This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nutrition education in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP-Ed) is designed to promote healthy eating behaviors in a low-income target population. In particular, SNAP-Ed programming encourages participants to increase consumption of fruit and vegetables and switch to lower fat dairy products. With funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), we independently evaluated eight programs that were selected as possible model SNAP-Ed programs. Our evaluations used robust research designs (experimental or quasi-experimental), similar primary outcome measures across the studies, and statistical analyses to account for clustering of participants within settings. These evaluations found a significant effect in outcomes for four programs: one in child care settings, two in elementary schools, and one in senior centers, suggesting that SNAP-Ed has the potential to be effective for some individuals across all age groups. Additionally, the study findings suggest that the maturity of the program (that is, experience in implementing the program over time) may make nutrition education more effective. Future studies should assess the longer-term effects on nutrition behaviors and sustainability of SNAP-Ed programs for preschool- and elementary-aged children, adults, and senior citizens.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, the effect of a multicomponent nutrition education program on dietary behaviors in elementary school-aged children was analyzed. Components involved were cooking, gardening, and general nutrition. Research questions were: 'Does nutrition education over a one-week program increase consumption of fruits and vegetables?', and 'Does nutrition education over a one-week program increase acceptance of novel foods?'. The hypothesis was: nutrition education administered in a one-week program will increase the consumption of fruits and vegetables, as well as increase willingness to try new foods. Data collection used repeated measures of two surveys: the Fruit-Vegetable-Fiber Screener and Food Neophobia Scale. Ten participants were enrolled, two were lost to follow up. A Paired T-test and Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test found one question on each survey achieved statistical significance (p

Download or read book The Effects of Nutrition Education and Exposure on Nutrition Knowledge and Self-efficacy in Elementary School Children in New Richmond, WI written by Kathryn F. Hoff and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focus has been put on healthy eating habits within the last few years due to an increase in obesity and other chronic diseases. Eating habits are formed at an early age, but nutrition education curriculum is not mandated in Wisconsin. Studies have shown a relationship between nutrition knowledge and self-efficacy, but little research exists on coupling nutrition education with nutrition exposure on the effect of nutrition knowledge and self-efficacy. The sample for this study was 11 third through fifth grade students at Starr Elementary in New Richmond, Wisconsin and was self-selecting. Three lessons were implemented using USDA's Serving Up MyPlate curriculum and preparation of a healthy snack in a before-school setting. Change was measured with a pre-/post-test evaluation based on lesson objectives and research questions. It was found that intervention provided change in student knowledge on nutrition and health outcomes, an increase in overall nutrition knowledge, improvements in identifying foods as nutrient dense vs. non-nutrient dense, and an increase in nutritional self-efficacy. Further research needs to be conducted with a larger, randomized sample and more lessons to determine the impact this type of education can provide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pediatric Food Preferences and Eating Behaviors reviews scientific works that investigate why children eat the way they do and whether eating behaviors are modifiable. The book begins with an introduction and historical perspective, and then delves into the development of flavor preferences, the role of repeated exposure and other types of learning, the effects of modeling eating behavior, picky eating, food neophobia, and food selectivity. Other sections discuss appetite regulation, the role of reward pathways, genetic contributions to eating behaviors, environmental influences, cognitive aspects, the development of loss of control eating, and food cognitions and nutrition knowledge. Written by leading researchers in the field, each chapter presents basic concepts and definitions, methodological issues pertaining to measurement, and the current state of scientific knowledge as well as directions for future research. Delivers an up-to-date synthesis of the research evidence addressing the development of children’s eating behaviors, from birth to age 18 years Provides an in-depth synthesis of the basic eating behaviors that contribute to consumption patterns Translates the complex and sometimes conflicting research in this area to clinical and public health practice Concludes each chapter with practical implications for practice Presents the limits of current knowledge and the next steps in scientific inquiry

Download or read book Intervening in Dietary Habits of African-American Children written by Jessica Blom-Hoffmann and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifelong dietary habits begin in childhood. Efforts to impact eating patterns, therefore, should be directed at young children. The school environment is ideal for teaching young children about improving healthy eating habits because large numbers of students can be targeted in a cost effective manner, and instruction is a natural part of the school day. Previous literature in the area of prevention and health promotion indicates that the provision of information alone does not effectuate positive behavioral change. Therefore, instructional practices should be supplemented with strategies that promote behavioral change. The purpose of this study was to conduct an outcome evaluation of a classroom-based nutrition education program with African-American students living in an urban environment. The Every Day, Lots of Ways: Interdisciplinary Nutrition Curriculum (EDLW; Pennsylvania Department of Education, 1996) was used to instruct students in nutrition education. The classroom lessons were reinforced with behavior change strategies during lunchtime for kindergartners and first graders. Additionally, caregiver newsletters were sent home to inform parents about nutrition messages that promote healthy life styles. Program acceptability, implementation integrity, and efficacy were examined. Students who participated in the school-based nutrition program demonstrated significant gains in knowledge relative to baseline and to control participants. Behavior change was more difficult to impact; however, interesting eating behavior changes were noted among kindergarten and first graders. The curriculum was acceptable to students, teachers, and parents. Teachers implemented the program with an acceptable degree of integrity. Finally, caregiver newsletters used to supplement the school-based activities were well received by the caregivers; however, they did not significantly impact caregivers' knowledge, nutrition attitudes or food preparation behaviors. Alternative strategies to include caregivers through partnerships in school-based health promotion programming were discussed.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prevalence of overweight and obese children has increased dramatically in the United States over the past 20 years and is a symptom of multiple systemic and cultural changes that have significantly influenced alterations in energy intake, energy expenditures, and the energy balance of children across the nation. School-based obesity prevention programs addressing nutrition and healthy eating behaviors within the school environment and cultural context provide a unique opportunity to educate and engage students in healthy food consumption practices. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a three-year elementary school nutrition education program for students in grades kindergarten through fifth using a longitudinal analysis of two separate data sets, a nutrition skills behavior assessment survey of self-reported eating behaviors, and body mass index (BMI) scores derived from height and weight measurements of program participants. Nutrition survey results indicated that students reported making healthier food choices from August 2001 to November 2004, with a significant decrease in reported consumption of fats/oils/sweets and significant increases in reported consumption of milk, meat, vegetables, fruit and grains. BMI results indicated a 7.8% decline in the percentage of students in the "overweight" and "at-risk for overweight" categories between August 2001 and October 2004. The combined results of both measures indicate that the nutrition education program appeared to positively affect eating behaviors and body mass index percentages. Implications of the study and strategies for further research are proposed.

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FAO provides countries with technical support to conduct nutrition assessments, in particular to build the evidence base required for countries to achieve commitments made at the Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2) and under the 2016-2025 UN Decade of Action on Nutrition. Such concrete evidence can only derive from precise and valid measures of what people eat and drink. There is a wide range of dietary assessment methods available to measure food and nutrient intakes (expressed as energy insufficiency, diet quality and food patterns etc.) in diet and nutrition surveys, in impact surveys, and in monitoring and evaluation. Differenct indicators can be selected according to a study's objectives, sample population, costs and required precision. In low capacity settings, a number of other issues should be considered (e.g. availability of food composition tables, cultural and community specific issues, such as intra-household distribution of foods and eating from shared plates, etc.). This manual aims to signpost for the users the best way to measure food and nutrient intakes and to enhance their understanding of the key features, strengths and limitations of various methods. It also highlights a number of common methodological considerations involved in the selection process. Target audience comprises of individuals (policy-makers, programme managers, educators, health professionals including dietitians and nutritionists, field workers and researchers) involved in national surveys, programme planning and monitoring and evaluation in low capacity settings, as well as those in charge of knowledge brokering for policy-making.
