Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to develop and evaluate the ‘Fit for Future’ (F4F) Module for the weight management programme among Malaysian adults. Methods: Two different forms of the questionnaire were designed. One form (32 questions) determined content validity, while another form (38 questions) determined inter-item and test-retest reliabilities. Results: Contents of the module were improvised accordingly as experts provided qualitative feedback. The CVIs, Cronbach’s alpha and intraclass-correlation coefficient (ICC) recorded values of 0.80 and higher, 0.80-0.97 and 0.61-0.91, respectively. Conclusion: This study showed that the developed F4F Module has good content validity and reliability and helps Malaysian adults manage weight.
