ScienceDaily for October 27, 2010 reported on obesity and pre-schoolers.
Spence and his team recruited 1730 Canadian children into the study -- an equal mix of boys and girls, and four- and five-year-olds -- via immunization clinics from 2005 to 2007 when they came for their pre-school vaccinations. Kids were classified according to body weight status and parents asked to complete the UK-developed Children's Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (CEBQ), which has been used in European studies to establish the relationship between food behaviours and body weight in children.
