Proper eating behaviours among youth condition their bodies’ optimal growth and development and impact future diet choices, which affects maintenance of health in later years. Studies concerning assessment of the way of eating among adolescents in Poland over the past years indicate a number of errors.
The aim of these studies was to asses diet diversity of middle school students, living in urban and rural areas located in the Masovian Voivodeship.
180 people participated in this study, 90 girls and 90 boys in age between 13 and 15 years. They were middle school students, living in urban and rural areas of Mazowieckie Voivodeship. Assessment of the variety of eating pattern amongst participants were conducted using the Food Intake Diversification Questionnaire (FIVeQ).
It was found that 3.3% of respondents from rural areas and 10% of respondents from urban areas were characterized by inappropriate variation of food intake. Sufficient variation of food consumption was found among 35.5% respondents from rural areas and 36.6% from urban areas. Good variation of food consumption was demonstrated in 54.4% of subjects from rural areas and in 42.2% from urban areas. Very good variation of food consumption was found in 6,6% of subjects from rural areas and 11.1% from urban areas. It is worth noticing differences in diet variations observed in these studies. It was shown that diet variety at inadequate, good and very good level was significantly different between groups, which may be puzzling considering the fact that all subjects were living in the same Voivodeship.
For reason being, results obtained in these studies indicate the need for education of young people on principles of balanced way of eating.
青少年时期养成的健康饮食行为有助于身体的最佳生长发育，并影响未来的饮食选择，进而对晚年的健康维持产生影响。过去几年中，有关波兰青少年饮食方式评估的研究表明存在一些问题。
这些研究旨在评估马佐夫舍省城乡地区中学生的饮食多样性。
180人参与了本研究，其中90名女孩和90名男孩，年龄在13至15岁之间。他们是居住在马佐夫舍省城乡地区的中学生。使用食物摄入多样化问卷（FIVeQ）对参与者的饮食模式多样性进行评估。
研究发现，农村地区3.3%的受访者和城市地区10%的受访者存在食物摄入变化不当的情况。农村地区35.5%的受访者和城市地区36.6%的受访者食物消费变化充足。农村地区54.4%的受试者和城市地区42.2%的受试者食物消费变化良好。农村地区6.6%的受试者和城市地区11.1%的受试者食物消费变化非常好。值得注意的是这些研究中观察到的饮食变化差异。结果表明，不同组之间在饮食多样性不足、良好和非常好水平上存在显著差异，考虑到所有受试者都生活在同一个省，这可能令人费解。
因此，这些研究所得结果表明有必要对年轻人进行均衡饮食原则的教育。
