Food stores across Baltimore City were assessed using the Healthy Food Availability Index-Brief (HFAI-B) tool and resulting HFAI-B score. Reliability was measured using the Pearson correlation for the HFAI-B score, and Cohen's Kappa for other binary and categorical store parameters. All items included in the HFAI-B score had high inter-rater and test-retest reliability. The Pearson Correlation coefficient for HFAI-B scores between and within observers was very high. The HFAI-B is a reliable measure to assess the availability of healthy foods in food stores. 收起
