This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Obesity in preschool children between the ages of 2 and 5 years has doubled from 5% to 10% between 1977 and 2000. The objective of this study is to develop a behavioral intervention to modify the diet and physical activity patterns of obese preschool children through improved parenting around diet and activity.
The specific aim i s to develop, refine, and manualize a combined clinic and home based behavioral intervention (LAUNCH) to improve the eating and activity behaviors and decrease the percent overweight of obese preschool children ages 2 to 5 years. The intervention will be both clinic and home based, with home visitation by coaches to assist parents in solidifying and implementing in the home the skills taught in the clinic. The central hypothesis is that a behavioral parenting intervention can be developed that effectively modifies the eating and physical activity of obese preschool children and decreases their percent overweight. The overall goal of LAUNCH is to stabilize or slow the rate of children's weight gain to allow for a gradual decline in percent overweight as the children grow in height. This goal will be achieved through establishing quality nutrient intake, avoiding excess caloric intake, and increasing physical activity via parent training on child behavior management techniques and stimulus control.
