Development and Validation of the Child Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (CTFEQr17)Bryant, Eleanor J. 15 May 2018 (has links)
Yes / OBJECTIVE: Develop and validate a child and adolescent version of the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (CTFEQr17), and to assess its psychometric properties and factor structure. We also examined associations between the CTFEQr17 and body mass index (BMI) and food preferences.
DESIGN: A two-phase approach was utilised, employing both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.
SETTING: Primary and secondary schools, UK.
SUBJECTS: In phase 1, 76 children (39 boys; mean age: 12.3±1.4 years) were interviewed to ascertain their understanding of the original TFEQr21 and to develop accessible and understandable items to create the CTFEQr17. In phase 2, 433 children (230 boys; mean age: 12.0±1.7 years) completed the CTFEQr17 and a food preference questionnaire, a subsample (n = 253; 131 boys) had their height and weight measured and 45 children (23 boys) were interviewed to determine their understanding of the CTFEQr17.
RESULTS: The CTFEQr17 showed good internal consistency (Cronbach’s α=0.85) and the three factor structure was retained: cognitive restraint (CR), uncontrolled eating (UE) and emotional eating (EE). Qualitative data demonstrated a high level of understanding of the questionnaire (95%). A high CR was found to be significantly associated with a higher body weight, BMI and BMI percentile. High UE and EE scores were related to a preference for high fat savoury and high fat sweet foods. The relationships between CTFEQr17, anthropometry and food preference were stronger in girls compared to boys.
CONCLUSIONS: The CTFEQr17 is a psychometrically sound questionnaire for use in children and adolescents, and is associated with anthropometric and food preference measures.

An investigation into the impact of a sport intervention in three London secondary schoolsBrown, Joanna F. M. January 2011 (has links)
Sports interventions programmes for children have gained popularity in recent years as a response to a number of welfare issues, including rising levels of obesity, declining fitness, academic attainment and delinquent behaviour. Faith in sport to address these different issues indicates that it is seen as an expedient ‘cure all’ solution. However, despite calls for evidence, few studies have addressed the impact of a programme on children’s health, fitness and well-being. This study investigates the impact of a sport intervention programme called “Move It” on (n = 785) participants (11-14 years of age) attending 3 secondary schools in inner city London between 2004 and 2007. Various measures were undertaken to monitor health, fitness, and self-evaluated self-esteem, academic attainment and behaviour. In addition, Case Study was used to understand more about a programme’s implementation at a particular school and to uncover any features that were not apparent in the earlier analysis. Results indicated that, over three years, there was no conclusive evidence of positive outcomes to health, fitness, and self-evaluated self-esteem, academic attainment and behaviour. Moreover the level of engagement of a school was not found to have an impact on quantitative outcomes. However, Case Study evidence indicated that a programme can be managed toward outcomes specifically targeted by the school, such as creating personal development avenues, opportunities for pupils, and improving social cohesion. Findings are discussed with respect to theoretical and policy developments and recommendations for future research are offered.

Die Adipositas und ihre mitunter schwerwiegenden Auswirkungen nimmt in öffentlichen Diskussionen einen immer größeren Stellenwert ein. In Deutschland leiden neben 37 Millionen Erwachsenen derzeit rund 2 Millionen Kinder an Übergewicht oder Adipositas. Das Arbeitsbuch wendet sich an die Eltern betroffener Kinder.
Erklärt wird die Entstehung der Adipositas, zudem sind Informationen zu gesunder Ernährung und deren Umsetzung im Alltag enthalten. Zusätzlich wird auf den wichtigen Faktor der Bewegung sowie eine mögliche erneute Gewichtszunahme eingegangen.
Entwickelt wurde das Arbeitsbuch im Rahmen einer Studie und spricht die teilnehmenden Eltern an, deren Kinder sich aufgrund von Adipositas in einer Reha-Klinik befinden. Die enthaltenen Informationen und Alltagshilfen sind jedoch auch für alle anderen betroffenen Eltern relevant. / Obesity und its consequences have more and more aroused public interest.
