SUMMARY
Dietary records used for food consumption evaluation in adolescents: comparison among methods
Given the difficulties surrounding evaluating food consumption, specifically during adolescence, the goal of the present study was to compare different dietary assessment instruments used for this age group. The study was carried out with a group of 60 female adolescents between 14 and 18 years of age. Three repetitions of 24-Hour Recall, three-day Dietary Records and Purchase List of the adolescents and their families were collected. The 24 Hour Recall and Dietary Records had good repeatability, allowing to infer that only one application of one of these instruments was capable of reflecting the ingestion average (or median) of the study population group. The Purchase List allowed us to know the food availability within the context of the individual’s conditions. All dietary assessment instruments may contain errors, therefore the choice of the most adequate method must rely on the objectives of the study being developed, as well as the study population.
Keywords: Adolescence, food intake, food records.
