Abstract
We examined whether mother-reported and observed toddler eating and drinking intake at age 27 months predicted kilocalories consumed during an eating in the absence of hunger (EAH) protocol at age 33 months. Findings showed that observed toddlers drinking at 27 months predicted more EAH-kilocalories consumption at 33 months.
