that advertisements and packaging can initiate and maintain increased food intake, identifying the neurobiological basis of EFS is crucial for understanding obesity.…”

Eating is not only triggered by hunger but also by the sight of foods. Viewing appetizing foods alone can induce food craving and eating, although there is considerable variation in this "external food sensitivity" (EFS). Because increased EFS is associated with overeating, identifying its neural correlates is important for understanding the current epidemic of obesity. Animal research has identified the ventral striatum, amygdala, hypothalamus, medial prefrontal and premotor cortices as key interacting structures for feeding. However, it is unclear whether a similar network exists in humans and how it is affected by EFS. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we showed that viewing appetizing compared with bland foods produced changes in connectivity among the human ventral striatum, amygdala, anterior cingulate and premotor cortex that were strongly correlated with EFS. Differences in the dynamic interactions within the human appetitive network in response to pictures of appetizing foods may determine an individual's risk of obesity.

“…Parents who have overweight children in the family or perceive their children are at risk of being overweight, usually utilize this practice more. (Fran cis, Hofer and Birch 2001), Keller, Pietrobelli, Johnson and Faith 2006 ), (Fisher and Birch1999) and (Braet, Soetens, Moens, Goossens and Vlierberghe 2007). It seems parents use greater restriction for their overweight girls in compare with the overweight boys (Wardle, Sanderson, Guthrie, Rapoport and Plomin 2002).…”

This study explores associations between parental feeding practices and childrens appetitive traits, putting to test the hypotheses that a) parental “restriction” is associated with having a child with stronger food approach tendencies (food enjoyment (FE) and food over responsiveness (FR)), and b) parental pressure to eat is associated with having a child with food avoidance tendencies (satiety responsiveness (SR),slowness in eating (SE) and food fussiness(FF)).The participants from 55 nationalities, targeting 1083 parents of 5-to 11-year-old children from 7 private schools in Dubai, UAE, who completed self-reported questionnaires over the 2011-2012 school year. The questionnaire has been a tailored amalgamation of CEBQ and CFQ in order to measure the children’s appetitive traits and parental feeding practices, respectively. The findings of this quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional analysis confirmed the hypotheses in that “parental restriction” was positively associated with child food responsiveness (r, 0.183), and food enjoyment (r, 0.102). On the other hand, parental pressure to eat was positively associated with child satiety responsiveness (r,0.265), slowness (r, 0.253), and fussiness (r, 0.174) and negatively with food enjoyment (r, -0.214) and food responsiveness (r, - 0.142). To conclude, as far as the figures depict, the parents controlling their children’s food intake would seemingly a reverse impact on their eating behaviour in the short term.
