Abstract

Objective: To identify the tools used to assess eating behaviors in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and summarize their distribution, citation rates, journal publication, JCR scores, and psychometric properties.

Methods: A literature review was conducted to identify studies on eating behavior in individuals with ASD. The search included various descriptors and combinations of keywords in databases such as Medline/PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, SciELO, and Web of Science. The studies were filtered to focus on articles published in the last five years. Thirty-seven relevant studies were identified and analyzed to summarize the tools used, their distribution in the literature, citation rates, and psychometric properties.

Results: Thirty-seven relevant studies were identified. The Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders published the most studies (5). The Brief Autism Mealtime Behavior Inventory (BAMBI) was the most frequently used instrument, appearing in 15 studies, followed by the Behavioral Pediatrics Feeding Assessment Scale (BPFAS) in 8 studies. Both instruments demonstrated solid psychometric properties, with BAMBI showing good internal consistency (α = 0.88) and BPFAS a Cronbach's alpha of 0.82.

Conclusion: Most of the instruments used in studies on eating behavior in individuals with ASD demonstrate satisfactory psychometric properties. BAMBI and BPFAS stand out for their widespread use but are limited to covering only specific age ranges.

自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）患者饮食行为研究工具。

目的：确定用于评估自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）患者饮食行为的工具，并总结其分布、被引率、期刊发表、JCR评分和心理测量学特征。方法：对ASD患者饮食行为的相关研究进行文献回顾。搜索包括Medline/PubMed、Science Direct、Scopus、SciELO和Web of Science等数据库中的各种描述符和关键字组合。这些研究经过筛选，集中在最近五年发表的文章上。对37项相关研究进行了识别和分析，总结了使用的工具、它们在文献中的分布、被引率和心理测量学性质。结果：共纳入37项相关研究。《自闭症与发育障碍杂志》（Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders）发表的研究最多(5)，其中使用频率最高的工具是《简短自闭症进餐行为量表》（BAMBI），出现在15项研究中，其次是《行为儿科喂养评估量表》（BPFAS），出现在8项研究中。两种工具均表现出坚实的心理测量特性，BAMBI具有良好的内部一致性（α = 0.88）， BPFAS具有0.82的Cronbach's α。结论：大多数用于研究ASD患者饮食行为的工具显示出令人满意的心理测量特性。BAMBI和BPFAS因其广泛使用而脱颖而出，但仅限于覆盖特定的年龄范围。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders seeks to advance theoretical and applied research as well as examine and evaluate clinical diagnoses and treatments for autism and related disabilities. JADD encourages research submissions on the causes of ASDs and related disorders, including genetic, immunological, and environmental factors; diagnosis and assessment tools (e.g., for early detection as well as behavioral and communications characteristics); and prevention and treatment options. Sample topics include: Social responsiveness in young children with autism Advances in diagnosing and reporting autism Omega-3 fatty acids to treat autism symptoms Parental and child adherence to behavioral and medical treatments for autism Increasing independent task completion by students with autism spectrum disorder Does laughter differ in children with autism? Predicting ASD diagnosis and social impairment in younger siblings of children with autism The effects of psychotropic and nonpsychotropic medication with adolescents and adults with ASD Increasing independence for individuals with ASDs Group interventions to promote social skills in school-aged children with ASDs Standard diagnostic measures for ASDs Substance abuse in adults with autism Differentiating between ADHD and autism symptoms Social competence and social skills training and interventions for children with ASDs Therapeutic horseback riding and social functioning in children with autism Authors and readers of the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders include sch olars, researchers, professionals, policy makers, and graduate students from a broad range of cross-disciplines, including developmental, clinical child, and school psychology; pediatrics; psychiatry; education; social work and counseling; speech, communication, and physical therapy; medicine and neuroscience; and public health.
