Abstract: | Although many children with developmental disabilities have food selectivity, few studies have evaluated in-home parent training
to address this feeding problem. In the present case, a parent learned to implement a multicomponent feeding intervention
with her child through home-based training provided by a consultant. Using a changing criterion evaluation design, the child’s
consumption of previously rejected foods increased during the two-phase intervention that combined antecedent and positive
reinforcement procedures. The benefits of “natural context” parent training for the treatment of child-feeding problems are
discussed. |
