The children's DEBQ for assessment of restrained, emotional, and external eating in 7‐ to 12‐year‐old children

van Strien, Tatjana, Oosterveld, Paul·2008·International Journal of Eating Disorders

Abstract

Objective: Construct an age adapted version of the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) for measurement of restrained, emotional and external eating in 7‐ to 12‐year‐old children: the DEBQ‐C. Method: The DEBQ‐C was constructed and tested for its reliability, factorial validity, factorial invariance for sex, overweight (BMI‐status), and age, and correlations with measures for unhealthy life style in one sample (382 boys and 387 girls). In a second sample (252 boys and 263 girls) correlations were obtained with measures for body dissatisfaction and parental feeding styles. Single and multigroup confirmatory factor analyses were used. Results: The fit measures for the three factor model and the factorial invariance models with respect to sex, BMI‐status, and age were satisfactory. In the (sub) samples of the 7‐ to 12‐year‐olds Cronbach's alpha's ranged from .73 to .82 and there were satisfactory correlations (p < .01) with other measures. Conclusion: The DEBQ‐C should provide a useful measure for young children's emerging dietary restraint and overeating tendencies. The low prevalence of emotional eating indicates that most young children show the natural reaction to emotional stressors (loss of appetite when feeling lonely, depressed or afraid) and that emotional (over) eating at this age is quite abnormal. © 2007 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
