In addition, little research has focused on factors associated with the frequency of evening family meals, such as feeding styles (how parents interact with their child around feeding). Therefore the goals of this paper are to explore the 1) association between the frequency of evening family meals and child weight status among new immigrant families, and 2) influence of immigrant mothers' feeding styles on the frequency of evening family meals.; Keywords: Family meal, Feeding styles, Children, Obesity, Immigrants.; Springer Open. %[ 2018-10-11 %9 Text %~ Tufts Digital Library %W Institution
