Internal consistency- Cronbach’s α = .88 for full scale, Cronbach’s α = .77–.91 for all subscales. Test-retest – r = .91 for full scale, r = .77–.88 for all subscales.

Content validity with 9 professionals – scale level CVI = .90 for clarity and .93 for relevance. Content validated with 19 parents using cognitive interviews [39]. Construct validity – Concurrent validity with the I-GERQ-R (r = .57; p < .001) and IGSQ (r = .5; p < .001). Known-groups validity- infants with feeding problems scored significantly higher than those without for full scale (p < .001) and all subscales (p < .05).
