Abstract

Nedavno su preliminarnim istraživanjima utvrđena nacionalno specifične veličine porcija hrane i pića u male djece te je, u skladu s tim, izrađena knjiga serija fotografija hrane. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je provesti validaciju spomenutu knjigu te utvrditi je li ona prikladan alat za vizualnu kvantifikaciju različitih masa i vrsta hrane. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 28 ispitanica, majki djece dobi od 3 mjeseca do 10 godina. Validacija se provodila vizualnom procjenom serviranih namirnica pri čemu je trebalo odabrati jednu od 4 fotografije u seriji koja najbolje opisuje stvarnu veličinu servirane porcije. Od 21 serije fotografija, 17 serija je prikladno za procjenu veličine porcije kao pomoćni alat u provođenju dijetetičkih metoda u djece. Ispitanice su najlošije procijenile veličine porcije za bananu (29,3%), griz (22,8%), hrenovke (20,3%) te obični jogurt (19,1%). Za najlošije procijenjena jela, dodatnim istraživanjima utvrdit će se razlozi neuspješne procjene i sukladno tome ponoviti validacija.

Abstract (english)

Preliminary research has recently established nationally specific food and drink portion sizes for children and a book of series of food photographs has been created. The aim of this research is to validate the aforementioned book and establish whether it is an appropriate tool for visual quantification of various masses and types of food. 28 mothers with children between 3 months and 10 years of age took part in this research. The validation was carried out via visual assessment of served food items. One of four photographs in the series which best describes the real size of the served portion had to be selected. Out of 21 photograph series, 17 series are appropriate for assessment of portion sizes as a measurement aid intended for use in dietary survey among children. The participants had the biggest issues in estimating portion sizes for banana (29,3%) grits (22,8%), hot dogs (20,3%) and regular yoghurt (19,1%). More research will attempt to establish the reasons for unsuccessful evaluation of the most poorly estimated foods and validation will be repeated.
