ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of the study was to assess whether the modified Bristol Stool Form Scale (m-BSFS) is reliable, valid and user-friendly to use by parents, grandparents, and day childcare employees to evaluate stool consistency in toilet and nontoilet-trained toddlers in the Netherlands. Study design: Translation to Dutch and validity of the m-BSFS (scoring 32 general stool pictures) for 1 to 3 year old toddlers (n = 89) was evaluated by parents, grandparents, and day childcare employees. A subgroup of participants scored an additional 7 pictures of stools in a diaper to validate the m-BSFS for non-toilet-trained toddlers (n = 16). To determine inter-rater reliability, 2-way random effects single-rater intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)_consistency was used. Intra-rater reliability was measured by Cohen kappa (κ) by rating the same pictures in random order twice, with at least 1 week between the first and second scoring. Results: Inter- and intra-rater reliability of the m-BSFS were above recommended minimal standards of 0.61 for the 32 general stool pictures as well as for the 7 pictures of stools in a diaper. ICC_consistency for the general stool pictures of the first and second ratings were 0.71 (n = 89) and 0.79 (n = 77), respectively, with a κ of 0.71 (n = 77). ICC_consistency for the stools in diaper pictures of the first and second ratings were 0.93 (n = 16) and 0.93 (n = 15), respectively, with a κ of 0.77 (n = 15). Conclusions: The m-BSFS is reliable, valid and user-friendly to use by Dutch-speaking parents, grandparents, and day childcare workers to evaluate stool consistency in both toilet- and nontoilet-trained toddlers in the Netherlands.
