| Résumé : | Background Policies that support healthy nutrition and physical activity environments in early care and education (ECE) settings can help promote healthy weight in children. State child care licensing regulations are a critical mechanism for setting such policies. Objectives To develop a research instrument to evaluate the promotion of healthy child weight in state child care licensing regulations and assess the strength of the regulations over time. Design For measure development, systematic reviews of evidence on the impact of healthy weight strategies relevant to the ECE environment were combined with expert stakeholder input to identify 15 healthy weight promotion policy standards and a coding tool to measure the strength and comprehensiveness of regulatory language matching these standards. For assessing the strength of regulations, the coding tool was applied to child care regulations nationwide in 2016 and again in 2020. Subjects/setting Child care licensing regulations in 2016 and 2020 for all 50 US states plus Washington DC. Outcome measures Strength and comprehensiveness scores for state licensing regulations. Statistical analyses Intraclass correlation coefficients were calculated to estimate interrater reliability of the coding tool. Paired t tests were used to compare scores within states from 2016 to 2020. Results Interrater reliability for the coding tool had intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.81 for strength and 0.87 for comprehensiveness scores. Strength and comprehensiveness of states? healthy weight promotion policies increased significantly over time (P |
