To estimate calcium (mg), the model is: E (Dietary Factor).25 = b0 + b1NFG1P1 + b2NFG2P2 + ... + b20NFG20P20

For men: Quarter root of calcium (mgs) = 4.482732 + 0.000318 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for Cooked cereals ) + 0.006716 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for High-fiber Cereal) + ... + 0.014186 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for Cheese)

For women: Quarter root of calcium (mgs) = 4.155762 + 0.000484 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for Cooked cereals ) + 0.006744 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for High-fiber Cereal) + ... + 0.015442 (Daily Frequency * Gender/Age Specific Portion Size per Mention for Cheese)

Personnel and Training Required

The interviewer must be trained to conduct personal interviews with individuals from the general population. The interviewer must be trained and found to be competent (i.e., tested by an expert) at the completion of personal interviews. The interviewer should be trained to prompt respondents further if a "don’t know" response is provided. These questions can be administered using multiple modes (e.g., paper-and-pencil and computer-assisted interviews).

Equipment Needs

Although the source instrument was developed to be administered by computer, the PhenX Working Group acknowledges that these questions can be administered in a noncomputerized format (i.e., paper-and-pencil instrument). Computer software is necessary to develop computer-assisted instruments. The interviewer will require a laptop or handheld computer to administer a computer-assisted questionnaire.
