Abstract

Çocuklarda yeme davranışı ile obezite arasındaki ilişkiyi açıklayabilecek ve dolayısıyla bu popülasyonda obezitenin önlenmesini ve tedavisini geliştirebilecek ölçekler eksiktir. ABD’de olduğu gibi Türk kullanımı da obezite riski taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma Çocuklar için Lezzetli Yeme Motifleri Ölçeği’nin Türkçe versiyonunun geçerlik ve güvenirliğini test etmek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
The methodological Metodolojik tipte gerçekleştirilen araştırma, Mart 2023-Mayıs 2023 tarihleri arasında 8-18 yaş aralığındaki 344 çocuk ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çocukların Lezzetli Yeme Motifleri Ölçeği’nin çeviri-geri çeviri yöntemi kullanılarak dil uyarlaması sağlanmıştır. Geçerlilik analizi içerik, yüz ve yapı yöntemlerini içermektedir. Test güvenirliğinde madde, yarıya bölme yöntemi ve Cronbach alfa katsayısı kullanılmıştır.
Ölçek 19 maddeden ve dört alt boyuttan veya motiften oluşmuştur. Açıklayıcı faktör analizine göre dört faktörlü yapı toplam varyansın %72.19’unu açıklamaktadır. Madde faktör yükleri 0.32 ile 0.99 arasında değişmektedir. Ölçeğin Cronbach alfa katsayısı 0.92 olarak bulunmuştur. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizinde uyum iyiliği indeksleri GFI=0.92, CFI=0.97, IFI=0.97, RFI=0.94, NFI=0.95, TLI=0.96 ve RMSEA=0.061 olarak bulunmuştur. Araştırma sonucunda Çocuklar için Lezzetli Yeme Motivasyonları Ölçeği’nin Türk dili, kültürü, obezite ve komplikasyonları riski taşıyan Türk gençleri için uygun, geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Psychometric Properties of the Turkish Version of the Kids-Palatable Eating Motives Scale

Abstract

Scales that can elucidate the relationship between eating behavior and obesity in children, and thereby improve prevention and treatment of obesity in this population are lacking. As in the U.S., Turkish use are at risk for obesity. This study was conducted to test the validity and reliability of a Turkish version of the Kids-Palatable Eating Motives Scale.
The methodological type of research was conducted between March 2023 and May 2023 with 344 children between the ages of 8-18. They completed a translated and back-translated version of the Kids-Palatable Eating Motives Scale. Validity analysis included content, face, and construct methods. Item, split-half method, and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient were employed in testing reliability.
The content validity index was 0.99. Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value was 0.915 and Bartlett’s value was χ2=6195.792 (p<0.001). The scale consisted of 19 items and four sub-dimensions or motives. According to the explanatory factor analysis, the four-factor structure explained 72.19% of the total variance. Item factor loads varied between 0.32 and 0.99. The scale Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.92. Confirmatory factor analysis yielded goodness of fit indices of GFI=0.92, CFI=0.97, IFI=0.97, RFI=0.94, NFI=0.95, TLI=0.96, and RMSEA=0.061. The research determined that the Turkish Kids-Palatable Eating Motives Scale was valid, reliable, and appropriate for Turkish language, culture, and Turkish youth who are at risk of obesity and its complications.
