“…This was supported by the high agreement among the non-trained assessors using the DIMS method to estimate nutrient intake. This finding is in line with other studies reporting high inter-assessor reliability between nontrained assessors analysing food intake using photographic methods (10,15) . Surprisingly, it has also been reported that the performance of non-trained assessors was comparable to their trained counterparts (16) .…”

ObjectiveThe present study tested the validity of a digital image-capture measure of food consumption suitable for use in busy school cafeterias.DesignLunches were photographed pre- and post-consumption, and food items were weighed pre- and post-consumption for comparison.SettingA small research team recorded children’s lunchtime consumption in one primary and one secondary school over seven working days.ParticipantsA primary-school sample of 121 children from North Wales and a secondary-school sample of 124 children from the West Midlands, UK, were utilised. Nineteen children were excluded because of incomplete data, leaving a final sample of 239 participants.ResultsResults indicated that (i) consumption estimates based on images were accurate, yielding only small differences between the weight- and image-based judgements (median bias=0·15–1·64 g, equating to 0·45–3·42 % of consumed weight) and (ii) good levels of inter-rater agreement were achieved, ranging from moderate to near perfect (Cohen’sκ=0·535–0·819). This confirmed that consumption estimates derived from digital images were accurate and could be used in lieu of objective weighed measures.ConclusionsOur protocol minimised disruption to daily lunchtime routine, kept the attrition low, and enabled better agreement between measures and raters than was the case in the existing literature. Accurate measurements are a necessary tool for all those engaged in nutrition research, intervention evaluation, prevention and public health work. We conclude that our simple and practical method of assessment could be used with children across a range of settings, ages and lunch types.

“…Although computer-based portion judgments are predictive of real food intake 49,50 , it could be instructive to explore how temporal discounting moderates real food intake in at varying IMI lengths. One possible issue is that obese and overweight individuals are shown to under-report portion sizes 51,52 .…”

Obese and overweight individuals are less sensitive to information about meal times in portion-size judgements

These results are the first to demonstrate that temporal discounting operates in planning from one meal to the next, and is more prevalent in obese and overweight, relative to lean individuals. Participants with a high BMI discounted concerns about potential future fullness and hunger in the IMI. Our observations might begin to explain associations between obesity and irregular meal timings or help to form the basis for a targeted intervention that promotes future thinking in meal planning.
