The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between awareness of taste education and parenting attitude of eating habits on mothers of early childhood. he subject of study was a mother with infant children and 150 copies of the questionnaire were used for analysis. The number of questions was 14 questions for awareness of taste education and 10 questions for parenting attitude of eating habits and the reliability between the questions was analyzed to be reliable at 0.935 and 0.689, respectively. The mother's awareness of taste education showed high responses in the order of five senses development, positive food taste, joy of eating food, improving dietary awareness and improving expression ability. The mother's parenting attitude of eating habits showed a high response in the order of providing safe food, providing safe size, and providing regular fruits and dairy products. Two factors were extracted for the awareness of taste education and it was named as improving dietary awareness and improving dietary behavior. Three factors were extracted for the parenting attitude of eating habits and they were named parenting attitude of regular eating habits, parenting attitude of safe eating habits and parenting attitude of compensatory eating habits. As a result of verifying the relationship between awareness of taste education and parenting attitude of eating habits, it was confirmed that both dietary awareness and dietary behavior improvement had a statistically significant effect on parenting attitude of regular eating habits(p<0.05). In the verification of the relationship with parenting attitude of safe eating habits, it was found that only improving dietary awareness had a statistically significant effect (p<0.01). Since it has been confirmed that the mother's awareness of taste education affects the overall parenting attitude of eating habits, effective and systematic taste education for mothers with infant children needs to be promoted.
Purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the parenting attitude of eating habits of mothers of infants, eating habits of children, and food preferences.
