“…The increase in nutrition knowledge in the control group may be attributed to regular school education and out-of-school influences, while in the educated group it was undoubtedly the result of the implemented education program together with school and out-of-school influences. Some previous studies have also evaluated the effectiveness of multi-component intervention models of nutritional and lifestyle education, but the follow-up period from these interventions was shorter and ranged from three to six months [ 45 , 46 , 47 ]. Only Zhou et al [ 17 ] studied the effectiveness of pre-/post-intervention within a nine-month follow-up.…”

“…The studies mentioned above included multi-component intervention packages and were addressed to children and adolescents (Iranian 12–16 years old; Indian 8–18 years old; Chinese 11–14 years old) and their parents and teachers [ 17 , 45 , 46 , 47 ], so they were differently designed in comparison with the current study. In the present study, the education program was related to 11–12-year-old teenagers and was not supported by parents or teachers during education and follow-up.…”

The study aimed to evaluate the sustainability of a multi-component education (ABC-HEat) program related to healthy nutrition and lifestyle after three months and nine months and to assess the socioeconomic context in improving teenage nutrition knowledge. The study was designed as a clustered, controlled, education-based intervention. A sample was chosen and allocated into either an educated group (under intervention) or a control group (outside of intervention). The study covered 464 11–12-year-old students (educated/control 319/145). In the educated group, data were collected three times: before education, after three months and after nine months to measure the short- and the long-term effects of education, respectively. In the control group, data were collected in parallel. Changes in nutrition knowledge score (NKS, points) by sex, residence, family affluence scale (FAS) were the main outcome measures. The increase in the NKS was significantly higher in the educated group than in the control group—three months after education on average by 1.4 to 2.7 points (all p < 0.001) in the total sample and all subgroups, and nine months after education in rural residents by 2.2 points (p < 0.001) and in the total sample by 0.4 (p < 0.05). In the educated group, the chance of no increase in the NKS was higher in urban than rural residents after three months and nine months (adjusted odds ratios [OR] and 95% Confidence Intervals [95% CI]: 3.63, 1.80–7.31 and 2.99, 1.60–5.59, respectively, both p < 0.001) using the increase in the NKS by ≥4 points as a reference. The multi-component education program improved the nutrition knowledge of teenagers in the short term regardless of socioeconomic variables, but in the long term this effect was visible only in rural residents. It suggests that a special path of nutrition education addressed to urban teens may be required.

“…Among the studies, 82.8% used one theory [11,12,[14][15][16][17][18]20 [19,23,27,33,35,49,50,57,59,62,73,74,87,107,111,118,133,144,149,151,152,183,188,190,191,202,210,211,231,237,240,251,253,256,257,261,262], and the remainder reported using three or more. The most common theory was the social cognitive theory (or social learning theory), accounting for almost half of the studies, followed by the theory of planned behaviour, the health belief model, the transtheoretical model and self-determination theory (see Table 2).…”

Nutrition interventions developed using behaviour theory may be more effective than those without theoretical underpinnings. This study aimed to document the number of theory-based healthy eating interventions, the involvement of dietitians/nutritionists and the behaviour theories employed from 2000 to 2020. We conducted a review of publications related to healthy eating interventions that used behaviour change theories. Interventional studies published in English between 2000 and 2020 were retrieved from searching Medline, Cinahl, Embase, Psycinfo and Cochrane Central. Citation, country of origin, presence or absence of dietitian/nutritionist authors, participants, dietary behaviours, outcomes, theories and any behaviour change techniques (BCTs) stated were extracted. The publication trends on a yearly basis were recorded. A total of 266 articles were included. The number of theory-based interventions increased over the two decades. The number of studies conducted by dietitians/nutritionists increased, but since 2012, increases have been driven by other researchers. Social cognitive theory was the most used behaviour theory. Dietitians/nutritionists contributed to growth in publication of theory-based healthy eating interventions, but the proportion of researchers from other professions engaged in this field increased markedly. The reasons for this growth in publications from other professions is unknown but conjectured to result from greater prominence of dietary behaviours within the context of an obesity epidemic.
