|
This survey was carried out to investigate the effect of taking a nutrition course on the nutrition knowledge and food habits of college students who do not major nutrition. Questionnaires were completed by 444 students who have taken nutrition course and by 555 students who did not take nutrition course.
Nutrition knowledge score of the students taken nutrition course was significantly higher than that of Students did not take nutrition course(p <0.001). Especially male students obtained lower nutrition knowledge score than female students in graups who did not take nutrition course (p < 0.001), but there was no difference in nutrition knowledge score between male and female students who have taken nutrition course.
The students taken nutrition course showed higher food habits score than those who did not take nutrition course(p < 0.001). The former had a lower response rate than that of the latter, for what are regarded as poor food habits.
There was a significant and positive correlation between nutrition knowledge score and food habits score in students who have taken nutrition course but not significant correlation in those who did not take nutrition course.
