Summary:碩士 === 元培醫事科技大學 === 醫務管理系碩士在職專班 === 107 === The national nutritional status reflects the status of national development and social condition. The special physiological and nutritional needs of women of childbearing age, their nutritional status affects the daily intake of six major types of food, healthy eating behavior and risk of rickets for individuals or family members. This study aims to apply the Transtheoretical model of education intervention strategy on women's nutritional literacy. The research method adopts the quasi-experimental design among 128 female students divided into experimental and control groups of a medical science and technology university in Hsinchu City. The experimental group conducted Transtheoretical model nutrition education intervention, and the control group conducted traditional teaching method. This research tool was pre-tested, the reliability and validity were examined, and the covariate analysis was performed with SPSS 20.0. The results of which are summarized as follows: The pre-test and answer rate of nutrition cognition is 75%. The stage of dietary uptake behavior was 22.7% in the absence of intention period, 15.5% in the intention period, 20.5% in the preparation period, 24.5% in the action period, and 16.9% in the maintenance period. Study subjects 99% have weekly food, irregular breakfast and snack habits. 84.4% drink sugary drinks every week, 61.7% eat fried food every week, and 85.2% irregular exercise. The results showed that nutritional knowledge was positively correlated with dietary behavior change and dietary self-efficacy; dietary sharing decision-making was positively correlated with dietary decision-making balance; dietary behavior change was positively correlated with dietary self-efficacy. The joint explanatory power of exercise habits, dietary behavior changes, and dietary self-efficacy on nutrition knowledge is 39.7%. Dietary self-efficacy, eating healthy food habits, nutritional knowledge, and the frequency of drinking sugary drinks on dietary behavior change were 97.8%. Eating habits of eating healthy foods and drinking sugary drinks have a negative correlation with changes in eating behaviors. Dietary self-efficacy can affect nutritional knowledge and dietary change behavior. After interventions in the nutritional education strategy across the theoretical model, there has been a significant increase in nutritional knowledge, shared decision making(SDM), decisional balance, stage of behavior change, and self-efficacy. The results of this study can be used as a reference for future research and practical work related to nutritional literacy.
