Development and validation of Transtheoretical model-based questionnaire on micronutrients for adolescents: Psychometric properties.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundThe Transtheoretical model (TTM) is one of the most commonly used theories in assessing behavioral change and designing more effective interventions. The study aimed to develop and validate a questionnaire based on the TTM to assess the behavioral change of adolescent girls related to dietary micronutrient intake. MATERIALS AND
methodsA TTM-based questionnaire (Items 36) was validated through 150 adolescent girls aged 13-18 years. The questionnaire is made on four constructs: stages of change, processes of change, self-efficacy, and decision balance. The content validity and face validity were assessed by expert panels and participants, respectively. The confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) were used to test construct validity. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) were used to analyze the internal consistency and stability of the questionnaires.
resultsResults showed that all content validity Index values of items in questionnaires were within the range (0.8-1). Based on face validity results, most of the items were clear, easy, and understood by participants. The CFA results included a comparative factor index of 0.99 for all constructs; a goodness of fit index ranging from 0.88 to 0.951, and a root mean square error of approximation ranging from 0.039-0.069, suggesting good model fit indices. The reliability analysis with Cronbach's alpha of 0.737-0.953 and ICCs of 0.737-0.845 was acceptable.
conclusionThese psychometric analysis results provided evidence for the appropriateness, reliability, and validity of the developed questionnaire. Hence, this questionnaire may help to develop customized nutrition intervention programs based on behavioral changes in the context of micronutrient intake.
