But it is not known how reported food intakes by children using a Web-based version of a food frequency questionnaire compare on a paper-based version of the same questionnaire. This research used data that was collected from same the group of pre-adolescents. Using two versions of the same food frequency questionnaire, this analysis compares differences in reported intake between the two versions of instruments. This research provides a comparison of dietary eat patterns between a paper-based dietary questionnaire and a web-based of£¿£¿£¿ the same dietary questionnaire at elementary school of the 4th grade students. A comparison two assessment dada£¿£¿£¿ was assessed by comparing food items selected on the questionnaire with food items reported from a single 24-hour recall covering the same reference period. To identify and describe the major dietary eating patterns in the£¿£¿£¿ WT Cheney Elementary School and South Wood Elementary of the 4th grade students in Pine Bluff Arkansas.£¿£¿£¿ Fourth-grade student volunteers (N=87). The two dietary questionnaires of the instrument were first compared£¿£¿£¿ for all participants using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with the instruments as the grouping variable. Multiple£¿£¿£¿ regression analysis and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was also used to determine differences between instrument£¿£¿£¿ versions while controlling for differences related to participant. The mean weekly reported servings did not vary significantly between the two paper dietary questionnaires and web-based dietary questionnaire of the£¿£¿£¿ questionnaire. However, the web-based questionnaire produced lower intake estimates (after adjustment for between-school differences) for all of the food groupings. In summary, while the use of technology did not resolve£¿£¿£¿ reporting issues that are well known with children and the paper dietary assessment instrument questionnaire method,£¿£¿£¿ the potential advantages offered by technology-based methods merit continued exploration in future studies %U https://www.gratisoa.org/journals/index.php/GJBS/article/view/22
