Abstract

Objective To study the determinants and nature of dietary underreporting in a free-living population.Design Cross-sectional study of nutritional and behavioural characteristics.Subjects 1030 weight-stable subjects, 501 women and 529 men older than 15 y, included in the Fleurbaix Laventie Ville Santé study.Measurements Dietary intake was assessed using a 3 dy dietary record. Self assessed body weight and height were also recorded. Behavioural and socio-economic data were obtained from a questionnaire. Underreporters were defined as people with a reported ratio of energy intake to estimated basal metabolic rate lower than 1.05.Results Underreporting concerned 16% of the population and was significantly more frequent in obese than in non obese subjects (P < 0.001). Underreporting was significantly associated with a high socio-professional class (P < 0.05), having dieted at least once (P < 0.01) and to be in dietary restraint (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the contribution of protein to energy intake was significantly higher in underreporters than in non underreporters, independently of weight status.Conclusions These data underline that underreporting may bias the assessment of energy and macronutrient intake, particularly in studies on obesity and dietary restraint. Questions about weight concern, dieting and dietary restraint may be useful to identify subjects who underestimate their food intake.

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.
