项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Experts agree that improving the whole school food environment is an important strategy to confronting the obesity epidemic, yet the National School Breakfast Program (SBP) is a neglected area in the research literature. Unlike the school lunch program, participation in the SBP appears to uniquely protect against excessive weight gain. However, the SBP is underutilized nationally and less than half of low-income children participate. Currently, only 17.1% of students nationally participate in the SBP and participation decreases as grade levels increase with only 10.1% participation among high school students. Implementation and evaluation of strategies that expand and promote the SBP is a priority among national sponsors of school meals and anti-hunger advocates. The goals of this intervention study are to implement best practice strategies to expand and promote the SBP and test the impact upon 1) student participation rates, based on reimbursable meals served, 2) overall student caloric intake and diet quality and 3) body mass index and percent body fat in a random sample of 800 high school students in 16 rural Minnesota school districts. Best practice strategies drawn from federal and industry sources to expand SBP participation include improving access through school-wide policy and practice implementation (i.e., grab-n-go menu, service in the atrium) and promote participation by addressing normative and attitudinal beliefs through a school-wide SBP marketing campaign (i.e., foods taste good, school breakfast is for all students) and providing positive interactions that encourage eating school breakfast with social support from peers and school personnel (i.e., eating in the hallway, classroom). University Extension staff living in and serving the schools and communities will assist school food service directors with all aspects of SBP best practice implementation. This work is important because breakfast eating is positively associated with healthier weights, diet quality and academic performance among children and adolescents. The focus on rural schools is of particular importance as significantly fewer healthy food policies and practices exist in small town and rural schools than in urban or suburban schools. Furthermore, obesity rates among rural youth are as much as 50 percent higher than their urban counterparts. A team of investigators with expertise in successful implementation of multi- school trials, school-level interventions, and state of the art youth diet and anthropometry measures propose the following aims.

描述（由申请人提供）：专家同意，改善整个学校食物环境是面对肥胖流行病的重要策略，但是国立学校早餐计划（SBP）是研究文献中被忽视的领域。与学校午餐计划不同，参加SBP似乎可以独特地防止体重增加过多。但是，SBP在全国范围内未被充分利用，低收入儿童的一半参加。目前，只有17.1％的学生参加了SBP，并且随着年级水平的增加，参与下降，高中生的参与仅为10.1％。在学校餐饮和反猎人倡导者的国家赞助商中，扩展和促进SBP的战略的实施和评估是优先事项。这项干预研究的目标是实施最佳实践策略，以扩展和促进SBP并测试对1）对学生的参与率的影响，基于可提供的可报销餐，2）2）在16个Minnesota学区的800个高中生中的800名高中生中，学生的热量摄入量和饮食质量和3）随机样本中的体重指数和体重百分比。从联邦和行业来源提取以扩大SBP参与的最佳实践策略包括通过学校范围的政策和实践实施（即Grab-n-Go菜单，中庭服务）来改善访问权限，并通过解决学校范围的SBP营销活动（即，在学校的互动中提供良好的互动，促进学校的互动，并促进学校早餐的良好早餐，并为所有的互动提供服务，从而促进参与的，并促进学校的早餐，并促进良好的互动，并促进学校早餐的良好互动，以提供良好的早餐，以提供早餐的良好互动。（即，在走廊里吃饭，教室）。居住在学校和社区中的大学推广人员将协助学校食品服务总监，以实施SBP的各个方面。这项工作很重要，因为早餐饮食与儿童和青少年的体重，饮食质量和学业表现更健康相关。对农村学校的重点尤其重要，因为小镇和农村学校的健康食品政策和实践明显少于城市或郊区学校。此外，农村青年的肥胖率比城市同行高达50％。一组具有专业知识的研究人员在成功实施多学院试验，学校水平干预以及最先进的青年饮食和人体测量学措施的研究中提出了以下目的。
