Summary

This trial is testing new behavioral science methods and measures. Eligible participants are parents of children 3-7 years old. There are four tasks involved in the study.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adult parents, both fathers and mothers, who can read and write in English. They should have children aged between 3-7 years without major allergies or dietary-related health conditions and be able to visit the NIH Clinical Center once.
What is being tested?
The study tests new behavioral science methods by having participants complete tasks like answering questions online about child health, watching a movie scene, reading information on child health topics, and making virtual food choices for their child.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a behavioral study involving information provision and emotion induction through various tasks rather than medical interventions, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participation.
