本研究描述了一个衡量父母对幼儿零食摄入影响的工具，幼儿零食喂养问卷（TSFFQ），并提供了证据的因素结构，重测信度，收敛，判别和同时效度的工具。探索性因素分析（EFA）进行了两个样本（幼儿的父母说明目前的做法：学龄前儿童的父母回忆过去的做法）。全民教育确定了五个有意义和可解释的因素：规则、灵活性、允许进入、自我效能和儿童的吸引力。允许访问，灵活性和儿童的吸引力与幼儿的零食消费频率呈正相关。仅在学龄前样本中，非超重和超重父母在允许访问上的得分均显着低于肥胖父母。父母对过去喂养的回忆与学龄前儿童的BMI z分数之间没有显着相关性。TSFFQ加强了我们对父母如何控制孩子零食摄入量的理解，可以沿着其他父母喂养控制措施来调查父母对孩子饮食行为、食物偏好、能量平衡和体重状况的影响。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
This study describes the development of a measure of parental influences on toddlers' intake of snack foods, the Toddler Snack Food Feeding Questionnaire (TSFFQ), and presents evidence for the factor structure, test-retest reliability, convergent, discriminant and concurrent validity of the instrument. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted in two samples (parents of toddlers stating current practices: parents of preschoolers recalling past practices). EFA identified five meaningful and interpretable factors: Rules, Flexibility, Allow Access, Self-efficacy and Child's Attraction. Allow Access, Flexibility, and Child's Attraction were positively correlated with frequency of toddlers' snack food consumption. In the preschool sample only, not-overweight and overweight parents both had significantly lower scores than obese parents on Allow Access. No significant correlations were found between parents' recall of past feeding and BMI z-scores at preschool age. The TSFFQ strengthens our understanding of how parents control their children's intake of snack foods and could be used along with other measures of parental feeding control to investigate parental influences on children's eating behaviour, food preferences, energy balance and weight status.
