家庭飲食型態與學校宣導對國小學童支持蔬食日態度之影響

The Influence of Family Diet Patterns and School’s Propaganda on the Attitude of Children’s Support of Vegetaria Days

不健康的飲食是造成慢性疾病的主要原因之一，多攝食蔬果能降低慢性疾病的發生率，調查指出，臺灣有八成以上的學生之蔬食攝取未達每日建議量，強化學生的態度可以促進學生對蔬食的攝取量。因此，欲養成學童「多吃蔬食、少吃肉」的飲食習慣，可以先從建立學童支持蔬食日的飲食態度做起。本研究目的為：瞭解家庭飲食型態對學童支持蔬食日的態度之影響，進而探討學校宣導介入對學童支持蔬食日之影響。採自填式問卷方式，調查臺南市413位學童。結果指出，家庭飲食型態為葷食與學童支持蔬食日態度呈負向關係，學校宣導對學童支持蔬食日的態度具有顯著的正向影響，學校宣導的正向影響力大於家庭飲食型態為葷食所造成之負面影響。建議透過教師宣導蔬食飲食知識，以提升國小學童支持蔬食日的飲食態度。

Unhealthy diet is one of the main causes of chronic diseases. Intake more fruits and vegetable food can reduce the incidence rate of chronic diseases. Previous studies have shown that more than 80% of students in Taiwan did not intake the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of vegetables. Accordingly, strengthening students’ concept of vegetaria meals may increase their RDA of vegetable diets. Therefore, cultivating children’s attitude of vegetaria meals can promote children’s eating habit of “eat more vegetaria meals and less meat”. Research purpose is to understand the attitudes of family diet patterns to schoolchildren’s support of vegetaria days, and furthermore to explore the impact of school’s propaganda on schoolchildren’s support for vegetaria days. Self-filled questionnaires were used to survey 413 school children in Tainan City. The results indicate that there’s a negative relationship between family diet patterns and attitudes to support vegetaria days. School’s propaganda has a significant positive impact on children’s attitude towards supporting vegetaria days. The positive influence of the school’s promotion is greater than the negative influence of the family’s diet, which is caused by meat diets. It’s recommended that teachers promote the knowledge of vegetaria meals in order to improve the dietary attitude of children in supporting the vegetaria meals.
