Title: Testing the Spanish Translation of the EFNEP Food and Physical Activity

Questionnaire: Phase Two

Washington State University

Impacts:

EFNEP reaches adults in every state and all U.S. territories so it is important that assessment tools

accurately measure behavior changes. The Food and Physical Activity Questionnaire (FPAQ)

behavioral assessment tool has been completed and is ready for use by both EFNEP and any

program that provide nutrition education to low-income adults. The final version of the FPAQ has

been integrated into the EFNEP national electronic data collection system for use in the new

EFNEP Adult Questionnaire that will be launched in October of 2020 for use beginning federal

fiscal year 2021.

Activities:

The Food and Physical Activity Questionnaire (FPAQ) will engage in additional work to create

impact statement templates that can be used by states to share the results gleaned from the tool’s

use. A Spanish version of the tool has been created and research to support its efficacy is

underway. Also, a version that can be used as a retrospective pre-test (as opposed to the current

pre-/post- test) is undergoing cognitive testing to ensure that the version presented is understood by

the target audience.

ASA24 dietary assessment tool: EFNEP adults complete 24-hour diet recalls. Pilot data

(qualitative and quantitative) from the use of this method, which is new to EFNEP has been

compiled and will be analyzed in the upcoming year, and the Michigan’s EFNEP program has

begun use of an online training to prepare for its use in collecting their 24-hour recalls.

Milestones: The year of 2020 will be an exception in many ways, notably the ability to carry on

long-term work during challenging times. We were able to have a mid-year and annual meeting

virtually and all work groups continued meeting. New members were recruited.
