Abstract：
BACKGROUND: The Spanish Yale Food Addiction Scale for Children (S-YFAS-C) scale is the first tool adapted to Spanish to evaluate food addiction (FA) in the paediatric population. The aim of this study is to preliminarily evaluate the degree of FA in a non-clinical pilot paediatric population.
METHODS: A transversal observational study was performed on a convenience sample comprised of boys and girls aged 9 to 12 (4th to 6th year primary school). The main outcome measures were evaluation of FA (S-YFAS-C scale), child feeding attitudes (ChEAT scale) and evaluation of body image (CDRS scale). Moreover, sociodemographic and anthropometric data were collected. A descriptive and bivariate analysis of the main characteristics of subjects and outcome measures was performed.
RESULTS: A total of 21 boys and 24 girls were preliminarily evaluated and the minimum and maximum values obtained were for age (9.48-12.33), weight in kilograms (26.6-64.5), height in centimetres (131-163), BMI (14.2-27.9) and BMI Z-score (-1.36-2.66). The average number of FA symptoms measured with the S-YFAS-C scale is 1.67 ± 1.45 (range 0-7). A total of 20% of the sample shows three or more symptoms for FA, risk of developing a food disorder and distortion of the body image. Moreover, statistically significant differences were observed between desired body image in boys and girls (P = 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: The S-YFAS-C scale enables evaluating food addiction in Spanish-speaking boys and girls. The data obtained in regard to quantifying symptoms are similar compared to the original scale (S-YFAS-C: 1.67 ± 1.45 vs. YFAS-C: 2 ± 1.81). The option to score the counting of symptoms is the most sensitive measure to evaluate subclinical food behaviours.

摘要：
背景：西班牙耶鲁儿童食物成瘾量表（S-YFAS-C）量表是第一个适用于西班牙的工具，用于评估儿科人群的食物成瘾（FA）。这项研究的目的是初步评估非临床试点儿科人群的FA程度。
方法：对由9至12岁（小学4至6年）的男孩和女孩组成的便利样本进行了横向观察性研究。主要结局指标为FA评估（S-YFAS-C量表），儿童喂养态度(ChEAT量表)和身体图像评价(CDRS量表)。此外，收集社会人口统计学和人体测量数据。对受试者的主要特征和结局指标进行了描述性和双变量分析。
结果：对21名男孩和24名女孩进行了初步评估，得出的最小值和最大值为年龄（9.48-12.33），公斤体重（26.6-64.5），身高，厘米（131-163），BMI（14.2-27.9）和BMIZ评分（-1.36-2.66）。用S-YFAS-C量表测量的FA症状的平均数为1.67±1.45(范围0-7)。总共有20%的样本表现出三种或更多的FA症状，发生食物紊乱和身体形象扭曲的风险。此外，男孩和女孩期望的身体形象之间存在统计学上的显着差异（P=0.001）。
结论：S-YFAS-C量表可以评估说西班牙语的男孩和女孩的食物成瘾。与原始量表相比，在量化症状方面获得的数据相似（S-YFAS-C：1.67±1.45vs.YFAS-C:2±1.81)。对症状计数进行评分是评估亚临床食物行为的最敏感措施。西班牙耶鲁儿童食品成瘾量表（S-YFAS-C）是第一个适用于西班牙语的工具，用于评估儿科人群的食品成瘾（FA）。这项研究的目的是初步评估非临床试点儿科人群的FA程度。对21名男孩和24名女孩进行了初步评估，其中20％的样本显示出FA的三种或三种以上症状，发生食物紊乱和身体形象扭曲的风险。S-YFAS-C量表可以评估说西班牙语的男孩和女孩的食物成瘾。与原始量表相比，关于量化症状获得的数据相似。
