Summary

This tool is used by the School-Based Nutrition Monitoring (SBNM) Project funded by the CDC and USDA. The aim of the project was to design, develop, and evaluate the psychometric properties of surveillance tools to be used in elementary, middle, and high schools. The tool was specifically developed to assess nutrition-related behaviors, attitudes, and knowledge and some physical activity behaviors for children at middle and high school levels. The tool was validated in 2003.
