“…Indeed research on ASR-related behaviors, characteristics, traits and processes has expanded considerably in recent years and there is now a growing set of possibilities for inclusion in research about ASR phenotypes in childhood including: temperament (such as impulsivity and effortful control) ( 90 ), Executive function (such as inhibitory control), genetic susceptibility, reward sensitivity, hedonic responses to food, cognitive function ( 91 ), cognitive control and negative affect ( 92 ), state and/or trait food cue reactivity ( 93 ), brain reward sensitivity to food cues ( 94 ), dietary measures, such as dietary fat or carbohydrates ( 95 , 96 ), fructose consumption ( 97 ), intake of processed food ( 98 ), sensory sensitivity ( 99 ), neuroimaging functional connectivity ( 100 ), metabolomics and analysis of the gut microbiome ( 101 , 102 ), measures of the social facilitation of eating ( 103 ), susceptibility to modeling ( 104 ), effects of portion size cues ( 105 ) and attachment security ( 106 ), behavioral and neural measures of appetitive traits such as through neuroimaging measures ( 107 , 108 ). A helpful broadening of work on ASR phenotypes is also suggested by attention to endophenotypes where genetic predisposition and neural substrates as well as behavioral measures are included ( 107 , 109 – 112 ).…”

Conceptualizing and Measuring Appetite Self-Regulation Phenotypes and Trajectories in Childhood: A Review of Person-Centered Strategies

2021

This review uses person-centered research and data analysis strategies to discuss the conceptualization and measurement of appetite self-regulation (ASR) phenotypes and trajectories in childhood (from infancy to about ages 6 or 7 years). Research that is person-centered provides strategies that increase the possibilities for investigating ASR phenotypes. We first examine the utility of examining underlying phenotypes using latent profile/class analysis drawing on cross-sectional data. The use of trajectory analysis to investigate developmental change is then discussed, with attention to phenotypes using trajectories of individual behaviors as well as phenotypes based on multi-trajectory modeling. Data analysis strategies and measurement approaches from recent examples of these person-centered approaches to the conceptualization and investigation of appetite self-regulation and its development in childhood are examined. Where relevant, examples from older children as well as developmental, clinical and educational psychology are drawn on to discuss when and how person-centered approaches can be used. We argue that there is scope to incorporate recent advances in biological and psychoneurological knowledge about appetite self-regulation as well as fundamental processes in the development of general self-regulation to enhance the examination of phenotypes and their trajectories across childhood (and beyond). The discussion and conclusion suggest directions for future research and highlight the potential of person-centered approaches to progress knowledge about the development of appetite self-regulation in childhood.
