TABLE 1.

Psychometric test results (EFA, CFA, Cronbach’s α, and ICC) of a 27-item, 5-factor Toddler Feeding Behavior Questionnaire¹

Feeding subscale	Items	EFA factor loadings	Cronbach’s α	Test-retest reliability (ICC)
	n
Responsive	8	0.49–0.77	0.79	0.79
Forceful	4	0.45–0.73	0.64	0.62
Restrictive	5	0.61–0.77	0.76	0.83
Indulgent	6	0.53–0.74	0.74	0.88
Uninvolved	4	0.81–0.87	0.87	0.57

¹CFA assessed the overall goodness of fit of the 5-factor solution (root mean square error of approximation = 0.047; comparative fit index = 0.90; standardized root mean square residual = 0.062); Cronbach’s α assessed the internal consistency reliability of the feeding subscales; EFA assessed individual factor loadings; ICC assessed the test-retest reliability of the feeding subscales among a subsample (n = 33) of the 297 participants. CFA, confirmatory factor analysis; EFA, exploratory factor analysis; ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient.
