“…Por otra parte, en el caso del Doc_id 57, sobre la relación entre alimentos ultraprocesados (AP) y la cognición, se encuentra la misma línea de hallazgos. Investigadores brasileños señalan la importancia de conocer y evaluar los efectos de los AP en la cognición y el aprendizaje de jovenes y adolecentes (Noll et al, 2021). Además, se ha demostrado que el consumo excesivo de AP está asociado a mayor riesgo de síntomas psicológicos (Xu et al, 2019), mayor impulsividad (Coumans et al, 2018), comportamientos violentos (Zahedi et al, 2014) y depresión (Liu et al, 2007).…”

El presente estudio explora los hallazgos en neurociencias en relación con la neuroeducación y educación de investigaciones realizadas en México y/o investigadores Mexicanos. En este estudio, se buscó realizar una revisión de producción científica sobre hallazgos neurocientíficos relacionados al medio ambiente, con sus variables y su relación con la neuroeducación en México a través de la minería de datos. Se realizó mediante la utilización de Lenguaje R, con la exploración de la base de datos PubMed. Después de los, 76844 registros encontrados se realizó una diseminación con base a los objetivos de investigación, la muestra final fue de 13 artículos. La minería de datos resultó ser una metodología de trabajo que dinamiza el análisis de documentos, a su vez, permite al investigador poder explorar con otras herramientas como el análisis de sentimientos o minería de opiniones que propician nuevas formas y oportunidades para realizar procesos de investigación con la literatura existente en la web.

The effect of free school fruit on academic performance: a nationwide quasi-experiment

In past research, higher intake of fruit has been associated with better academic achievement. In Norway, the government required lower secondary schools to provide fruit to their pupils from 2007 to 2014. The present study assessed whether this policy improved academic performance. In addition to secondary schools, the policy covered schools with combined elementary and lower secondary education, but not ordinary elementary schools. This differentiation, in combination with administrative data on test scores before, during, and after the law was enforced, created a nationwide quasi-experiment. Population register data on parents’ sociodemographic characteristics allowed for targeted analyses on a subsample of boys with low sociodemographic status. In analyses of 5th grade tests, the free fruit policy coincided with a slight decline in test scores among eligible compared to non-eligible pupils in the subsample (B = − 0.18, 95%CI[− 0.35, − 0.01]) and entire population (B = − 0.14, 95%CI[− 0.24, − 0.05]). Exploratory analyses of exam data in 10th grade yielded similar results, and sensitivity tests either failed to detect any effect or demonstrated a negative tendency. In a Western country with low levels of food insecurity, a policy that required schools to provide free fruit to pupils did not appear to improve academic performance.

“…In general, fruit is considered an important component of recommended healthy diets (8), and it may contribute to preventing a range of chronic diseases (9) that can hamper social and cognitive functioning. Youth consume many ultra-processed foods that might be negatively linked to cognition and learning (10), and fruit may replace such unhealthy food (11).…”

In past research, higher intake of fruit has been associated with better academic achievement. Can the provision of one piece of fruit every school day improve children′s academic performance? In Norway, the government required all lower secondary schools to provide fruit to their pupils from 2007 to 2014. The policy also covered schools with combined elementary and lower secondary education (1st to 10th grade), but not ordinary elementary schools (1st to 7th grade). This differentiation, in combination with administrative data on test scores before, during, and after the law was enforced, created a nationwide quasi-experiment. Population register data on parents′ sociodemographic characteristics allowed for targeted analyses of a subsample with lower grades and lower fruit intake (boys of low socioeconomic status). In pre-registered analyses, we found no evidence that exposure to the free school fruit policy improved academic performance in the subsample or the entire population of Norwegian pupils. The free fruit policy coincided with a slight decline in performance among pupils covered by the policy. In a Western country with low levels of food insecurity, a policy that required schools to provide free fruit to pupils did not improve learning and may even have interfered with learning.
