Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study to design a board game that will enable primary school children to recognize foods by enabling them to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy foods by going beyond the traditional education patterns and to compare the effects of this board game-based nutrition education intervention on children's behaviors, self-efficacy, and attitudes with the control group in which no intervention was made.


Description:

Nutrition is an important part of health and development. In particular, the gaining of healthy eating habits in early childhood promotes growth and development and reduces the risk of many non-communicable diseases, especially obesity. In order to create healthy societies in the future, nutrition education is one of the effective methods for developing healthy eating behaviors and raising awareness starting from childhood. Game-based education approaches provide motivation for learning information that is made a part of the game by going beyond traditional education methods. Board games are used in nutrition education by giving children the opportunity to think interactively and make different choices with their immersive stories and designs.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change in Food Behavior Scale (FBS) It was developed to measure children's habit of consuming low-fat/salt foods in contrast to high-fat/salt food options. A validity and reliability study was conducted (Cronbach's alpha coefficient 0.68). The items of the scale consisting of 14 questions with 2 options take a value of -1 for unhealthy food and +1 for healthy food and the total score varies between -14 and +14. A high total score on the scale indicates healthy eating habits. Baseline and four weeks
Primary Change in Children's Dietary Self- Efficacy Scale (CDSS) It was developed to measure children's self-confidence to choose low-fat and low-salt foods despite the fatty and salty food options. A reliability and validity study was conducted (Cronbach's alpha coefficient 0.79). It is a 3-point Likert-type scale consisting of 15 items. Scale items can be scored between -1 and +1 (-1: not sure, 0: somewhat sure, +1: very sure) and the total score varies between -15 and +15. A high total score on the scale indicates a high self-efficacy value. Baseline and four weeks
Primary Change in Nutrition Attitude Subscale (NAS) It's the nutrition-related subscale of the Child Heart Health Promotion Attitude Scale, which normally consists of 4 subscales with 16 questions. The aim of the scale is to assess the heart health promotion attitudes of school-age children. The validity and reliability of this Likert-type scale has been studied (Cronbach's alpha coefficient 0.68). In the study, the scale consists of 4 questions and the scale items are scored as 1 "strongly disagree" and 4 "strongly agree" and the total score that can be obtained varies between a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 16 points. A high total score indicates a positive attitude. Baseline and four weeks
Secondary Change in The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) It is a food consumption frequency form with 16 nutrients. Participants were required to indicate the frequency of consumption of the specified foods and meals by selecting one of the following options: "every day (5), 5-6 days a week (4), 3-4 days a week (3), 1-2 days a week (2), 1-2 days a month (1) and never (0)". Baseline and four weeks
