Résumé

The need for short and validated questionnaires to evaluate dietary patterns (DPs) and mental distress in clinical and research settings is increasing. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Food-Mood Questionnaire (FMQ) to assess DPs in relation to mental distress. A standard validation protocol that included item development, pilot-testing, test-retesting, and a series of statistical validation analyses was used. Content, face, internal, construct and external validity as well as reliability were confirmed. Content and face validity were evaluated qualitatively. Principal component analysis (PCA) for construct validity generated five sub-scales which reflected internal consistency (Cronbach's The FMQ is a validated and a reliable tool with many potential applications that could be used with prophylactic and therapeutic approaches.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
The need for short and validated questionnaires to evaluate dietary patterns (DPs) and mental distress in clinical and research settings is increasing.
AIM OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Food-Mood Questionnaire (FMQ) to assess DPs in relation to mental distress.
METHOD METHODS
A standard validation protocol that included item development, pilot-testing, test-retesting, and a series of statistical validation analyses was used. Content, face, internal, construct and external validity as well as reliability were confirmed. Content and face validity were evaluated qualitatively.
RESULTS RESULTS
Principal component analysis (PCA) for construct validity generated five sub-scales which reflected internal consistency (Cronbach's
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
The FMQ is a validated and a reliable tool with many potential applications that could be used with prophylactic and therapeutic approaches.
