Revisions may have improved the validity and reliability. We therefore recommend either version for use to support low-income schools in their efforts to assess needs, evaluate progress, and create action plans; and to supply high-quality, aggregable data for large-scale analysis. Additional testing is recommended to validate the revised version, increase generalizability, and determine sensitivity to detect change over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/chi.2021.0148","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,22]],"date-time":"2021-12-22T11:41:58Z","timestamp":1640173318000},"page":"383-398","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Validity and Reliability of a Site-Level Assessment Questionnaire to Assess Nutrition and Physical Activity Practices in Schools"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7506-0740","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carolyn D.","family":"Rider","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Janice","family":"Kao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sridharshi C.","family":"Hewawitharana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christina M.","family":"Becker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amanda","family":"Linares","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2745-1077","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gail","family":"Woodward-Lopez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Nutrition Policy Institute, University of California, Sacramento, CA, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_2","first-page":"1","article-title":"Recommended community strategies and measurements to prevent obesity in the United States: Implementation and measurement guide","volume":"58","author":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention","year":"2009","unstructured":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
