Abstract
This study aimed to develop and validate an online tool to assess perceived portion size norms of discretionary foods. An online image-series tool of 15 common discretionary foods was developed, with eight portion size options. A randomized-crossover design was used with adult consumers (18–65 years) reporting perceived portion size norms twice: once using food images and again using real food portions. Cross-classification showed >90% of selections matched in the same or adjacent portion size. The intra-class correlation (ICC) was 0.85, demonstrating good agreement. The online tool shows good agreement with real food portions and is valuable for future studies.
