摘要
We investigated telephone administration of the Children's Social Desirability (CSD) scale and our adaptation for children of the Social Desirability for Food scale (C-SDF). Each of 100 4th-graders completed 2 telephone interviews 28 days apart. CSD scores had adequate internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and a 14-item subset was identified that sufficiently measures the same construct. Our C-SDF scale per-formed less well in terms of internal consistency and test-retest reliability; factor analysis revealed 2 factors, I of which was moderately related to the CSD. The 14-item subset of the CSD scale may help researchers understand error in children's dietary reports.
