DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Today's environment provides many hedonic stimuli that promote consumption of unhealthy energy-dense snack foods. It is widely recognized that a systems approach is required to deal with this complex problem. However, individuals, particularly children, also need to develop the personal capacity to deal with tempting stimuli and inhibit responses to these energy-dense foods. Therefore in this proposal, we will focus on enhancing higher level executive functions, particularly inhibitory control, which is needed to counterbalance impulsive behavior and is crucial for growth and development. We have chosen to focus on developing inhibitory control in preschool-age children because executive functioning/inhibitory control and eating habits are developing at this time. Among preschool-age children, inhibitory control is fostered through social play-based curriculums and has been found to be related to greater school readiness and academic skills. Therefore, the goal of this proposal is to adapt a play-based curriculum, the Tools of the Mind program, to promote greater inhibitory control skills in preschool children and decrease consumption of energy-dense snack foods. In Phase I, we will develop and pilot a Child Inhibitory Control Play-based Program (CHIC Play) among children age 4- to 6-years old. We will adapt the learning tools used in the Tools of the Mind curriculum and employ naturalistic play scenarios, drawings (visual support), and games to teach children to inhibit their responses to energy-dense snack foods. Once developed, we will test the efficacy of CHIC Play in the preschool setting. Parent groups will also be conducted to support the adoption of these skills at home. The primary outcome of interest is caloric intake and age- and gender-adjusted percent of daily caloric intake as measured by the Eating in the Absence of Hunger free access procedure and a snack time procedure. Inhibitory control skills will also be measured using executive functioning tasks. Feasibility and acceptability of this program will be determined from parent, child, and teacher surveys. The purpose of this study is to develop a new innovative method of decreasing energy-dense snack food consumption by promoting the development of inhibitory control or impulse control. If successful, this program has the potential to play a role in the treatment and prevention of childhood obesity.

描述（由申请人提供）：当今的环境提供了许多享乐刺激，可促进不健康的能量浓密零食食品的消费。人们普遍认识到，需要采用系统方法来解决这一复杂问题。但是，个人，尤其是儿童，也需要发展个人能力来应对诱人的刺激并抑制对这些能量浓缩食物的反应。因此，在该提案中，我们将专注于增强更高级别的执行功能，尤其是抑制性控制，这是平衡冲动行为所需的，对于增长和发展至关重要。我们选择专注于在学龄前儿童中发展抑制性控制，因为目前正在发展执行功能/抑制性控制和饮食习惯。在学龄前儿童中，抑制性控制是通过基于社会游戏的课程来促进的，并且被发现与更高的学校准备和学术技能有关。因此，该提案的目的是调整基于游戏的课程，即思维计划的工具，以促进学龄前儿童中更大的抑制控制技能，并减少能量浓密的零食食品的消费。在第一阶段，我们将在4至6岁的儿童中开发和驾驶基于儿童抑制性对照游戏的计划（CHIC PLAY）。我们将调整思维课程工具中使用的学习工具，并采用自然主义的游戏场景，绘画（视觉支持）和游戏来教孩子们抑制他们对能量浓密零食食品的反应。一旦开发，我们将在学龄前环境中测试别致游戏的功效。还将进行母公司团体以支持在家中采用这些技能。感兴趣的主要结果是热量摄入量以及年龄和性别调整的每日热量摄入量百分比，这是在没有饥饿的无饥饿手术程序和零食时间程序的情况下通过进食来衡量的。抑制控制技能也将使用执行功能任务来衡量。该计划的可行性和可接受性将由父母，孩子和教师调查确定。这项研究的目的是开发一种新的创新方法，通过促进抑制性控制或脉冲控制的发展来减少能量浓密的零食食物。如果成功的话，该计划有可能在儿童肥胖症的治疗和预防中发挥作用。
