Penelitian ini bertujuan melihat bagaimana prinsip Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) dapat digunakan untuk mengatasi masalah makan selektif (selective eating) pada anak perempuan usia 7 tahun. Menggunakan desain penelitian kuasi-eksperimental dengan subjek tunggal (n=1), partisipan diberikan program intervensi Yuk Makan! dengan prinsip CBT yang terdiri dari 5 sesi psikoedukasi dan 4 sesi pemaparan (exposure). Pengukuran perilaku selective eating dilakukan pada fase baseline (pre-test), tepat setelah sesi intervensi terakhir diberikan (post-test), dan pada fase follow up selang 2 bulan kemudian. Secara kuantitatif, program Yuk Makan! belum sepenuhnya mampu mengatasi perilaku selective eating partisipan. Namun, program berhasil meningkatkan ketertarikan partisipan terhadap makanan serta kecenderungan untuk merasa lebih nyaman dalam situasi makan, yang terlihat dari peningkatan skor enjoyment of food pada alat ukur CEBQ. Secara kualitatif, program Yuk Makan! mampu meningkatkan kualitas perilaku makan partisipan, yang terlihat dari pencapaiannya dalam mengubah pemikiran negatif terhadap makanan menjadi pemikiran yang lebih positif. Baik partisipan, orang tua, dan guru juga melaporkan peningkatan kepuasan terhadap perilaku makan partisipan di rumah dan sekolah. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa program intervensi Yuk Makan! dengan prinsip CBT mampu meningkatkan kualitas perilaku makan partisipan.
