Abstract

Abstract: Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of a Chinese version of Child Feeding Questionnaire (c-CFQ) in parents of preschool children. Methods A Chinese version of CFQ was obtained after forward translation,synthesis,back translation,research group review and expert committee review.A total of 198 valid questionnaires of Chinese CFQ were completed by a convenient sample of parents of preschool children (3~7 years old).Psychometric properties of c-CFQ were examined by factor analysis for construct validity and Cronbach′s alpha coefficient for internal consistency reliability.Additionally,intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) for test-retest reliability over 5 days was tested in 20 targeted population. Results The final Chinese version comprised 26 items and reflected 8 dimensions after exploratory factor analysis,which explained 68.509% of the total variance.Confirmatory factor analysis further supported this eight-dimension structure.The internal consistency reliability evaluated by Cronbach′s alpha was 0.598～0.867 for the eight subscales and the whole questionnaire.The test-retest reliability across 5 days ranged from 0.791 to 0.963. Conclusion Chinese version c-CFQ has satisfactory validity and acceptable reliability,and can be used to evaluate the feeding practice and beliefs among parents of preschool children.
