儿童喂养问卷（CFQ）是一项自我报告的措施，以评估父母的信念，态度和做法，对儿童喂养，重点是肥胖倾向的儿童。验证性因素分析测试了一个7因素模型，其中包括四个因素测量父母的信念与儿童的肥胖倾向，和三个因素测量父母的控制措施和高度对儿童喂养。使用394名母亲和父亲的样本，对三个模型进行了测试，第三个模型证实了可接受的拟合，包括相关因素。7个因子的内部相关系数均在0.70以上。经过微小的改变，同样的7因素模型也在第二个148名母亲和父亲的样本中得到了证实：第三个126名西班牙裔母亲和父亲的样本。正如预测的那样，七个因素中有四个与儿童体重状况的独立测量有关，为该工具的有效性提供了初步支持。CFQ可用于评估儿童喂养的观念、态度和做法，以及它们与儿童发展中的食物接受模式、食物摄入控制和肥胖的关系。CFQ专为2至11岁儿童的父母设计。(C)北京：科学出版社.
The Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ) is a self-report measure to assess parental beliefs, attitudes, and practices regarding child feeding, with a focus on obesity proneness in children. Confirmatory factor analysis tested a 7-factor model, which included four factors measuring parental beliefs related to child's obesity proneness, and three factors measuring parental control practices and altitudes regarding child feeding. Using a sample of 394 mothers and fathers, three models were tested, and the third model confirmed an acceptable fit, including correlated factors. Internal consistencies for the seven factors were above 0.70. With minor changes, this same 7-factor model was also confirmed in a second sample of 148 mothers and fathers: and a third sample of 126 Hispanic mothers and fathers. As predicted, four of the seven factors were related to an independent measure of children's weight status, providing initial support for the validity of the instrument. The CFQ can be used to assess aspects of child-feeding perceptions, attitudes, and practices and their relationships to children's developing food acceptance patterns, the controls of food intake, and obesity. The CFQ is designed for use with parents of children ranging in age from about 2 to 11 years of age. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
