该项目评估了计算机辅助健康教育知识测验的可靠性，这是一种用于学龄前儿童营养和健康相关知识的多项选择图片识别评估工具。计算Pearson积矩相关系数来评估51名儿童（平均年龄3.6岁）在Head Start学前教育中心注册的测试/重测试成绩之间的总体和成分稳定性。计算Cronbach alpha系数以确定各分量表的内部一致性。计算机辅助测验的总体信度在。82 (p <。01)。对于单个子量表，营养、安全和环境的测试/重测试相关性最高（r = 0.56 ~ 0.56）。牙科、吸烟和健身的相关性较低，但仍具有显著性（r = 37至0.48）。结果表明，计算机辅助知识测验可作为评估幼儿健康教育知识的可靠工具。此外，计算机辅助测试格式对学龄前儿童是高度可接受的，使研究人员能够以一种让他们充分合作和努力的方式，对注意力短暂的幼儿进行更广泛的测试。在这方面，它比传统的纸笔格式提供了几个优势。
The project evaluated the reliability of a computer‐assisted health education knowledge quiz, a multiple‐choice picture identification assessment tool for nutrition and health‐related knowledge in preschool age children. Pearson's product moment correlation coefficients were computed to assess overall and componential stability between test/retest scores of 51 children (mean age 3.6 years) enrolled in a Head Start preschool center. Cronbach alpha coefficients were calculated to determine the internal consistency of the subscales. Overall reliability for the computer‐assisted quiz was high at .82 (p<. 01). For individual subscales, test/retest correlations were highest for Nutrition, Safety, and Environment (r = .56 to .81) and lower but still significant for Dental, Smoking, and Fitness (r = 37 to .48). Results suggest a computer‐assisted knowledge quiz can provide a reliable tool to assess health education knowledge in young children. In addition, the computer‐assisted test format is highly acceptable to preschool children and enables researchers to administer a more extensive test to young children with brief attention spans in a manner that engages their full cooperation and effort. In this respect it offers several advantages over traditional paper‐and‐pencil formats.
