To develop an informed, reliable data collection tool to code restaurants found within the youth food environment.
Registered Dietitians were surveyed and academic literature review was reviewed to determine health centric food environment features. Features were incorporated into an electronic data collection tool. Inter-rater reliability was tested across coders of varying nutrition training on all restaurants located within a half-mile of three high schools.
Sixteen restaurant food environment codes were generated. Data collection had a mean inter-rater reliability of 90.7% agreement (range=81.3-100%), suggesting that regardless of nutrition training, the restaurant food environment can be reliability coded.
Academic and public health professionals can use this tool to collect reliable, informed local restaurant food environment data.
开发一种信息充分、可靠的数据收集工具，用于对青少年饮食环境中的餐厅进行编码。
对注册营养师进行调查，并对学术文献进行综述，以确定以健康为中心的饮食环境特征。这些特征被纳入一个电子数据收集工具中。对三所高中半英里范围内的所有餐厅，由不同营养培训水平的编码员进行评分者间信度测试。
生成了16种餐厅饮食环境编码。数据收集的评分者间信度平均一致性为90.7%（范围=81.3-100%），这表明无论营养培训情况如何，餐厅饮食环境都可以可靠地编码。
学术和公共卫生专业人员可以使用此工具收集可靠、信息充分的当地餐厅饮食环境数据。
