The food situations questionnaire: A measure of children's willingness to try novel foods in stimulating and non-stimulating situations
Abstract
This paper reports the development and validation of a self-report measure of food neophobia for children. Items described hypothetical situations in which novel foods might be encountered and asked children to report how they would feel about tasting or eating them. Ten items, representing two correlated subscales, were selected from among a larger number, using standard item selection measures with a total of 335 children, aged 7-12 years. The two subscales represent willingness to try novel foods in highly stimulating circumstances and willingness to try novel foods in non-stimulating circumstances. The test was shown to significantly predict actual willingness to taste novel foods in a laboratory situation. In addition, it was shown to predict such willingness better than parents' reports of the children's neophobia. Finally, the test was shown to have satisfactory internal and test-retest reliabilities.

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.
