ABSTRACT Nutrition education for low-income audiences often focuses on building skills in food shopping and food resource management to help families receive the best nutrition from the resources they have available. However, empirical evidence for the effect of food shopping practice on dietary quality has been limited. This article presents new analyses from two studies that found an association between food shopping practices and diet quality. Logistic regression of data from 957 respondents from the 1996 National Food Stamp Program Survey found that food shopping practices were significantly (p </= .05) associated with the availability of nutrients in the food the households used during a week. Similarly, analysis of baseline data from 5159 women from selected counties of states who participated in the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program found that food shopping practices were significantly (p </= .05) associated with increased consumption of nutrients as measured through a single 24-hour recall. These findings suggest that food shopping practices are an important area for nutrition education with low-income audiences.
针对低收入人群的营养教育通常侧重于培养食品采购和食物资源管理技能，以帮助家庭从现有资源中获取最佳营养。然而，关于食品采购行为对饮食质量影响的实证证据一直有限。本文展示了两项研究的新分析结果，这两项研究发现食品采购行为与饮食质量之间存在关联。对1996年全国食品券计划调查中957名受访者的数据进行逻辑回归分析发现，食品采购行为与家庭一周内所食用食物中的营养成分供应显著相关（p≤0.05）。同样，对参与扩展食品和营养教育计划的来自各州选定县的5159名女性的基线数据进行分析发现，通过单次24小时饮食回顾测量，食品采购行为与营养物质摄入量增加显著相关（p≤0.05）。这些发现表明，食品采购行为是对低收入人群进行营养教育的一个重要领域。
