Purpose: Canada’s multicultural population poses challenges for culturally competent nutrition research and practice. In this qualitative study, the cultural relevance of a widely used semiquantitative fruit and vegetable food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was examined among convenience samples of adults from Toronto’s Cantonese-, Mandarin-, Portuguese-, and Vietnamesespeaking communities. Methods: Eighty-nine participants were recruited through community-based organizations, programs, and advertisements to participate in semi-structured interviews moderated in their native language. Data from the interviews were translated into English and transcribed for analysis using the constant comparative approach. Results: Four main themes emerged from the analysis: the cultural relevance of the foods listed on the FFQ, words with multiple meanings, the need for culturally appropriate portionsize prompts, and the telephone survey as a Western concept. Conclusions: This research highlights the importance of investing resources to develop culturally relevant dietary assessment tools that ensure dietary assessment accuracy and, more important, reduce ethnocentric biases in food and nutrition research and practice. The transferability of findings must be established through further research.

The purpose of this study is to prepare a multiple-choice achievement test with high reliability and validity for the “Let’s Solve the Puzzle of Our Body” unit. For this purpose, a multiple choice achievement test consisting of 46 items was applied to 178 fifth grade students in total. As a result of the test and material analysis performed during the test development process, difficulty, distinctiveness, and item-total correlation coefficients of the materials were calculated. For the validity study, a table of specifications was prepared and the Content Validity Index (CVI) was found to be 0.95 by taking an expert opinion. As a result of the analysis, 8 items were removed from the test and the KR-20 reliability coefficient of the final test consisting of 38 items was calculated as 0.87. As a result of the item analyses, while item difficulty indices were valued between 0.30 and 0.74, item distinctiveness indeces were valued between 0.31 and 0.71. The average difficulty of the test was calculated as moderate (0.56) and its distinctiveness was calculated as very good (0.49).
