2.3.2 PedsQLTM 3.0 EoE Module for teens and
parent reports
The PedsQL 3.0 EoE Module consists of 3 versions for parents and
children from 5–7 (young child), 8–12 (child), and 13–18 years
(teens), and one for parents of children from 2 to 4 years
(toddler).7 The PedsQL EoE Module for teens and parent
reports encompasses 8 dimensions: Symptoms I (6 items); Symptoms II (4
items); Treatment (5 items); Worry (6 items); Communication (5 items);
Food and Eating (4 items); Food Feelings (3 items) and Feeding Tube (2
items, this dimension not scored). The PedsQL™ 3.0 EoE module is a
5-point Likert scale from 0 (Never a problem) to 4 (Almost always a
problem). Scores are linearly transformed to a 0 to 100 scale (0=100,
1=75, 2=50, 3=25, 4=0). Scale scores are based on sum of the responses
to each item divided by the number of items. Higher scores indicate
fewer problems. Feeding Tube Scale is included only for clinical
purposes and is not included in the quantitative analyses.
