Abstract

OBJECTIVE

Examine the validity of a self-report measure of eating competence with low-income women.

METHODS

Twenty-five females (18-49 years old) recruited from low-income venues in Pennsylvania completed cognitive testing through an iterative interview process. Respondents' oral responses were compared to researchers' intended meaning of ecSatter Inventory (ecSI) items; responses were mapped to evaluate the similarity between respondents' internally generated answers and their ecSI choices for survey items; and scored responses were compared among participants.

RESULTS

Interview findings provided a rationale for modifying the ecSI prior to use with low-income women. Four items were misinterpreted for various reasons, including problems with clarity and wording. The modified ecSI, termed the ecSatter Inventory for Low-Income (ecSI/LI), was comprehended as intended by researchers. Congruence of cognitive responses and ecS/LI scores further supported the instrument's validity.

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS

Cognitive testing resulted in the development of an instrument to measure eating competence in low-income adults. The ecSI/LI requires validation with a large, heterogeneous low-income sample.

摘要

目的

检验一种针对低收入女性的自我报告式饮食能力评估方法的有效性。

方法

从宾夕法尼亚州的低收入场所招募了 25 名女性（18-49 岁），通过迭代访谈过程完成认知测试。受访者的口头回答与 ecSatter 清单（ecSI）项目的研究人员的预期含义进行了比较；通过映射回答来评估受访者内部生成的答案与他们对调查项目的 ecSI 选择之间的相似性；并对参与者的评分回答进行比较。
