A survey of the dietary food intake was also made. Fifth grade students in Granite School District, Salt Lake City, Utah, were the participants. A pretest and a postest were used to determine the effect of the program. The tests showed that cognitive knowledge increased in many areas, attitudes became more positive and there was little improvement in dietary intake. Dietary intake was low in fruits, vegetables and milk but adequate in meat. 1976-05-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/3222 https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4229&context=etd Copyright for this work is held by the author.
