Summary

This study tested whether adding praise from parents and game-like features (points, levels, a virtual pet) to a digital food log helps children aged 8-12 track their eating more often. Nineteen children and their caregivers participated for 4 weeks. The goal was to see if these positive reinforcement strategies improve how consistently kids log their food and drinks.
