Latest paper to come from the APPETItE project, in which we show that distraction works really well to reduce eating in the absence of hunger. Thanks to all the team for all the work involved, especially @katieedders.bsky.social who led on this one 🤩 kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

Really looking forward to the next few days at #ISBNPA2025 with colleagues from @astonpsychology.bsky.social. It’s always a great, fun, active, healthy and productive conference. Megan and I compensated for this by spending yesterday investigating the local vineyards 😀

I’m delighted to share our animation of recommendations for parents of children with avid appetites, who repeatedly ask for snacks. This is one of the outputs from our ESRC funded APPETItE study. All publications so far can also be found on the website 😊 www.appetite-research.com/animation-fo...

Interested in children’s avid eating? As the APPETItE study comes to an end, we’ve uploaded some talks about the project, what we did, why we did it and what we found (+ links to our publications).

Finally @profblissett.bsky.social wrapped up a great day of learning about the #appetitestudy. Managing avid eating is important to parents as it is a major area of conflict for them.

Sharing our latest paper in which we show that boredom elicits children’s emotional eating. Children’s temperament (negative affect) and parent feeding practices (use of food to regulate emotion) interact to exacerbate this tendency. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
