Nudging for Behavior Change in School Cafeterias
6. listopadu 2019 aktualizováno: Andrew Hanks, Ohio State University
Measuring the Long-Term Impact of Behavioral Interventions in Middle School Cafeterias
The main purpose of this research is to look at a school lunchroom intervention that is known to improve fruit, vegetable, and milk consumption and see how it changes in the long run and if it affects the child's behavior permanently.
The intervention will include the giving the vegetables descriptive names, moving the fruit to right next to the register and in attractive bowls, and increasing the amount of white milk served by 10%.
The main forms of analyzing these results are through food preparation records, lunch sales records, and tray waste records.
The first focus of this study is to see if there is a specific point in an intervention when improvement stops and therefore the intervention needs to be updated.
This procedure involves looking at five similar middle schools with this same intervention over a 15 week period.
The time of intervention implementation will vary by three week intervals, so the first will start the first week of school, the next school will start after three weeks of school, the next will start after six weeks of school, and the next will start after nine weeks of school, and the last will be a control school where there will be no intervention implementation.
These intervals will help eliminate bias dealing with the beginning of the year excitement and seasonal effects.
Food preparation records and lunch sales records will be collected from the school for the 15 week period.
Tray waste will be recorded by having 200 randomly selected trays measured and collected twice a week over the 15 week period.
This focus will help schools manage when they need to change their intervention so that improvements will not stop.
The second focus of this study is to see if the children's improvement is kept when the intervention has stopped.
This procedure will involve looking at a similar school to the other 5 schools.
But unlike the other schools, this one will have the first 5 weeks without the intervention, then 5 weeks with the intervention, and then another 5 weeks without the intervention.
Food preparation records and lunch sales records will be collected from the school for the 15 week period.
Tray waste will be recorded by having 200 randomly selected trays measured and collected twice a week over the 15 week period.
This second focus will help identify how effective this intervention is in permanently changing dietary habits.

Popis
Inclusion Criteria:
- This research focused on food choices of middle school students, grades 6-8, which generally range in ages 11-14. In addition, since we are interested in learning about the types of cafeteria foods children select and what they throw away, we focus on students who receive a school lunch meal.
Exclusion Criteria:
- We exclude students who do not receive a school lunch meal.

Experimentální: 5-week Intervention with Post-intervention Data Collection
In this school, we collected baseline data for 5 weeks, implemented the intervention for five weeks, then removed the intervention and collected post-intervention data for five weeks.
|
The intervention consists of three components: 1) serving fresh fruit in attractive bowls in at least two locations on the lunch line; 2) providing descriptive names for the vegetables; and 3) increasing amount of plain milk availability by 10% and placing it in front of the chocolate milk.
For the vegetable naming intervention, researchers first developed, printed, and laminated descriptive vegetable name cards (2"x4").
Some examples included "Savory Collard Greens," and "[School Mascot] Salad."
Cafeteria staff affixed name cards to the serving line sneeze-guards in front of the vegetables for the day.
For the fruit intervention, we purchased and delivered two ceramic bowls to the intervention school.
The cafeteria staff filled the bowls and put them in different locations on the lunch line.
For the milk intervention, cafeteria staff increased the amount of plain milk available by 10% and placed plain in front of chocolate milk in the coolers.

Experimentální: Implement intervention for 15 weeks

Percentage of students that took a serving of fruit
Časové okno: 30 days
|
To determine whether or not a student took a serving of fruit, we will rely on tray waste records that we collected twice a week (repeated measures) for the duration of the study.
Based on these records, if a student selected a serving of fruit, she will receive a value of one.
Otherwise, she will receive a value of zero.
We will use this binary measure to estimate the proportion of students who took a serving of fruit.

Throughout the study, researchers conducted fidelity assessments to make sure the schools maintained the interventions.
These process control measures are the ratio of successful fidelity checks to the total number.
Researchers conducted these assessments during each day they collected tray waste measures and during a randomly selected non-tray waste collection date once a month.
