1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveDevelop and test validity and reliability of the Food Literacy Assessment Tool (FLitT) in adults with low income.

designFace validity was tested using cognitive interviews, content validity using expert review, and internal consistency reliability and test-retest reliability based on 2 administrations of the survey.

settingUrban choice food pantry in Cincinnati, OH.

participantsThere were 10 and 98 adults with low income for the cognitive interview and survey, respectively VARIABLES MEASURED: Knowledge, self-efficacy, and behavior required to plan and manage, select, prepare, and eat in relation to food. ANALYSIS: Cronbach α and Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 for internal consistency reliability and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for test-retest reliability.

resultsCognitive interviews and expert feedback suggested modifications to improve the clarity of FLitT and offer more response options. Testing shows acceptable internal consistency in self-efficacy (Cronbach α = 0.92) and behavior (Cronbach α = 0.90) but not in knowledge (Kuder-Richardson Formula 20 = 0.51). The FLitT shows acceptable test-retest reliability for knowledge (ICC = 0.84), self-efficacy (ICC = 0.70), and behavior (ICC = 0.93). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: The FLitT was developed and tested for face and content validity and internal and test-retest reliability in adults with low income. Additional research is needed to conduct a second round of face validity and test construct validity using factor analysis with a larger size.
