Abstract:
Objective To translate the Eating Behaviors Assessment for Obesity(EBA-O)and test its reliability and validity for providing an effective tool for brief and rapid clinical assessment of dietary behavior in obese patients.Methods The Chinese version of EBA-O was developed by Brislin's translation model for translation,back translation,cultural adaptation,and pilot investigation.Using convenience sampling method,200 obese patients who were admitted to the inpatient ward of the Weight Loss Center of a tertiary hospital in Beijing from April to June 2023 and planned to undergo weight loss metabolic surgery were selected as the research participants to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of EBA-O.Results The Chinese version of EBA-O includes 4 dimensions,with a total of 17 items.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale is 0.886;the Cronbach's αcoefficients of the dimensions are 0.770～0.866;the test-retest reliability of the scale is 0.881.The content validity index of the scale level is 0.980,and the content validity indexes of item level were 0.889～1.000.Totally 4 common factors were extracted through exploratory factor analysis,with a cumulative variance of 66.363％.Conclusion The Chinese version of EBA-O has good reliability and validity,and it can be used as a tool to evaluate the dietary behavior of obese patients undergoing weight loss metabolic surgery.
