Diet and Nutrition Survey of Infants and Young Children in Scotland, 2011
A report providing detailed information of food consumption and nutrient intakes of infants and young children (4 to 18 months) in Scotland.
References and endnotes
1. Only 27 parents in Scotland opted out of the survey (20 before fieldwork started and seven during fieldwork). Due to the small number it is not possible to compare the profile of these opting out parents to the Scottish population.
2. As individuals within the HS boost sample living in Scotland (7) were not selected from CB records they could not be included in the comparisons to Scottish population data derived from CB records. They were, however, included in the dietary analysis present throughout this report, as application of the final weighting factors (see Appendix B for an explanation of the weighting factors) ensured the combined core and HS boost sample was representative of the Scottish population.
