Research on dietary intake assessment methods in this vulnerable population is lacking. The objectives of this study were to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and compare the nutrient intakes of two technology-based dietary assessment methods in children with-and-without developmental disabilities. This cross-sectional feasibility study was an added aim to a larger pilot study. Children (n = 12; 8\u201318 years) diagnosed with spina bifida, Down syndrome, or without disability were recruited from the larger study sample, stratified by diagnosis. Participants were asked to complete six days of a mobile food record (mFR\u2122), a 24-h dietary recall via FaceTime\u00ae (24 HR-FT), and a post-study survey. Analysis included descriptive statistics for survey results and a paired samples t-test for nutrient intakes. All participants successfully completed six days of dietary assessment using both methods and acceptability was high. Energy (kcal) and protein (g) intake was significantly higher for the mFR\u2122 as compared to the 24 HR-FT (p = 0.041; p = 0.014, respectively). Each method had strengths and weaknesses. The two technology-based dietary assessment tools were well accepted and when combined could increase accuracy of self-reported dietary assessment in children with-and-without disability.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu10101482","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,12]],"date-time":"2018-10-12T02:58:04Z","timestamp":1539313084000},"page":"1482","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Technology-Based Dietary Assessment in Youth with and Without Developmental Disabilities"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6589-3282","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michele","family":"Polfuss","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, College of Nursing, Milwaukee, WI 53211, USA"},{"name":"Children\u2019s Hospital of Wisconsin, Department of Nursing Research, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Moosreiner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical College of Wisconsin-Clinical and Translational Science Institute, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7517-787X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carol J.","family":"Boushey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Epidemiology Program, University of Hawaii Cancer Center, Honolulu, HI 96789, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2909-7323","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edward J.","family":"Delp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3863-3220","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fengqing","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"185","DOI":"10.1038\/s41430-017-0029-2","article-title":"The validity of dietary assessment methods to accurately measure energy intake in children and adolescents who are overweight or obese: A systematic review","volume":"72","author":"Walker","year":"2017","journal-title":"Eur.
