Are you a parent of a child with a learning disability, aged 5 to 18 years? Do you have a few minutes to spare to fill out a brief questionnaire online? A trainee clinical psychologist from the University of Edinburgh is carrying out an on-line survey into healthy eating in children with a learning disability. It is hoped that the study will enable the researchers to better understand the relationship between children's eating-related behaviours and parental beliefs/ attitudes. With increased understanding, it may be possible to better support parents to manage their children's diet-related behavioural problems, and also to better understand why obesity is more likely to develop amongst those with a learning disability. The RTS Support Group has asked for the results of the research to assess whether we may be able to benefit from it. If you would like to complete the survey, please read the introductory information here first.
