检验全国健康和营养检查调查中使用的5个问题的食品不安全调查的重测信度和内部一致性。研究人员在2011年春季对92名四年级儿童（74名非洲裔美国人; 48名女孩）进行了为期27-30天的全国健康和营养检查调查。每次课堂管理持续5-10分钟。重测信度为0.66（肯德尔tau），这是适度的。内部一致性（Cronbach α）分别为0.67和0.70。食物不安全评分与性别（调整后P = 0.05）和学业成绩（调整后P = 0.004）有关，但与社会经济地位或体重指数百分位数无关（二项式回归）。平均而言，男孩报告的粮食不安全程度高于女孩。学业成绩较低的儿童比学业成绩较高的儿童报告的粮食不安全程度更高。国家健康和营养检查5个问题的调查可以分组管理，以有效地评估个别四年级儿童报告的粮食不安全状况。
To examine test-retest reliability and internal consistency of a 5-question food insecurity survey used in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Researchers administered the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the classroom to 92 fourth-grade children (74 African American; 48 girls) in 2 sessions 27–30 days apart in spring, 2011. Each classroom administration lasted 5–10 minutes. Test-retest reliability was 0.66 (Kendall tau), which is modest. Internal consistency (Cronbach alpha) was .67 and .70 for respective administrations. Food insecurity scores were related to gender (adjusted P = .05) and academic achievement (adjusted P = .004) but not to socioeconomic status or body mass index percentile (binomial regression). On average, boys reported higher food insecurity than girls. Children with lower academic achievement scores reported higher food insecurity than children with higher academic achievement scores. The National Health and Nutrition Examination 5-question survey may be group administered to assess food insecurity efficiently as reported by individual fourth-grade children.
