Cultural adaptation and validation of the short food literacy questionnaire (SFLQ) for adults in Lebanon
The SFLQ demonstrated strong internal consistency, indicating that it is a reliable tool for both research and clinical use. Expanding validation efforts to include a broader Arabic-speaking population, particularly individuals without internet access, would further strengthen the tool's applicability and cultural relevance across diverse contexts in the Arab world.
