背景测量人口水果和蔬菜摄入量的简要调查被用来监测地方和国家水果和蔬菜消费的长期趋势,并评估促进水果和蔬菜消费以预防疾病的干预措施。迄今为止,尚未系统地审查用于测量自我报告的水果和蔬菜消费水平的简短有效的调查工具。MEDLINE检索描述水果和蔬菜项目不超过16个的有效调查工具的论文。共有10项调查工具(项目总数为6至16项)符合我们的检索标准。与深入的饮食评估方法相比,调查工具中水果和蔬菜项目的数量相对较多,并对部分大小和混合蔬菜菜肴提出了问题,其特点是水果和蔬菜摄入量的Pearson和/或斯皮尔曼秩相关系数较高,并且对平均/中位数总水果和蔬菜摄入量的估计更接近。这一审查建议,列入适量的代表性水果和蔬菜项目。以及对份量和混合蔬菜菜肴消费量的问题的审查,可以提高简短的水果和蔬菜工具的有效性。(C)2003年美国健康基金会和爱思唯尔科学(美国)。All rights reserved.
Background. Brief surveys measuring fruit and vegetable intakes of populations have been used to monitor local and national trends in fruit and vegetable consumption over time, and to evaluate interventions to promote fruit and vegetable consumption for the primary prevention of disease. To date, brief validated Survey instruments measuring self-reported fruit and vegetable consumption levels have not been systematically reviewed.Methods. MEDLINE search for papers describing validated survey instruments with 16 or fewer fruit and vegetable items.Results. Ten survey instruments with total numbers of 6 to 16 items met our search criteria. In comparisons with in-depth dietary assessment methods, survey instruments with relatively greater numbers of fruit and vegetable items, and with questions on portion sizes and mixed vegetable dishes, were characterized by higher Pearson and/or Spearman rank correlation coefficients for fruit and vegetable intakes and by closer estimations of mean/median total fruit and vegetable intakes.Conclusions. This review suggests that the inclusion of a moderate number of representative fruit and vegetable items. and the review of questions on portion size and the consumption of mixed vegetable dishes, may enhance the validity of brief fruit and vegetable instruments.
