Abstract

Although many children with developmental disabilities have food selectivity, few studies have evaluated in-home parent training to address this feeding problem. In the present case, a parent learned to implement a multicomponent feeding intervention with her child through home-based training provided by a consultant. Using a changing criterion evaluation design, the child’s consumption of previously rejected foods increased during the two-phase intervention that combined antecedent and positive reinforcement procedures. The benefits of “natural context” parent training for the treatment of child-feeding problems are discussed.
