Abstract:

This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of self-rated diet quality of adolescent and to identify the reasons for not considering it very good/good; to calculate the overall score and each component of the Brazilian Healthy Eating Index - Revised (BHEI-R) according to the self-assessment categories. A cross-sectional population-based study with stratified clustered two-stage sampling, conducted in Campinas, SP. A total of 891 adolescents were analyzed. The prevalence of self-assessment of diet quality was 57.3% as very good/good, 34.6% as regular and 8.1% as poor/very poor. Self-assessment as regular or poor was associated with the consumption of sweets, snacks/cookies (10-14 years) and fast food (15-19 years). For those who were classified as having poor diet quality (1st tercile of the BHEI-R scores), 52.5% considered the diet to be very good/good and only 13.1% as poor/very poor. The BHEI-R score was significantly lower in those who thought the diet was bad (50.0 points), compared to those who said very good/good (55.4 points). Those who considered bad eating had lower intakes of fruits, whole grains, and higher intakes of solid fats and sugars. The findings reveal incoherence in the self-assessment of diet quality in relation to the unsatisfactory scores observed.
