Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
we measure the amount of food before the child enters the room with a weighing scale. We do this also after the game, so we can see how much each child has eaten. We will analyse this with SPSS.[before the children have played the game we measure the amount of food, and we do the same after the experiment has ended, before the next child enters the experiment room. The children can eat snacks for approximately 5 minutes, during the advergame. ]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
the self-control of the children is assessed by viewing the behavior of the children with a videoscreen, connected to a camera in the room. The experimenter sits outside the room and can watch what is happening in the room, to check whether the children eat, what they eat, and also how they try not to eat. [we measure this during the advergame.]
