背景：肥胖乃熱量囤積之結果，高熱量飲食行為及靜態生活行為都會造成身體熱量囤積。目的：本文目的在於發展與測試兒童熱量儲存行為量表。方法：原始兒童熱量儲存行為量表包含11個問項的高熱量飲食行為，及6個問項的靜態生活行為次量表。共收371個國小兒童為研究對象，資料以驗證性因素分析（confi rmatory factor analysis）與已知群組效度（known-group validity）進行量表效度分析；並以內部一致性與再測信度進行量表信度分析。結果：驗證性因素分析結果顯示，兒童熱量儲存行為量表包含高熱量飲食行為（10個問項）及靜態生活行為（4個問項）兩面向。驗證性因素分析模式指標為卡方值（χ2） = 268.22，自由度（df）= 74, p < .001，規範適配指標（normed fi t index） =.91，非規範適配指標（nonnormed fi t index）= .92，Cronbach’s α與再測信度分別為.81及.86。體重過重或肥胖兒 的兒童熱量儲存行為量表得分高於體重不足或正常體重者，並達統計上顯著差異（z = 3.81, p < .001）。結論／實務應用：兒童熱量儲存行為量表具良好信效度，應用兒童熱量儲存行為量表，可使健康照護者更全面性的評估兒童熱量儲存相關行為。

Background: Obesity is the consequence of energy retention due to energy-dense food intake (E-intake behavior) and sedentary behavior (S-behavior). Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and psychometrically test the Energy Retention Behavior Scale for Children (ERB-C scale). Methods: The ERB-C scale was developed, consisting of an 11-item E-intake behavior subscale and a six-item S-behavior subscale. Confirmatory factor analysis and known-group validity were conducted on 371 children to examine the construct validity of this scale, and internal consistency and testYretest reliability were used to examine its reliability. Results: Confirmatory factor analysis indicates that the ERB-C scale, including its subscales of E-intake behavior (10 items) and S-behavior (four items), fits the data well. The fit indices were as follows: 22 = 268.22, df = 74, p G .001, normed fit index = .91, and nonnormed fit index = .92. The Cronbach’s " and testYretest reliability of the ERB-C scale were .81 and .86, respectively. The mean ERB-C scale score for overweight/obese children was significantly higher than for underweight/normalweight children (z = 3.81, p G .001). Conclusions/Implications for Practice: TheERB-Cscale showed satisfactory validity and reliability. This scale may help health professionals comprehensively assess the energy retention behavior of children.
