| Summary |
The research examined parental socialisation of preschool children's food preferences. The findings indicated that parents' beliefs, child characteristics and parents' feeding behaviours contribute to children's food preferences. In particular, parents' self-efficacy beliefs and beliefs about why children reject foods on the one hand, and children's food neophobia on the other hand appear to influence children's everyday food preferences |
