这项重复暴露、随机、交叉准实验研究的目的是确定 (a) 提供甜点的时间和 (b) 主菜份量对 2-5 岁儿童 (n=23) 在托儿所环境中午餐能量摄入的个体和综合影响。为期 12 周，每周两次为儿童提供两份学习午餐（鱼或意大利面，各配有甜点），甜点的时间（与主菜一起或在主菜之后供应）和主菜的份量（参考份量或大 50% 的份量）有所不同。方差分析显示，饭后吃甜点会导致主菜和甜点的能量摄入量更高，因此膳食的总摄入量更高。主菜的份量不影响膳食的总能量摄入。结果表明，无论主菜的份量大小，提供甜点的时间都会影响儿童的能量摄入。具体来说，无论主菜份量大小如何，随餐提供甜点都会减少总能量摄入。这表明在主菜中提供甜点可能是减少学龄前儿童膳食总能量摄入的有效策略。
The purpose of this repeated exposure, randomized, cross-over quasi-experimental study was to determine the individual and combined impact of (a) the timing of serving dessert and (b) portion size of main course in 2–5year old children (n=23) on energy intake at lunch in a childcare setting. Children were served two study lunches (fish or pasta, each with dessert) twice a week for 12weeks that differed in the timing of dessert (served with or after the main course) and portion size of the main course (reference portion or 50% larger portion). Analyses of variance revealed that serving dessert after the meal resulted in higher energy intakes from both the main course and from dessert, and therefore greater total intake at the meal. Portion size of the main course did not influence total energy intake at the meal. Results indicate that the timing of serving dessert affects children’s energy intake regardless of the portion size of the main course. Specifically, serving dessert with the meal reduces total energy intake regardless of the main course portion size. This suggests that offering dessert with the main course may be an effective strategy for decreasing total energy intake at meals in preschool-aged children.
