And while many treatments are available for severe food refusal, what's a parent to do for less severe but challenging food selectivity? This week Dr. Holly Gover joins us to talk about treatments for increasing food acceptability with children without the use of extinction procedures. Hopefully this will get Rob to finish all of his Brussels sprouts. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. Articles discussed this episode: Gover, H.C., Hanley, G.P., & Ruppel, K.W.
