This study examined the reliability of a newly developed child and parental questionnaire on specific determinants of cycling to school among 10-12 year olds. Validity of child reported distance, bicycle equipment and basic bicycle skills was also investigated. In total 211 children and 33 parents participated in this study. The reliability of the questionnaires was acceptable with results indicating reliability ranging from fair to perfect agreement. Therefore, the questionnaires appear to be reliable tools for assessing specific determinants of cycling to school. Furthermore, it was found that children overestimate their abilities to perform basic bicycle skills. This suggests that objectively measuring bicycle skills is preferred to child reported skills assessment.
本研究检验了一份新开发的关于10至12岁儿童骑车上学特定决定因素的儿童及家长问卷的可靠性。同时还调查了儿童报告的距离、自行车设备及基本自行车技能的有效性。共有211名儿童和33名家长参与了本研究。问卷的可靠性是可接受的，结果表明可靠性范围从一般一致到完全一致。因此，这些问卷似乎是评估骑车上学特定决定因素的可靠工具。此外，研究发现儿童高估了自己执行基本自行车技能的能力。这表明客观测量自行车技能比儿童报告的技能评估更可取。
