  abstract = {{I}nappropriate complementary feeding, both in quantity and quality, is a major determinant of undernutrition. {H}owever, little is known about how infant-caregiver's feeding behaviours affect infants' energy intake. {T}herefore, the objective of this study was to characterize infant-caregiver feeding behaviours and investigate their association with infants' energy intake. {T}he study involved 106 mother-child pairs recruited from seven randomly selected kebeles of {M}echa district, {W}est {G}ojam, {E}thiopia. {T}he feeding styles were assessed through observations of 1-day, in-home, feeding episodes that were videotaped and coded into self-feeding, responsive, active, distracting, and social feeding behaviours. {I}nfants' haemoglobin and anthropometric measurements were taken. {T}he association between feeding behaviour scores and energy intake per meal was investigated. {T}he mean food intake of the infants was very low (11.4 +/- 7.0g/kg body weight per meal) compared to the minimum theoretical gastric capacity (30g/kg body weight per meal). {I}nfants' haemoglobin concentration was negatively associated with energy intake (rho = 0.178, p=.03). {I}nfants' responsive and active positive feeding styles were positively associated with energy intakes (rho = 0.258 and 0.432, p=.004 and p<.001, respectively) as well as caregivers' responsive positive feeding styles (rho = 0.237, p=.007). {B}oth haemoglobin concentrations and feeding styles were associated with infant's energy intake. {A}naemia prevention and control measures should be reinforced. {C}urrent nutrition education programmes should give emphasis on ways to effectively incorporate culturally adapted responsive feeding messages in this and similar settings.},
