BACKGROUND Comprehensive evaluation of dietary interventions depends on effective and efficient measurement to quantify behavior change. To date, little is known regarding which self-reported measure of dietary intake is most feasible and acceptable for use in evaluation of the effectiveness of diet intervention studies among underserved populations. OBJECTIVE This research focused on evaluating feasibility and acceptability of two self-report measures of diet. DESIGN Cross-sectional. PARTICIPANTS/SETTING Two interviewer-administered 24-hour recalls and a 110-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) were administered to both English- and Spanish-speaking participants (n=36) by native English- and Spanish-speaking research assistants. On completion of both dietary assessments, participants were interviewed regarding their preference of measure. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Feasibility for completion of the dietary assessment measures was determined for contacts and retention. Acceptability of the measures was determined through responses to open- and closed-ended questions. RESULTS During the 5-month trial, 36 participants were enrolled; 29 completed both intake measures, and 26 completed both measures and the interview. Participants were mainly Hispanic/Latina (72%), with a mean age of 37.0 (±7.6) years. Feasibility targets were met for contacts (1.9, 1.6, 1.8 contact attempts to complete each diet assessment measure with a target of ≤2) and for retention with 89% and 91% completing two 24-hour recalls and the FFQ, respectively. Participants indicated both diet assessment methods were generally acceptable; both positive and negative comments were received for use of the FFQ. CONCLUSION Dietary assessment with the use of 24-hour recalls or an FFQ can be feasible and acceptable among women with low socioeconomic status, although care should be taken to address cultural appropriateness in the selection of the measurement method.

低社会经济地位女性通过 24 小时回忆和食物频率问卷评估膳食摄入量的可行性和可接受性

背景 饮食干预的综合评估取决于有效和高效的测量来量化行为变化。迄今为止，关于哪种自我报告的饮食摄入量最适合用于评估服务不足人群的饮食干预研究的有效性，知之甚少。目的 本研究的重点是评估两种自我报告饮食措施的可行性和可接受性。设计横截面。参与者/环境 由母语为英语和西班牙语的研究助理对讲英语和西班牙语的参与者 (n=36) 进行了两次采访者管理的 24 小时回忆和 110 项食物频率问卷 (FFQ)。在完成两项饮食评估后，参与者就他们的测量偏好接受了采访。主要结果测量确定完成饮食评估测量的可行性以接触和保留。这些措施的可接受性是通过对开放式和封闭式问题的回答来确定的。结果 在为期 5 个月的试验中，共招募了 36 名参与者；29 人完成了入学措施，26 人完成了措施和面试。参与者主要是西班牙裔/拉丁裔 (72%)，平均年龄为 37.0 (±7.6) 岁。联系人达到了可行性目标（1.9、1.6、1.8 次接触尝试完成每个饮食评估措施，目标≤2），保留率分别为 89% 和 91%，分别完成了两次 24 小时召回和 FFQ。参与者表示这两种饮食评估方法普遍可以接受；FFQ 的使用收到了正面和负面的评论。
