Abstract:
The composition of the diet has been recently researched as an important factor in controlling excess body fat, and thus obesity. Along with dietary modifications, it has been stressed to incorporate behavior modification and daily physical activity to promote weight loss. A comprehensive program incorporating all three components is the suggested treatment for long term weight maintenance. This study investigated a 12 week low dietary fat education program including behavior modification and physical activity to promote weight loss in the abdominally obese. There were eight experimental subjects and four controls. Measurements assessed were height, weight, percent body fat, body mass index, waist/hip ratio, ideal body weight, daily caloric intake, percent dietary fat intake, percent saturated fat intake, saturated fat gram intake, physical activity assessments and resting metabolic rate. Results showed significant differences between the experimental and control groups for calorie intake, body weight, ideal body weight and saturated fat gram intake at post-intervention. Percent of dietary fat intake decreased from baseline to follow-up in the experimental group, but did not reach significance. There was a 33% decrease in saturated fat gram intake from baseline to follow-up in the experimental group. A significant decrease in daily caloric intake occurred in the experimental group from baseline to post-intervention. The decrease in body weight could not be directly correlated to dietary fat intake, although they did have a tendency to move in the same direction. These data suggest the weight management program in this study was successful at decreasing body weight, daily caloric intake, dietary fat intake and saturated fat intake.The qualitative interview revealed obstacles faced by the subjects. The most common difficulties in adhering to the program included time constraints, travel, lack of a structured physical activity component, social pressures triggering eating behavior, feeling of guilt when prioritizing time for oneself and lack of continued support and education through class sessions. Individual motivational factors existed. Therefore, personalized attention and a continued support system would be beneficial as part of the treatment program for success in changing lifestyle behaviors.In conclusion, this data suggest an educational program encouraging decreased dietary fat intake, behavior modification and increased daily physical activity without a calorie controlled plan can promote weight management in the abdominally obese.<br>Institute for Wellness

Abstract:
Educational Administration<br>Ed.D.<br>This quantitative study examined the impact, if any, of two general co-teaching models on the academic achievement of all of the fourth-grade students in a small suburban elementary school district. It addressed co-teaching methods as possible supports to improve literacy gains for all elementary school students. The researcher investigated the effectiveness of two general co-teaching models, each of which employed some form of parallel or supportive teaching strategies. These interventions were measured by the Measurement of Academic Progress (MAP) tests, which are state-aligned, computerized, adaptive tests that reflect the achievement level of each student and measure growth over time. Fourth grade students were tested in the Fall 2008, then tested again, in Spring 2009. Their academic growth in literacy was evaluated via repeated measures analysis of variance. The data were disaggregated by gender, race, socio-economic status, and ability level. Comparisons were made as to the effectiveness of the co-teaching models, and, if evident, which interventions were most effective based on the disaggregated data.<br>Temple University--Theses

Abstract:
Syftet med denna studie är att nå kunskap om hur normer och värderingar framställs och förmedlas i undervisning av nyanlända elever. Den tidigare forskningen i ämnet har ökat de senaste åren och koncentreras framförallt till en segregationsproblematik. En kvalitativ ansats ligger till grund för studien och genom en övergripande ideologianalys undersöks i synnerhet hur värderingar om jämställdhet, kön och könsmönster framställs och förmedlas genom läromedel och lärarledd undervisning. Utifrån undervisningen synliggörs samtidigt antaganden om målgruppens värderingar som står i kontrast till de etablerade svenska värderingarna. Datamaterialet samlades in genom en kvalitativ textanalys av läromedlet Mål 2 och semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra lärare som undervisar på språkintroduktion. De centrala teoretiska begreppen utgår från Jörgen Mattlars användning av ideologi och hegemoni. Det sistnämnda innebär att de föreställningar som den dominerande klassen tar fasta på blir till sunt förnuft och den sanning som inkluderar moral, traditioner och levnadsnormer som är grundläggande för samhället. De två ideologiska parametrar som vi tar fasta på i studien är essentialismen, en filosofisk ståndpunkt som betonar biologiska skillnader som naturliga, vilket ställs emot konstruktivismen som betonar fenomen som socialt konstruerade. Resultatet visar att det finns ideologiska spänningar mellan hur kön, könsmönster och jämställdhet framställs och förmedlas vilket dras mellan en essentialistisk och konstruktivistisk ideologiproduktion. Hegemoniska värderingar gällande det svenska samhället som norm framställs och förmedlas som överordnade i undervisningen genom antaganden om målgruppens värderingar. Detta syns genom olika sätt genom undervisning av jämställdhet, kön och könsmönster utifrån ämnen som familj, föräldraledighet, yrken och relationer etcetera.<br>The purpose of this study is to gain knowledge about how norms and values ​​are conveyed and presented in teaching of immigrant students. The previous research on the subject has increased in recent years and is mostly concentrated on a segregation problem. An ideological analysis examines how equality, gender and gender norms are produced and conveyed in teaching materials as well as within teaching in general. In order to collect data, a qualitative method was conducted through text analysis of the textbook Mål 2-lärobok, as well as semi-structured interviews with four teachers at introductory programs. Based on the teaching, assumptions about immigrant students values ​​that contrast with the established Swedish values ​​are made visible. The data was then interpreted based on Jörgen Mattler's concept of ideology and hegemony. Hegemony is about the reproduction and maintenance of the prevailing social order through subordinate social group joining the values of the dominant social group, which becomes common sense. The ideological parameters essentialism, which emphasizes biological differences as natural, is opposed to constructivism, which emphasizes that phenomena are socially constructed. The result shows that among immigrant students education there are contrapositions between how gender and equality are conveyed and produced. Both in Mål 2 and within teaching in general there is a clash between an essentialistic ideological basis on the one hand and a constructivist basis on the other. Hegemonic values ​​regarding Swedish society as the norm are presented and conveyed as superiors in teaching through assumptions about the target group's values. This can be seen through various ways of conveying and producing gender equality, gender and gender patterns based on topics such as family, parental leave, professions and relationships, etc.

Wright, Karen Faye. "Teaching Heart Failure Patients a Low-Sodium Diet." ScholarWorks, 2018. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/6155.

Abstract:
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a progressive medical condition affecting more than 7 million people in the United States (US) with 700,000 new cases reported annually. More than half of those treated for CHF are readmitted at least once a year. The problem addressed by this quality improvement initiative was lack of adherence to low sodium diet (LSD) among CHF patients, knowledge and skill deficit, and excessive 30-day CHF readmissions. The health belief model and the self-care deficit theory guide nurses in acquiring the skills needed to teach LSD. Twelve months of data were selected from 93 CHF readmissions from a target population of 499 CHF admissions. Measures of central tendency were used to extract meaningful summaries between variables for patterns related to 30-day readmissions and to plan educational interventions to improve patient outcomes. The educational intervention focused on educating nurses to teach adult patients with CHF to adopt a LSD. Discharge teaching materials developed were standardized, customizable, evidence-based, and included opportunities for evaluation of patient understanding and reteaching as necessary. Analysis of variance was conducted to evaluate the difference between days to readmission and compliance with the patient education process, and no significant difference (p < .05) was found (F(3,89) = .314, p = .815). The implications of this project for social change include preparing nurses to teach patients to adopt a LSD, empowering CHF patients to improve health outcomes, and improving the financial outcomes related to CHF.

Abstract:
Thirty females, 55 to 70 years old, participated in an investigation comparing two methods of teaching the diabetic diet. Subjects were required to take the WRAT-R, a test which assessed their reading capabilities. Only those scoring at the seventh grade level or below qualified for this investigation. Following the test, subjects were assigned to one of two groups. Participants in Group 1 received one-on-one instructions of Healthy Food Choices, whereas participants in Group 2 received videotaped instructions of Healthy Food Choices. Healthy Food Choices is a more simplified meal planning tool designed for those that cannot understand the concepts of the Exchange Lists for Meal Planning. Participants were instructed by the researcher, either on videotape or one-on-one. A follow-up visit occurred in a mean of 10.3 days to assess comprehension of the instructions provided. Each participant was contacted again by telephone in a mean of 28.7 days from the follow-up visit to assess long-term retention of the instructions they were provided. The sample menu collected from the two contacts provided data on choice deletions and additions. These data were analyzed by t-tests. There were no statistically significant differences found between diabetic diet instructions done by videotape or one-on-one at either follow-up visit or telephone contact. In this sample, videotaped instructions of the diabetic diet were just as effective as one-on-one instructions.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
Syftet med föreliggande kvantitativa studie har varit att ta reda på i vilken utsträckning musik- studerande elever och studenter upplever att de kan öva strukturerat och effektivt samt om sång- och instrumentallärare, inom ramen för sin undervisning, lär sina elever detta. Avsikten var också att ta reda på om det med anknytning till detta finns samband eller variationer bland respondenterna kopplat till någon av bakgrundsfaktorerna kön, instrument, genre eller skol- form. Med positivism och objektivism som vetenskaps- och kunskapsteoretiska utgångspunkter valdes enkät som forskningsmetod där två olika enkäter konstruerades, en till elever och stu- denter och en till lärare. Enkäterna distribuerades sedan till gymnasieskolor, folkhögskolor och musikhögskolor runt om i Sverige. Resultatet visar att lärarnas svar och eleverna och studen- ternas svar skiljer sig markant, där lärarna i högre utsträckning anger att de bistår sina elever med övningsmetoder och vägledning. Tidigare forskning pekar på att lärare tenderar att tro att de lär sina elever att öva i högre utsträckning än vad de faktiskt gör, vilket är något som disku- teras i förhållande till föreliggande studies resultat. Vidare visar resultatet att genre kan vara den mest avgörande faktorn för i vilken utsträckning elever och studenter får möjlighet att lära sig att öva inom ramen för sång- och instrumentalundervisningen. Elever och studenter inom den klassiska genren anger nämligen i signifikant högre utsträckning att de får vägledning i sin övning jämfört med elever och studenter inom genren jazz/pop/rock. Av resultatet framgår också att majoriteten av eleverna och studenterna önskar mer stöd och vägledning i sin övning. Avslutningsvis förs därför en diskussion om huruvida utlärning av övning är ett moment som tydligare bör framhävas i kursplaner och styrdokument.<br>The purpose of the present quantitative study has been to investigate the extent to which stu- dents feel that they can practice in a manner that is structured and effective. Additionally, the purpose was to examine whether song and instrumental teachers, within their regular teaching, also teach their students how to practice. The intention was furthermore to find out whether there are any connections or variations among the respondents linked to any of the background factors: gender, instrument, genre or school form. Based on positivism and objectivism as the- ories of science and knowledge, questionnaires were chosen as research method, in which one questionnaire was designed for students and one for teachers. The questionnaires were then distributed to upper secondary schools, folk high schools and music colleges around Sweden. The result shows that the teachers' answers and the students' answers differ markedly, where the teachers, to a greater extent, indicate that they assist their students with practice methods and guidance. Previous research indicates that teachers tend to think that they teach their stu- dents to practice to a greater extent than they actually do, which is something that is discussed in relation to the results of the present study. Furthermore, the results show that genre can be the most decisive factor for the extent to which students are given the opportunity to learn to practice within their lesson. Students in the classical genre indicate to a much greater extent that they receive guidance in their practice compared to students in the jazz/pop/rock genre. The result also shows that the majority of the students wants more support and guidance in their practice. Therefore, a final discussion is held about the aspect of teaching students how to prac- tice and whether this aspect maybe need to be clarified in syllabuses and steering documents.

Abstract:
Sodium (Na) and potassium (K) are essential nutrients. We investigated Na and K content of foods collected from the 2007 Vancouver Total Diet Study (TDS). Our food nutrient content data showed that processed foods and soups had a high Na content while fluid milk, unprocessed meats and several fruits and vegetables had a high K content. The Na/K ratio indicated, with few exceptions, a segregation of the foods high in Na from ones high in K. Based on this data, new Na and K intakes were generated using Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS2.2), cycle 2.2 Nutrition dietary recall. In general, the results showed a lower Na intake than indicated by CCHS2.2, but still higher than the Tolerable Upper Level of Intake (UL). K intakes were similar to CCHS2.2 data showing an intake lower than the AI.<br>Le sodium (Na) ainsi que le potassium (K) sont des nutriments essentiels. Nous avons examiné le contenu de Na et de K d'aliments collectés pour l'Étude Canadienne sur l'alimentation totale de Vancouver conduite en 2007. Notre base de données sur le contenu nutritionnel des aliments a démontré que les aliments traités et les soupes ont un haut niveau de Na alors que le lait, les viandes non-traitées ainsi que plusieurs fruits et légumes détiennent un niveau élevé de K. Basés sur ces données, de nouvelles prises ont été générées en utilisant l'Enquête sur la santé dans les collectivités canadiennes (ESCC 2.2), cycle 2.2, Nutrition. En général, les résultats ont démontré un niveau d'ingestion de Na moins que CCHS mais plus élevé que l'apport maximum tolérable (AMT). Les ingestions de K étaient similaires aux données contenues dans l'ESCC 2.2, démontrant une ingestion inférieure à l'apport suffisant (AS).

Abstract:
L’objectif principal de la thèse était d’étudier les effets de l’alimentation et de l’obésité sur l’asthme et son évolution, en prenant en compte des facteurs de médiations spécifiques.La première partie de la thèse visait à étudier le rôle de l’alimentation dans l'asthme, en prenant en compte l’indice de masse corporelle (IMC) comme un médiateur potentiel, et en évaluant l’effet modificateur du tabac dans ces associations. Ce travail a d’abord porté sur le rôle de la consommation de charcuterie, récemment classée cancérogène. Parmi 971 adultes de l’étude des facteurs génétiques et environnementaux de l’asthme (EGEA), nous avons montré qu’une consommation élevée de charcuterie (au moins 4 fois par semaine) était associée de façon directe à l’aggravation des symptômes de l’asthme, et que seulement 14% de l’association entre la consommation de charcuterie et l’asthme était expliqué par l’IMC (effet indirect). Ce travail a ensuite porté sur le rôle de la qualité globale de l’alimentation, évaluée par le score alimentaire Alternate Healthy Eating Index 2010. Parmi 969 participants d’EGEA, nous avons montré qu’une alimentation de qualité était associée de façon directe à une amélioration des symptômes de l’asthme chez les non-fumeurs. L’effet indirect lié à l’IMC n’était pas significatif. La deuxième partie de la thèse visait à mieux comprendre l'association entre l'obésité et l'activité de l’asthme, en prenant en compte la leptine, une adipokine pro-inflammatoire, comme un médiateur potentiel. Parmi 331 adultes d’EGEA avec un asthme actif à l’inclusion, les analyses ont montré que différentes mesures élevées de la composition corporelle étaient associées à une activité persistante de l’asthme, avec un effet indirect très fort de la leptine dans ces associations<br>The general aim of the thesis was to study the role of diet and obesity in asthma, while accounting for potential mediators in these analyses.The first part of the thesis aimed to investigate the role of dietary factors in asthma at a “macro-level”, considering body mass index (BMI) as a potential mediator, and to evaluate effect modification by smoking. We first focused on processed meat intake, a recent carcinogen. Among 971 participants from the Epidemiological study on the Genetics and Environment of Asthma, bronchial hyperresponsiveness and atopy (EGEA), analysis showed that high processed meat intake (at least 4 servings/week) was associated with worsening asthma symptoms over time, through a direct effect and to a lesser extent an effect mediated by BMI. We then focused on the overall diet quality assessed by the Alternate Healthy Eating Index 2010. Among 969 participants from the EGEA study, the analyses showed that a greater adherence to a better diet quality was associated with improved asthma symptoms over time in never smokers only and was not mediated through BMI. The second part of the thesis aimed to better understand the association between obesity and asthma at a “micro-level”, considering leptin, an inflammatory biological marker related to obesity, as a mediator. Including 331 participants from the EGEA study with current asthma at baseline, analysis showed that high body adiposity estimated by different measures was associated with persistent asthma activity, likely mediated by leptin

Full text
Abstract:
The SEATON cohort comprising 2000 pregnant women recruited 1997-99 was established to test if maternal nutrition during pregnancy affects the likelihood of children developing asthma. At 32 weeks gestation mothers’ diets were assessed by food frequency questionnaire. 1,924 live singleton births comprised the birth cohort with follow-up at 6 months, 1, 2, 5 and 10 years (the latter the focus of this thesis). Children’s diets were assessed at 5 and 10 years. Their asthmatic status was assessed by International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood questionnaire. Children participating at 5 or 10 years were also invited for measurement of spirometry and allergy. Cross-sectionally at 10 years 934 children (48% boys) participated by return of questionnaire, 449 also took part in the in-depth assessment. Higher maternal vitamin D intakes were associated with decreased odds of ‘doctor diagnosed asthma’, ‘wheeze ever’ and ‘wheeze in the last year’ in the children. Contrary to findings at 5 years no association between maternal vitamin E intake and asthma outcomes was seen. Longitudinally over the 10 years of the study, higher maternal vitamin D and E intakes during pregnancy were both associated with a decreased likelihood of ‘doctor diagnosed asthma’, ‘active asthma’ and ‘wheeze in the last year’ in the children. In conclusion, reduced maternal vitamin D and E intakes during pregnancy are associated with an increased likelihood of childhood asthma during the first ten years of life. Vitamin E appears to be associated with early asthma and wheeze possibly reflecting a role in affecting early airway remodelling processes. Associations with vitamin D were seen consistently over different time-points, possibly having its effect in an immunomodulatory fashion. Intervention trials are required to ascertain if intervention during pregnancy actually reduces childhood asthma rates.

Abstract:
Objective: Reduced maternal levels of vitamin D, E and zinc during pregnancy has been linked to the development of asthma and allergic disease in children. The birth cohort investigated if maternal dietary intake in pregnant Saudi women was associated with childhood asthma and allergic disease up to 24 months of age. Methods: One thousand six hundred and twenty four women were recruited to a prospective birth cohort from an antenatal clinic in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A food frequency questionnaire was used to characterize diet during pregnancy and serum micronutrient levels were measured. 1436 singleton children were followed up at 6, 12 and 24 months of age by interview administrated telephone calls. Results: Multivariate analyses revealed no associations between the primary maternal dietary nutrient intakes of vitamin E and zinc and the respiratory outcomes in the cohort children at 24 months of age. There was a borderline significant association between increasing maternal zinc intake and maternal reports of food allergy in the cohort children at 24 months. Positive associations with maternal dietary folate intake with maternally reported ‘itchy rash for at least 6 consecutive months' (OR= 2.36 p-=0.020) and any food allergies (OR= 2.18 p= 0.025). Conclusion: This study suggests no conclusive evidence that maternal intake of vitamin D, E and zinc of Saudi women may lower the risks of developing asthma and allergic disease in early childhood. However, a higher dietary intake of folate during pregnancy increased the risk of reported itchy rash, eczema and food allergy in the cohort children up to 24 months. Further follow up of the cohort will provided evidence that will support or refute whether maternal diet during pregnancy is associated with asthma and allergic disease in childhood.

Abstract:
Background: Studies evaluating the possible health-promoting effects of sound nutrition in heart and lung transplant recipients are currently lacking. Despite advances in drug treatment and patient monitoring, lifestyle-associated complications such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease occur frequently. Following transplantation, a low-fat eating pattern is currently viewed as best standard care. However, a Mediterranean diet based on a varied range of fresh unprocessed foods and supplemented with extra virgin olive oil has demonstrated clinical benefit in various non-transplant populations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a Mediterranean vs a low-fat diet intervention in heart and lung transplant recipients, and to assess clinical and biochemical outcomes. Methods: This was a randomised controlled feasibility trial to evaluate a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil, vs a modified low-fat diet in heart and lung transplant recipients at a single centre. In total, 41 clinically stable male and female (median age 55 years) transplant recipients were randomly assigned (1:1) in two separate 12-month waves (n=24 and n=17) to one of these diet interventions. A range of validated food frequency and adherence questionnaires captured changes in participants' reported eating habits to 6 weeks post-study. Clinical and biochemical analysis was conducted at baseline, 25 and 52 weeks. Telephone and outpatient contact provided a support mechanism to reinforce dietary behavioural change. Caloric intake and physical exercise awareness were discussed, but not promoted. Results: Thirty nine participants completed the trial (95%). Adherence to both interventions improved significantly at week 25, and was maintained at 52 and 58 weeks. Compared with baseline, waist circumference decreased in both groups at week 25 (p=0.024). A decrease in blood pressure and heart rate occurred at 52 weeks in the low-fat group only. At 52 weeks, higher adherence resulted in significant improvements in fasting glucose in the Mediterranean (< 4.8%) and low-fat (< 5%) groups. This respective pattern was also observed with total cholesterol (≤ 9% and ≤ 7%), triglycerides (≤ 9% and ≤ 20%) and IGF-1 (≤ 9% and ≤ 15%). A significant decrease in the LDL/HDL ratio (≤ 12%) occurred in the Mediterranean group only. Moreover, clinically relevant lipid and glucose regulation changes were observed in each intervention. Conclusions: The implementation of a prospective 12-month Mediterranean or low-fat diet is feasible and acceptable in a heart and lung transplant outpatient setting. Both interventions were positively associated with improvements in lipid and blood glucose regulation and circulating IGF-1. As part of a multidisciplinary framework, these findings offer an additional therapeutic strategy to optimise outpatient care.

Abstract:
This thesis quantified risks of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg) in the diet of First Nations peoples residing on-reserve in the province of Ontario, Canada. Data was obtained from the 2011-2012 First Nations Food, Nutrition, and Environment Study (FNFNES) and Health Canada to construct total diet studies and probabilistic assessments. Results indicated that the majority of the population is at low risk of exceeding the reference values for these contaminants. Average exposures of Pb and Hg were higher than the general Canadian population (1.7 and 1.6 times greater, respectively), whereas Cd was 59% lower than the Canadian average. The upper percentiles of the population exposure distributions were characterized for contributing food items to assist risk management strategies. For cadmium exposures, smokers had elevated exposures compared to non-smokers. Women of childbearing age had lower dietary MeHg exposures than the total population and were largely below the reference value.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess the diet and nutrient intake of college students, between the ages of 18 and 25, in Japan and the United States through a 24-item nutrition information questionnaire and 3-day food records.Unlike the Japanese students, American college students met the suggested intake for carbohydrate and protein. Mean intake of dietary cholesterol and percentage of total calories from fat was much higher in Japanese females and both groups of males. Most of the Japanese students met the suggested/ recommended intake for sodium and iron, while only the American males met the recommended intake for iron. Recommended intake for calcium was met by majority of American males. This study showed differences and similarities in dietary intake of macro and selected nutrients exist between genders of two cultures. Thus, nutrition intervention may be needed to improve eating habits and nutrition related diseases in college students.<br>Department of Family and Consumer Sciences

Abstract:
Aim: This study’s aim was to improve our understanding of the dietary behaviours of people receiving opioid substitution treatment (OST) in the UK. Setting: The study focuses on people receiving prescribing interventions for OST from pharmacies in Oxfordshire, England. Methods: Dietary behaviours were assessed using a longitudinal convergent parallel mixed methods research design. Quantitative methods included a socio-demographic and drug use questionnaire, SF-36 health related quality of life questionnaire, 24-hour dietary recall interview, and anthropometry measures. Qualitative semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted to understand how individuals’ experiences with food and diet influence their dietary behaviours. Follow-ups were conducted four months after baseline data collection. The same quantitative and qualitative research tools were applied at the second stage of the study. Results: Mean (SD) Body Mass Index for males (n=15) and females (n=10) exceeded the normal range [25.2 (5.9) kg/m2 and 33.3 (8.6) kg/m2, respectively] at baseline. Males decreased to the normal range at follow-up [mean (SD) = 24.1 (± 6.2) kg/m2]. Females increased to Obesity Class II at follow-up [mean (SD) = 35.1 (± 8.0) kg/m2]. Non-starch polysaccharide intakes were significantly lower than the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI). Iron intakes among females were significantly below the RNI. Saturated fat intake and sodium intake exceeded the RNI. Eleven (44%) participants had multiple health conditions. Food consumption was influenced by factors such as childhood eating, mental health issues, digestive issues, limited financial resources, drug use and accommodation. Conclusions: People receiving OST in the UK may be at risk of development of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Dietary and nutritional recommendations may benefit this population. Recommendations must accommodate for specialised needs. Further research is required in the UK to understand aspects such as multi-morbidity rates, rates of overweight and obesity, food acquisition, food preparation skills and food expenditures.

Abstract:
碩士<br>義守大學<br>資訊管理學系<br>105<br>owadays, the standard of living in Taiwan has reached such an adequate level that, compared to before, few cases of deaths from starvation are reported. On the contrary, people are confronted with chronic diseases that are caused by overweight and could cause too many physical burdens or even death, due to their tendencies to sedentary activ-ities and insufficient exercise. Therefore, people should have the right concepts of diets and obtain nourishment their bodies need, in order for them to develop more healthily. These concepts should be framed in childhood, where school education plays an im-portant role. This research focuses on how to help students learn these concepts better. This study aimed to investigate the effect of integrating multimedia into teaching balanced diet on students’ learning outcome and learning motivation. Students from four seventh-grade classes of a municipal junior high school participated in this investigation and were divided into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group received multimedia-integrated teaching of balanced diet, while the control group received the traditional teaching approach. All the participants received pre- and post-experiment tests, and the collected data were further analyzed through descriptive statis-tics and Independent Samples T-test to see whether the multimedia-integrated approach can enhance students’ learning of balanced diets. The results showed that the experimental group scored higher than the control group in the post-test of nutrition knowledge. The students’ learning outcomes differed signifi-cantly due to different teaching approach. In addition, the experimental group dis-played significantly stronger learning motivation then the control group. The results indicated that multimedia-integrated teaching do help students learn better about balanced diet and enhance their learning motivation. Based on the findings, the researcher suggested that teachers can take multimedia- integrated approach to teach students balanced diets.

Abstract:
The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to determine the impact of five 50-minute experiential lessons developed by the researcher on high school students’ knowledge about, attitude toward, and consumption of fruits and vegetables. Subjects in this study included a convenience sample of 41 high school students enrolled in Family and Consumer Sciences classes at Crothersville Junior/Senior High School in Crothersville, Indiana, in the spring semester of 2011. A pretest was given to students in the Adult Roles class (control; n=19) and the Nutrition and Wellness class (treatment; n=22), after which students in the treatment group received five lessons containing additional depth and laboratory experiences where students prepared and tasted various fruits and vegetables. At the conclusion of the lessons, and nine weeks after the unit, the posttest was given to the control and treatment groups. Results indicated the lessons significantly increased students’ knowledge compared to the control group (7.8 ± 1.5 vs. 4.6 ± 2.4, F=26.27; p = 0.000), and nine weeks after the curriculum test (6.9 ± 2.1 vs. 5.3 ± 2.9; F=4.46, p=0.041), but had a modest impact on these high school students’ attitudes toward and consumption of fruits and vegetables.<br>Department of Family and Consumer Sciences

This study concludes that the sixth graders have some basic cognition of healthy diet before the healthy diet program, but when it comes to food safety issues, the students do not cognize the importance of this issue. Part of the students do not have positive attitude toward this issue and their eating habits need to be improved. After practicing the healthy diet program, students have significant and positive differences in the field of healthy diet cognition, attitudes and behaviors.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate a nutrition education program for men on healthy eating when dining out. The Health Belief Model provided the basic framework to identify factors that would potentially motivate men over 40 to change their dietary behavior to reduce heart disease risk. Roundtable discussions were held to identify nutrition needs. A 10 minute "Dine Right with MENu Insight" slide program on low-fat eating away from home was developed. Three educational messages were the key concepts of the program: 1) relationship between diet and health, 2) proportionality, variety and moderation as themes of the Food Guide Pyramid and 3) low-fat food choices at home and away. A four page handout was developed to supplement the slide show presentation. Four programs were presented to a total of 148 people (136 males, 12 females) at Rotary and Kiwanis groups in Corvallis and Albany, Oregon in January and February, 1994. Each program included a pretest, the "Dine Right with MENu Insight" slide presentation and a group discussion. Of the 136 males, forty-eight volunteered (aged 40-60 years) and completed the 10-15 minute follow-up phone post-test 3-4 weeks after attending the program. Pre-test responses showed limited knowledge of the Food Guide Pyramid, with 65% of the men incorrectly selecting the vegetable group as the base of the Pyramid. Knowledge of low-fat menu choices was high with an average score of 4.7+1.1 (out of a possible 5 points) and a range of 0-5 prior to the education program. An attitude score measuring awareness of healthy dietary practices underlying the Pyramid (eg, variety, proportionality and moderation) had a mean of 5.3+1.7 (out of a possible 15) with a range of 3-8. These pre-test data suggested that participants were aware of the relationship between diet and health. In the post-test, 98% of the men correctly selected the bread group as the Food Guide Pyramid food group that should be eaten in the largest amount. This was a significant increase (p<.001) from pre-test scores. Half of the men had heard of the Pyramid prior to the program. A reassessment of healthy dietary practices awareness showed a significant increase in positive attitudes (p [less than or equal to] .001) with a mean of 3.6+.93 (out of a possible 15 points) and a range of 5-7. Seventy-three percent of the men reported that their diet could be "somewhat healthier". In the past year, 69% reported increasing their consumption of foods (eg, vegetables, grains) to reduce heart disease; 79% reported decreased consumption (eg, red meat). Seventy-five percent reported that they "sometimes" try to select lower fat foods when eating out. Personal preference (65%), menu selection (80%) and the restaurant (27%) influenced lower fat food selection decisions. Many participants indicated awareness of the relationship between proper food selection and optimal health before the program. However, awareness did increase as a result of the program. There was a significant positive (p [less than or equal to] .005) change in attitudes toward the importance of watching fat in the diet in order to stay healthy between pre and posttests. In addition, a positive (r=.36, p [less than or equal to] .05) correlation was reported between knowing that the amount of dietary fat affects the chance of heart disease and watching fat in the diet in order to stay healthy. These data suggest that the Dine Right program conveyed a tie between diet and optimum health. Significant changes in participants' knowledge about the Food Guide Pyramid and underlying concepts also suggest that the program had an impact on participants. These data suggest that knowledge of nutritious food choices at home and away from home increased or was reinforced by the program. The majority (79%) of men learned "some new things" from the program. As a result of the program, 65% planned on making changes in their diets when eating out (eg, by increasing grains, fruits, vegetables). Thirty-five percent planned to make changes at home. Eighty-three percent reported showing the Dine Right handout to someone else and 85% talked about the program with their spouse, family member, coworker or friend. The results of this research indicate that men respond to nutrition education programs. Therefore nutrition and health campaigns to reach the American male are merited. Men's health and nutrition programs such as "Dine Right with MENu Insight" could be followed by additional education programs utilizing a theoretical framework. Future research should test each of the components of the Health Belief Model on men's dietary behavior. Also extensions to other samples of men (such as those with lower educational levels) is warranted in order to better understand how to target nutrition education programs to this important audience.<br>Graduation date: 1995

Abstract:
The purpose of this experimental pilot study was to examine the relationship of nutrition knowledge, dietary habits, and nutrition behavior of collegiate men and women athletes at a Midwestern University (Ball State University) in Indiana. Other variables examined included demographic information. To evaluate and improve the nutrition knowledge and dietary practices among men and women Division I athletes, a series of four nutrition education classes was designed to increase nutrition knowledge and bring awareness of the specific nutritional concerns facing athletes. Subjects consisted of eighteen collegiate men and women swimmers at Ball State University in Indiana. Results indicated a four point increase (p≤0.001) in knowledge between pre and post nutrition education from 22.5 to 26.8 correct points out of 31 questions in both men and women subjects. A significant behavior change was seen in all eighteen athletes for five out of the six questions when pre and post nutrition education behavior change was measured. Nutrition education positively affected dietary habits among subjects when assessing protein and fat in men; and calcium and vegetable intake for both men and women. These specific findings suggest the effectiveness of nutrition education among collegiate athletes.<br>Department of Family and Consumer Sciences

Abstract:
Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Technology: Nursing, Durban University of Technology, 2014.<br>South Africa has a high prevalence of obesity, and many people live with diseases where dietary adaptations are part of the management of the disease. Nurses are important in the facilitation of people obtaining dietary advice. While nutrition education is part of the nursing curriculum, student nurses’ knowledge of nutrition was not known, nor was their dietary intake and nutritional health status. The purpose of the study was to assess the nutrition knowledge of students at a nursing college, and to assess their dietary diversity. A quantitative study was used, with random sampling chosen for selection of campuses and convenience sampling for student group selection. Students of the KwaZulu-Natal College of Nursing were invited to complete a General Nutrition Knowledge Questionnaire. A Food Frequency Questionnaire was completed to assess dietary diversity, and respondents’ anthropometric measurements were recorded to assess Body Mass Index and Waist to Height Ratio. The results showed that a significant percentage of student nurses were overweight or obese. While students had a satisfactory knowledge of dietary recommendations and sources of different nutrients, their ability to make correct food choices, as well as their knowledge of diet-disease relationships was poor. They displayed good dietary diversity in their food intake. There were no statistically significant correlations between the students’ Body Mass Index and their knowledge, which assumes that the individual’s knowledge of nutrition does not directly influence their own food intake. It is recommended that aspects of the content in the nutrition curriculum be emphasised during the training of nurses in order to increase nutrition awareness in areas where knowledge was found to be lacking.

Abstract:
碩士<br>臺北市立大學<br>歷史與地理學系社會科教學碩士學位班<br>104<br>Abstract The main purpose of the present study is mainly to explore how to popularize the Chinese Folk Art in the campus which has been declining gradually under the change of the social circumstances. In order to achieve the study goals, we adopt the case study method. We choose administrative staff, the club-leading teachers, the external teachers, the club students and the parents as our interviewing objects. We understand the set-up background, development, the club operation, the external teachers’ teaching strategy, achievement and the difficulties of operation and the response tactics of Chinese Folk Art Club and collect the information through thorough interviews, teaching observation, analysis questionnaires, feedback sheets and activity records over the years. Hopefully we can offer some ideas and suggestions to those teachers who intend to bring Chinese Folk Art into the campus. Guang-Fu Chinese Folk Art club was set up in 1995.The operation mode holds four years as one period. The students have to learn three-plate instrument in the first two years and then learn the seven-plate instrument for another two-year further study and comic crosstalk. The external teachers are the main instructors. The internal teachers’ jobs are connect with the parents and school and train the students to perform---The expenses of the club come from the students and the subsidy from New Taipei City. Discipline director of the Students Affairs Office takes charge of the money. The study conclusions are as follows: 1. The handouts of the course design of the three-plate instrument in the first stage mainly contain nursery rhythms, children’s songs and tongue twisters. The advanced seven-plate instrument mainly adopts the stories recited to the rhythm of bamboo clappers as the handouts. First of all the students must recite the short paragraph articles and then coordinate with the plates. The external teachers’ initial idea of leading the team is to popularize. They hope the students will learn with happiness. As for the teaching strategy, the first year is to settle the basis. The students should open their mouth and let go their voices and they should hold the bamboo clappers steadily. Then comes the next year, the students have to enhance the later beating time. They should learn seven clappers in the third year. Afterwards the students will learn comic crosstalk in the fourth year.The students of the club and the parents all satisfy with the teaching effect. They also confirm the existing value of Chinese Folk Art Club. 2. The time of the class is not suitable for all the students. Some students dropout of the club and the members are not sufficient. It brings out the difficulty of the club operation. The resolving strategies are to adjust the lecturing time of the club, to change the way of recruiting the new students and to change the arrangement of the handouts. However the club still keeps on going popularizing and spreading because of the persistence of school and the teachers. 3. There is great educational function of Guang-Fu Chinese Folk Art Club. For instance, the purposes are to educate through entertainment, to edify people, to promote the language ability, to train the stage manners, to cultivate self-confidence, to learn the interactive skills with people, to mold the public temperament and to beautify our lives. It has high value to exist and it should keep running.

The conclusions of this study are as follows: 1. The Confucius Ceremony held every year by Taipei Confucius Temple. Da-long elementary school which is close to the temple had the honor to be responsible for ritual dancing since 1931, and the tradition continues till now. For decades, the operation of the ritual dancing club has also changed. The biggest change in enrollment is boys only into boys and girls are both allowed, and from selected system into a free registration system. Also, the system of dance is changed from the Qing dynasty to the Ming dynasty. 2. About the teaching and curriculum in ritual dancing club, refers to the core values of the dance, the sense of cultural identity and being aware the sense of mission. Also refers to the knowledge and understanding of ritual dance and Confucian. Then, refers to the dancing activities and moves. 3. As the times change, the ritual dancing club also continues to face different difficulties. For example, the reduction in the number of students, the materialization of values, increasingly limited scope of developments, etc. This requires the whole school to face up and work on it. 4. Da-long elementary school has noticed these problems, and plans to set up a Confucian ritual dancing group. Hope with the strength of the team, the promotion of the ritual dancing culture can be created, so that ritual dance in Da-Long elementary school can be rooted in their culture and getting stronger.

In order to understand the operation, development, curriculum, instruction, teaching effectiveness, and learning result of this martial art club, the qualitative research method was adopted. The study materials were gathered through interviews, observation records, and other methods of data collection. The results of the study were as followed: The martial art club in Shuang-Yuan Primary School was established to develop the school feature, to offer students multiple choices of clubs, and to develop good characters. It was just a student club at the beginning. After the full-time sport coach joined in the club, it became more as a school team with much better competition results. Students joined in the club had to go through one year-long training and pass the school team exam to be the school team members. The club operation worked smoothly, due to the cooperation of the school administrators, the school staffs, the parent support groups, the counseling teachers, and the school teachers. The club also worked hard to fight for more government funds to build a better training space and to hire more excellent coaches. Under the defined arrangement of the coaches, students gradually learned different basic skills of martial art according to their own features. During the teaching process, individual differences were highly valued and various teaching methods were intelligently adopted. The teaching effectiveness of the coaches in the martial art club could be seen in the pleasant competition results, the behavior change of the students, and the highly praised martial art performances. Moreover, the learning results of the students in martial art club could be viewed through the establishment of intelligence and thinking of the martial art, the progress of the physical capabilities and skills, and the implement of martial virtue. After the training process, the students of the martial art club in Shuang-Yuan Primary School eventually become talents in both academic and martial performances.

Second, aimed to apply the needs of teaching points from the diabetes children that were clarified from the results of the first stage Finally, a double diamond mode with a multidisciplinary corporation workshop was used to help design teaching materials for knowledge of carbohydrates with type 1 diabetes mellitus children. Results:The results indicated the average score of the carbohydrate knowledge in diabetes children was only 40.23 (SD±13.14) from the first stage of study. Several design gaps for the teaching materials were defined from the second stage of the study, including 1) the existed teaching materials are lack of fun; 2)the lack of the knowledge that related to carbohydrate and insulin; 3) The poor of glycemic control in diabetes children; 4)lack of an appropriate tool for calculating carbohydrate of food. Finally, a “CAPRO” carbohydrate board game was developed via a double diamond mode with a multidisciplinary corporation workshop. The ultimate goal of the CAPRO” carbohydrate board game was to make diabetes children easily learn the kind of carbohydrates and how to calculate it. Conclusion:”CAPRO” carbohydrate board game is not only a teaching material for diabetes children but also a game. It can convey the core concept of knowledge of carbohydrate in clinical practice to children and make children to learn and to participate in self-care with a joyful atmosphere. Key word:type 1 diabetes mellitus children, adherence, dietary control, board game, game-based teaching

Abstract:
碩士<br>義守大學<br>醫務管理學系<br>103<br>Chronic renal disease is one of the 10 leading causes of death in our country. Organ transplantation is difficult, and donors are not easily available; therefore, most Chronic renal disease patients depend on hemodialysis treatment for survival. The current health care guide is based on paper materials; however, studies have reported the advantages of using multimedia-based visual effects for learning. Therefore,this study aimed to design interactive visual disks (DVDs) on diet control and feeding guidance for hemodialysis patients.We examined the influence of health education tools on the knowledge and behavior of patients. Furthermore,we examined the efficiency of the health education tools in improving diet control and serving as a clinical care reference for patients. This study adopted a quasi-experimental design. Patients who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study were divided into two groups: control and experimental groups (60 persons in each group). Blood samples for analysis were obtained from two hemodialysis centers in Southern Taiwan. We analyzed the data in the two groups before and after watching the DVDs. The experimental group received diet care intervention on DVD for 4 weeks, three times a week, in 10-minute sessions. The control group received routine health diet education. In this study, a purposive sampling approach was adopted, and we collected data using a structural formula questionnaire. The questionnaire comprised basic patient information; knowledge scales; and behavior scales for hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, and water control. We performed comparative analysis of the serum phosphorus and potassium levels and the weight gain of the patients in the two groups. The effects of the dietary and care intervention DVDs on patients were measured after 4 weeks. Descriptive statistics, frequency allocation, the chi-square test, nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test, and various assays were used for data analysis. The DVD diet care intervention improved the performance of the experimental group. The results of biochemical analysis (serum potassium and phosphorus levels and interdialysis weight gain) were more improved in the experimental group than in the control group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the questionnaire scores on cognition and behavior for high- potassium and -phosphorus diets and water control were higher in the experimental group than in the control group (p < 0.001). The satisfaction levels with the DVD intervention were higher in the experimental group than in the control group (p < 0.001). Therefore,using DVDs can improve the diet knowledge and behavior of hemodialysis patients and facilitate their care. Patient satisfaction regarding the hemodialysis unit of health education is increasing. The health education approach used in this study can be applied to patient care and nursing at hemodialysis centers.

Abstract:
碩士<br>嘉南藥理大學<br>保健營養系<br>106<br>The purpose of this study was to aim the students of a university to establish a healthy eating practice teaching model for promoting the knowledge of dietetic health of the students to explore the influence of cognition of college students' dietary behavior on weight management. This study was conducted with healthy diet of four hours per week for 17 weeks to observe the concept of dietary weight and the correct way of exercise, to assess on the influence of weight management by previous and post-test assessment. The tested samples of this study were from the university students in the southern Taiwan. Students tested needed to attend pre- and post-test measurements for self-management program. The measurement tools included questionnaires and postural measurements, which demonstrate learning good eating habits, correct exercise patterns. Substitution, and self-health management. SPSS 19 program was used to analyze the statistical data. The following results of this study were obtained: “body fat” and “hip circumference” were significantly lower (P<0.001), “thigh circumference “ was significantly lower (P<0.01), and muscle ratio was significantly increased (P <0.001); in all subjects there was a significant decrease in hip circumference (P<0.05) and a significant increase in muscle rate (P<0.01) in male subjects. Hip and thigh circumference in female subjects were significantly lower (P<0.05), body fat was significantly lower (P<0.001), and muscle mass was significantly increased (P<0.01). Subjects with BMI ≦18.5 had a significant increase in muscle mass (P<0.05). Those with BMI ≧ 22.5 had significantly lower body weight and BMI (P<0.05), and body fat, hip circumference, and thigh circumference were all significantly lower (P<0.001), and higher muscle rate significantly (P<0.01). Self-weight management, the concept of healthy dietary knowledge and food selection skills among tested subject were significantly improved. The intervention of healthy eating practice teaching model was suggested to promote the cognition of health dietary management knowledge, dietary behavior and body composition of students in the university.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立屏東科技大學<br>食品科學系<br>93<br>Regular feeding is essential for maintaining the stable blood sugar level and normal physiological function. Carbohydrates are the main fuel used by the muscles and the only fuel that can be used by the CNS(Central nerve system). Sugar is a carbohydrate and is also a rapid source of energy. However, the quantity eaten far more than is required may lead to rebound hypoglycemia in which the blood sugar will drop within 2~4 hours below the level of fasting. When occurring in flight, it will probably cause incapability of pilots and even mishap. Twenty-three healthy volunteers (21 males, 2 females, 22~42 years old) with normal body weight participated this study. They were instructed to ingest three different breakfasts in three separated days, including control meal (hamburger + 350 ml milk), high-carbohydrate meal A (cakes +350 ml bean milk), and high- carbohydrate meal B (chocolate + instant coffee 350 ml). On the experimental day, blood samples were taken before and after feeding every hour and for 5 hours by finger picking. The blood glucose level was determined immediately. In the last hour, we had the subject perform 30-sec anaerobic exercise on a bicycle ergometer every 10 minute for three times. The resistance was selected as 0.05 of body weight. Three minutes after the last pedaling, we took two blood samples for blood sugar and blood lactate analysis respectively. The results showed that blood glucose level declined much more when ingested high-carbohydrate meal than control meal at the end of this study, i.e., 92.57 ± 10.68 < 93.17 ± 8.00 mg/ml for control meal, 86.43 ± 9.55 < 90.87 ± 9.01 mg/ml for meal A (p< .005), 88.70 ± 8.01 < 89.57 ± 6.62 mg/ml for meal B. Besides, the blood sugar levels began to drop below the baseline after 4 hours of feeding both meal A and B. Obviously, the difference of dietary content had demonstrated the rebound hypoglycemia of high-carbohydrate meal. Considering the flying safety, high-sugar meal should be limited for pilots who are going to engage high +Gz tolerance maneuver.
