Project description
 

This project aims to study the influence of parental control on children's eating behavior and weight status. Four observational labo studies will be conducted. In a second part, the effects of a manipulation will be studied in which it is examined whether parental instructions on authoritative parenting lead to better self-controlling behavior in children.
