The measurement of food literacy has recently gained momentum globally. The aim of this paper is to review the literature in order to describe and analyse the measurement of adult food literacy. The objectives are to i) identify tools that explicitly measure food literacy in adults; ii) summarise their psychometric properties; and iii) critique tool items against the four domains and 11 components of food literacy, as conceptualised by Vidgen and Gallegos. Using the PRISMA guidelines, a search of seven databases (PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Scopus, EBSCOhost, A+ Education, and ProQuest) was undertaken. 12 studies met the inclusion criteria. Papers reported on either the development of a tool to explicitly measure food literacy or a part thereof ( = 5); food literacy strategy indicators ( = 1); tools developed to evaluate a food literacy intervention ( = 3); or tools to measure food literacy as a characteristic within a broader study ( = 3). Six tools captured all four domains. None measured all components. Items measuring the same component varied considerably. Most tools referenced a theoretical framework, were validated and reliable. This review will assist practitioners select and develop tools for the measurement of food literacy in their context.
食物素养的测量在全球范围内最近得到了重视。本文旨在对文献进行综述，以描述和分析成人食物素养的测量。目的是：i）确定明确测量成人食物素养的工具；ii）总结其心理测量特性；iii）根据 Vidgen 和 Gallegos 提出的四个领域和 11 个组成部分，对工具项目进行评价。使用 PRISMA 指南，对七个数据库（PubMed、Embase、ScienceDirect、Scopus、EBSCOhost、A+ Education 和 ProQuest）进行了检索。有 12 项研究符合纳入标准。这些论文报告了工具的开发，或者是工具的一部分（=5）；食物素养策略指标（=1）；用于评估食物素养干预的工具（=3）；或者是在更广泛的研究中测量食物素养特征的工具（=3）。六个工具涵盖了所有四个领域。没有一个工具测量了所有的组成部分。测量相同组成部分的项目差异很大。大多数工具都参考了一个理论框架，并经过验证和具有可靠性。本综述将有助于从业人员在其背景下选择和开发测量食物素养的工具。
