The Gastrointestinal and Gastroesophageal Reflux (GIGER) Scale for Infants and Toddlers

The GIGER Scale for Infants and Toddlers is a 36-item parent-report questionnaire about symptoms of gastrointestinal distress and gastroesophageal reflux for children under 2 years old. In this study, we present the development of the GIGER Scale and evidence of adequate psychometric properties, including acceptable internal consistency reliability, convergent validity with existing assessments, and known-groups validity.
