| Abstract: | Difficulty with feeding increases in older people as the condition of dementia progresses (Watson 1997a). The Edinburgh Feeding Evaluation in Dementia Scale #2 (EdFED #2) has been designed to measure the level of feeding difficulty associated with dementia, and its scale properties, internal consistency (Watson 1996) and some aspects of the validity have previously been reported (Watson 1997b; Watson et al. 2001). The present report describes the inter- and intra-rater reliability of the EdFED #2. |
