I'll grant that some are for sure. But it doesn't mean other parents can't quietly and effectively notice their children's responses to various foods.
Frankly any sort of research on behaviors imo should eventually move to scoring by completely objective measures (e.g. computer assessment of whether they can watch a screen for 30 seconds and how often they look away, or whether they can read a paragraph)
- parpfish 2y agoobjective measures would be great for the physiological questions about a link between sugar and hyperactivity. but these studies are about our cultural beliefs in the link between sugar and hyperactivity which requires subjective measures.
- SiempreViernes 2y agoThat seems pretty pointless given that the "hyperactivity" under study is a condition operationally defined by asking the parent.
