Intergenerational Effects of the Unhealthy = Taste Intuition on Bmi: an Exploration of Food Practices and Outcomes
Four studies demonstrate the intergenerational effects of parents’ beliefs in the Unhealthy = Tasty Intuition (UTI) on their children’s BMI. We argue that parents’ UTI positively influences their children’s BMI because extrinsic rewards are used to encourage healthy eating, which ironically reduces their children’s healthy food consumption.
