Nutritional knowledge, attitude and practice play an important role in maintaining the health and quality of life of society. Adolescence is a critical period in the development of these factors and can lead to a healthy lifestyle in adulthood. Therefore, the aim of the current research was to investigate the nutritional knowledge, attitude and performance of male and female high school students in Kermanshah.
The present study was a descriptive research in which 840 male students and 486 female students completed the nutritional knowledge, attitude and practice questionnaire online. One-sample Wilcoxon non-parametric statistical test was used to compare the sample mean with standard values. Also, in order to compare nutritional knowledge, attitude and performance between female and male students, the non-parametric U-Mann-Whitney statistical test was used.
The results of the research showed that in male students, the average nutritional knowledge, attitude and performance were significantly lower than the standard values. In female students, the average knowledge, attitude and nutritional performance were significantly lower than standard values. Also, the results showed that the average nutritional attitude and performance of boys was significantly higher than that of girls.
