The purpose of this review is to provide a summary of studies on the effectiveness nutrition education interventions used by college students. Electronic databases such as Medline, Science Direct, CINAHL (EBSCOhost), and Google Scholar were explored for articles that involved nutrition education interventions for college students and that were published between 1990 and 2011. Fourteen studies, which involved a total of 1668 college students as respondents, were identified and met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that there were 3 major forms of nutrition education interventions: web-based education, lectures, and supplement provisions. Dietary intake measures were used in almost all studies and were primarily collected with food records, recall, food frequency questionnaires, and dietary habit questionnaires. The outcome measures varied among the studies, with indicators such as consumption of food, nutrition knowledge, dietary habits, physical activity, and quality of life. Methodological issues were also identified. In general, college students experienced significant changes in their dietary habits after the interventions were employed. The highlighted methodological issues should be considered to improve the quality of similar research in future.
本综述的目的是总结关于大学生所采用的营养教育干预措施有效性的研究。我们检索了电子数据库,如Medline、ScienceDirect、CINAHL(EBSCOhost)和谷歌学术,以查找1990年至2011年间发表的涉及大学生营养教育干预措施的文章。共识别出14项研究,这些研究共有1668名大学生作为受访者,且符合纳入标准。结果显示,营养教育干预措施主要有3种形式:网络教育、讲座和提供补充剂。几乎所有研究都采用了膳食摄入量测量方法,主要通过食物记录、回忆法、食物频率问卷和饮食习惯问卷来收集数据。各研究的结果测量指标各不相同,包括食物消费、营养知识、饮食习惯、身体活动和生活质量等指标。我们还发现了一些方法学问题。总体而言,采用干预措施后,大学生的饮食习惯发生了显著变化。未来应考虑这些突出的方法学问题,以提高类似研究的质量。
