N2 - Assessment of dietary intake is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition education in risk reduction. Dietary intake can be assessed by self-report, objective physiological measures or corroborative information. The four self-report methods are recalls, food records, food frequency questionnaires and food histories. Validation of these self-report methods may involve comparison with other self-report data, corroboration from other individuals, or objective laboratory tests. This paper discusses the advantages and weaknessess of each of these methods for patient education researchers, coordinators, and counselors.
