Are you a stroke survivor? Recruitment still open for AES validation study

National #strokeweek this week and I am still recruiting participants for my Nutrition and Dietetics Honours project.

 

***

 

To develop better programs to support #strokesurvivors to eat well, we need to be able to measure your food intake. We are looking for #stroke survivors to test the Australian Eating Survey to ensure it works for you!

 

What will you be asked to do?

1. Complete the online Australian Eating Survey (120 questions about the foods you usually eat). This takes 30-40 minutes.

2. Complete a 3-day Weighed Food Record – you will measure and write down everything you eat or drink for 3 days.

 

We will compare the survey and the food record and see if they are the same or different – this will tell us whether the survey works for stroke survivors.

 

To be eligible for this study, you must be an Australian adult aged 18 years or older who has experienced a stroke. You must live in the community and not in supported living environments such as rehabilitation or residential aged care facilities.
