In an effort to ensure the continued high quality of NIFA’s Childhood Obesity Prevention programs, NIFA invites input on the scientific priorities for the Integrated Approaches to Prevent Childhood Obesity programs. These programs are fully integrated, coordinating research, education, and extension efforts to combat the challenge of childhood obesity. We will consider comments when we develop future Childhood Obesity Prevention RFAs.
This is an opportunity to express your view point, reactions, and concerns as a stakeholder of the AFRI competitive grants program and provide feedback on current program areas as well as your vision for future nutrition research, education, and extension programs.

HomeStyles: A Case Study in Developing a Childhood-Obesity Prevention Intervention
Thursday Aug 25, 2016
Thursday Aug 25, 2016
Recorded Tuesday, August 2, 2016.
Moderator: Carol Byrd-Bredbenner, PhD, RD, FAND, Rutgers University
Speakers: Carol Byrd-Bredbenner, PhD, RD, FAND, Rutgers University; Jennifer Martin-Biggers, MS, RD, Rutgers University
The theory-driven HomeStyles intervention enables and motivates parents to shape their home environment and lifestyle behavioral practices (diet, exercise, sleep) using quick, easy, no-cost strategies to prevent excessive weight gain in their preschool children (ages 2-5 years). The session will elucidate the development and implemention of HomeStyles, starting from conceptualization to implementation of randomized controlled trial, using best practices identified in the research literature and by guidance from a panel of experts in health behavior change, nutrition, physical activity, child development, parenting and adult education, including motivational interviewing, healthy behavior change theory, and community based participatory research principles.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe best practices for developing childhood obesity prevention interventions targeting home environments and lifestyle practices.Summarize the importance of using social ecological model, social cognitive theory constructs, adult learning theory, community based participatory research, and motivational interviewing to guide intervention development.Create and implement interventions using best practices.

Speakers: George Davis, PhD, Virginia Tech; Elena Serrano, PhD, Virginia Tech
Cognitive load is determined by how much attention, focus, and concentration a decision requires. Neuro-economics is a relatively new field of economics that combines methods and theories from neuroscience, psychology, economics, and computer science to better understand the process of decision-making and the resulting choices. The goal of this session is to provide participants with a foundation in these disciplines to help develop more effective programming. This session will provide an overview of cognitive load and neuro-economics as they apply to food choices and nutrition with opportunities for group discussion to consider applications within programs and also research initiatives.
Learning Objectives:
- To understand the constructs of cognitive load and neuro-economics.To identify how cognitive load and neuro-economics help provide insight into food and nutrition choices, particularly among individuals with budget constraints, such as low-income individuals.To discuss strategies for addressing cognitive load and neuro-economics within nutrition education programs and research.

This session aims to raise awareness and boost understanding of how emerging innovations and applications of theoretical frameworks for behavior are used to engage and retain participants in Nutrition and Physical Activity Education (NPAE) that involve both the physical and virtual spaces. Learn how instructional design, media, virtual worlds, and virtual reality technologies are designed and applied to change health behaviors and reduce health disparities through innovative health communication modalities and behavior change strategies. Come hear the experts describe how existing and potential applications of virtual reality and digital health technology worldwide can improve NPAE across the life span.

Recorded Sunday, July 31, 2016.
Moderator: Maya Maroto, EdD, MPH, RD, USDA Food and Nutrition Service
Speaker: Alicia White, MS, RD, USDA Food and Nutrition Service; Sally Spero, Lakeside Union School District; Maya Maroto, EdD, MPH, RD, USDA Food and Nutrition Service
During the school year, over 30 million children in the United States receive meals through school lunch programs. When the school year ends, food insecurity becomes more prevalent among school-aged children. The Summer Food Service Program and the Seamless Summer Option of the National School Lunch Program help alleviate the summer nutrition gap and make meals accessible to children over the summer months. Offering nutrition education and physical activities at summer meal sites may help increase summer meal participation, while teaching healthy behaviors. This session will highlight new formative research about summer meal programs and practical strategies for nutrition education.
Learning Objectives:
- Participants will be able to describe the USDA summer meal programs and best practices for meal service and nutrition education.Participants will be able to discuss formative research findings regarding parents’ perceptions about their child’s eating and physical activity habits during the summer as compared to the school year.Participants will be able to access free nutrition education resources for summer meal programs.

What better way to expand your thinking than through group discussion after watching select video segments about food choice behaviors and our nation’s health! Learn from each other as moderators pose thought stimulating questions and foster intriguing dialogue among attendees. This unique session will both challenge and stimulate your thinking in nutrition education.
Non-fat, low-fat, saturated fat, trans fats, healthy fats - in an era where we seem to be constantly bombarded with often conflicting messages about our diets, is all this information actually making us any healthier? How can we cut through media hysteria and make wise choices about the food we eat, and what impact do our consumption habits have, not just on our own health but that of the planet?
Presenters on the video: Professor Susan Jebb, Professor of Diet and Population Health, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, University of Oxford; Dr. Tara Garnett, Principal Investigator, Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Food; Professor Mike Rayner, Principal Investigator, Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Food and Professor of Population Health, University of Oxford
