Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of parent education on feeding problems in children with autism spectrum disorder. Method : Articles published between 2000 and May 2019 were identified through a database search of Cochrane Library, Embase, Ovid-Medline, and PubMed as well as through additional manual searches. A total of six articles were selected and qualitatively analyzed according to the level of evidence of the study and arranged according to PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). Results : Six articles were used for the data analysis; four articles were at evidence level 1 and two articles were at evidence level 3. Behavioral therapy was the most common interventional approach to parent education, and all of the articles based on behavioral therapy had evidence level 1. Conclusion : This study examines the various ways of parenting to help families with autism spectrum children with feeding problems in order to find directions for parent education that can be applied in clinical practice.

Objective : This study was conducted to verify the validity of the content of the Behavioral Pediatric Feeding Assessment Scale (BPFAS) following its translation into Korean, to allow the instrument to be used in Korea. Methods : The BPFAS was translated by the researcher and a pediatric occupational therapist with 12 years' experience. To validate the contents of the translated instrument, it was reviewed by three professors in the Department of Occupational Therapy who have taught how to evaluate instruments or conducted related research. The BPFAS was then translated back into English by a professional translator whose native language is English but who is fluent in Korean. The contents of the instrument were verified by using it to survey five parents with normally developed children aged between 9 and 72 months. The BPFAS instrument was successfully revised for use in Korea. Results : The content validity index (CVI) of the Korean version of the evaluation of children's eating behavior was an average of 0.9 points in the fluency area, an average of 0.8 points in the semantic area, and an average of 1 points in the technology area, and the overall average was 0.8 points or more. The average of the content understanding score was 3 points or more. Conclusion : It was confirmed that the Korean version of the BPFAS is an evaluation tool with high content validity and can be usefully used to gather data in clinical trials and research in Korea.

Objective: This study was conducted to comprehensively analyze domestic and international literature on the oral sensorimotor intervention approaches and evaluation/non-instrumental assessment methods for children with cerebral palsy with feeding disorders. Methods: One hundred and seventy-six papers published from January 2009 to December 2018 were screened. Forty-seven papers were selected based on the abstract and title, and five papers were selected through a secondary search. Results: The PEDro scale of the selected papers was high with an average of 7 points, and the therapeutic intervention period was found to be between 2 and 6 months, providing therapeutic interventions once to 5 times a week, at least 15 minutes to 1 hour a day. The treatment approach was used with impairment-based intervention and adaptive-based intervention, and the assessment method was divided into clinical evaluation and non-instrumental assessments. Conclusion: Through this systematic review, we found that there are a variety of oral sensorimotor interventions for children with cerebral palsy with feeding disorders. This study provides support for planning oral sensorimotor intervention programs for occupational therapy in clinical practice for children with cerebral palsy.

This study tried to derive implications by analyzing the literature related to food psychology to understand the psychological and emotional influence of food. The results of an exploratory study on food psychology are as follows. First, it was found that the perception of taste is related to an individual's state of mind. Second, as the theories for understanding the psychological aspects of food intake, the eating inhibition theory, the emotion regulation theory, and the escape model for binge eating based on the narcissistic theory were confirmed. Third, it was found that tools that can measure symptoms related to binge eating occupy a large portion of food-related diagnostic tools. Fourth, research on food-related psychological disorders was conducted on food cravings, binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, eating inhibition, and healthy food obsession. Fifth, it was found that studies related to the treatment of food-related psychological disorders were focused on the cognitive behavioral therapy approach. This study will serve as a basis for understanding and intervening in the emotional impact of food and psychological problems related to food.

Objective : This study was conducted to confirm general differences in eating attitudes according to the sensory processing characteristics of women. Methods : The Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (AASP) and the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26) were used to survey 241 women. Their eating attitudes according to the sensory processing characteristics was analyzed using an independent t-test and one-way ANOVA, and the post-analysis was performed using the Scheffe test. Results : Among the sensory processing characteristics, except for eating control due to low registration, binge-eating and foodlessness due to sensory avoidance, all eating attitudes were significantly different according to sensory processing characteristics (p<.05). The anorexic behaviour, binge-eating and foodlessness was shown to be negative in cases of those who had much lower registration than most people. All eating attitudes, such as anorexia, binge-eating and foodlessness, and eating control, were shown to be negative in cases of women whose sensation seeking was equal to or much greater than the general population. The binge-eating and foodlessness were shown to be negative in cases of high sensory sensitivity. The anorexic behaviour was shown to be negative in cases of elevated sensory avoidance. Conclusion : Eating attitudes differed depending on the sensory processing characteristics. As such, sensory integration mediation can be proposed as a method of controlling the eating attitudes of women in general.

Objective : This study aims to compare children with and without pervasive developmental disorders in terms of the sensory processing ability and behavioral characteristic of oral feeding. This study also aims to identify correlation between sensory processing and characteristics of eating. Methods : The subjects of this research were normal children and those who have diagnosis of a pervasive developmental disorder, aged from 4 to 6. The research instruments were composed of Short Sensory Profile (SSP), Brief Autism Mealtime Behavior Inventory (BAMBI) and Food Items of the Sensory Checklist. Data collection was done by a professional survey institute located in 10 cities including Busan, South Korea. The survey questionnaires were distributed to 455 parents of children with and without pervasive developmental disabilities through the survey institutes. Total 263 answers were collected out of 455 questionnaires (62%) and 154 answers were used in data analysis. Out of 154 answers, 45 were for children with pervasive developmental disabilities and 109 were for normal children. Data analysis was done to identify correlations between sensory processing and characteristics of eating such as eating behavior and oral feeding. Results : 1. There was a significant difference between children with and without pervasive developmental disorders in all area of sensory processing ability (p<.05). 2. There was no difference between children with and without pervasive developmental disorders in eating behavior (p=0.881) and oral feeding (p=0.324). 3. In the group of children with a pervasive developmental disorders, it is found that there is negative correlation between sensory processing, eating behavior and oral feeding (r=-0.384, p<.01). 4. A remarkable significant correlation was found between sensory processing and eating behavior especially in taste/smell sensitivity (r=-0.6, p<.01) and auditory filtering (r=-0.326, p<.05). The correlation between sensory processing and oral feeding was most significant in under responsiveness/seeking sensation (r=-0.372, p<.05) and auditory filtering (r=-0.382, p<.05). Conclusion : This study found that there are significant correlations between sensory processing ability and some characteristics of eating behaviors for children with pervasive developmental disorders. This information can be useful to develop a program to intervene eating behavior problems of children with pervasive developmental disorders.

Objectives : The aims of present study was to investigate clinical characteristics of male patients with eating disorders. Methods : The present study included 32 male patients with eating disorders and 75 female patients with eating disorders, recruited from an eating disorders specialized clinic in a university hospital, Seoul, Korea. We compared clinical characteristics of eating disorders and comorbid conditions of depression and anxiety between men and women with eating disorders. Correlations between eating disorders psychopathology in men with eating disorders and their weight suppression(WS) were investigated. Results : There was no difference in age at presentation, age of onset, illness duration, and body mass index at presentation between genders. Male patients with eating disorders had higher rates of premorbid overweight or obesity than female patients with eating disorders had. WS in the male patients was associated with the severity of their eating disorders. Conclusions : The present study provides grounds for improved understanding for clinical features of eating disorders in males.

Purpose: This study was done to test a hypothesized model, the Biobehavioral Family Model (BBFM), on the relationship of family emotional climate, security of parent-child relationship, depression symptoms and eating problems in adolescent girls, to further understanding of eating problems in this population. Methods: With a convenience sample of 647 girls, aged 15 to 18, a self-report survey was conducted which included the Korean form of the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26) to assess eating problems. Results: The estimated results of the structural equation modeling indicated a good fit of data to the hypothesized model proposing that family emotional climate and security of parent-child relationship were associated with the risk of eating problems by way of depression symptoms. That is, negative family emotional climate and insecure parent-child relationship increased the risk of eating problems indirectly by way of depression symptoms. Conclusion: The findings are consistent with the BBFM, which suggests a psychobiologic influence of specific family processes on children's stress-sensitive physical disease activity by way of depression symptoms. Therefore, the applicability of the BBFM for understanding adolescent girls' eating problems is supported. The psychobiologic pathways from depression to eating pathology should be addressed in future studies.
