Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nutrition knowledge is a factor affecting diet, but there is no tool to assess general nutrition knowledge of adults in Japan. Our aims were to determine the validity and reliability of a general nutrition knowledge questionnaire for Japanese adults. We administered intervention for 1182 Japanese adults aged 18-64 years to consider of items inclusion for the Japanese general nutrition knowledge questionnaire (JGNKQ). As a result, the questionnaire was consisted of 5 sections and 147 items. The JGNKQ was administered to 140 female undergraduate students in senior year twice to assess construct validity and test-retest reliability. As a result, the questionnaire had good construct validity and test-retest reliability.
