Nutrition and Physical Activity Counseling for Nontraditional College Students
February 2, 2012 updated by: Lisa M. Quintiliani, Boston Medical Center
Feasibility of a Health Promotion Program for Nontraditional College Students
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two methods of delivering information about nutrition and physical activity to non-traditional college students.
Participants will receive either a printed feedback report alone, or the feedback report in addition to a series of phone calls from a peer counselor.
The peer counselors will provide nutrition and physical activity counseling using motivational interviewing techniques.
Nutrition and physical activity outcomes will be measured for both groups and compared.
