A New Portion Size Estimation Aid for Wedge-Shaped Foods

Journal of the American Dietetic Association, 2006
Dietary surveys are important for understanding food consumption patterns in national studies, clinical research, and patient counseling. Portion size estimation aids usually increase accuracy of consumers' reports of the amount of food they ate in dietary surveys. However, wedge-shaped foods (eg, pie, cake, and pizza) pose special problems; this shape

Accuracy of Food Portion Size Estimations By Bulimic Subjects

Journal of the American Dietetic Association, 1995
Abstract Dietary assessment is an integral component of the determination of medical, nutritional and educational needs of bulimic individuals. The ability to accurately assess portion size is an important aspect of dietary assessment, but may be altered in bulimics due to changes in visual perception and food beliefs.

Improving accuracy of portion‐size estimations through a stimulus equivalence paradigm

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2014
The prevalence of obesity continues to increase in the United States (Gordon‐Larsen, The, & Adair, 2010). Obesity can be attributed, in part, to overconsumption of energy‐dense foods. Given that overeating plays a role in the development of obesity, interventions that teach individuals to identify and consume appropriate portion sizes are warranted.
