This was a non-randomized repeated measures design. The study was conducted at two different middle schools, one California public school (CPS, n = 29) and one Ohio private school (OPS, n = 19). The schools differed by time, frequency, and intervention. The interval times (IT) difference was 35-minutes for CPS and 45-minutes for OPS. The frequency of IT differed by the school; CPS accomplished conducting all IT within one week versus OPS who completed IT once a week for three consecutive weeks. Interventions differed by the school as well, CPS studied the effects of MBT alone whereas OPS incorporated using MBT alone than with the nutrition education. Thus, IT were compared individually for each school. The same snack items were provided and measured via digital photography during all IT. MBT was practiced at CPS to evaluate if it would inadvertently change snack nutrient intakes but did not display significant changes. Conversely, the study conducted at OPS was intended to determine the effects of including nutrition education along with the MBT practice. OPS was shown to have significantly influenced snack nutrient intakes through a significant increase for polyunsaturated fat (p < 0.009) and monounsaturated fat (p < 0.001), and a significant decrease in sodium (p < 0.038) and iron (p < 0.012). Since the combination of MBT with nutrition education was the only intervention to produce significant changes in nutrient intake, more research is needed on adolescents snacking behaviors to justify incorporating MBT with nutrition education into school curriculums. 2018-08-23 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1532710829449266 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1532710829449266 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
