Evaluation of the Web-Based Food Frequency Questionnaire Developed for the European Longitudinal Study of Pregnancy and Childhood Background The validation of online dietary assessment instruments is important in the diet evaluation in the ELSPAC study. Completing the food diary is time-consuming and children are often unfamiliar with the standard portion sizes which could mean an error associated with self-reported intakes; therefore, besides a food frequency questionnaire and a 24-hour recall, photographic food records were used to collect the data, as well.
