A Randomized School Trial of Environmental Strategies to Encourage Fruit and Vegetable Consumption among Children
Abstract
The Cafeteria Power Plus project examined whether a cafeteria-based intervention would increase the fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption of children. Twenty-six schools were randomly assigned to either an intervention or control condition. Baseline lunch observations of a sample ( N = 1668) of first- and third-grade students occurred in the spring of 2000; follow-up was in the spring of 2002. The intervention took place during two consecutive school years beginning in the fall of 2000 and consisted of daily activities (increasing the availability, attractiveness, and encouragement for FV) and special events (kick-offs, samplings, challenge weeks, theater production, and finale meal). Training of food-service staff and cook managers was ongoing throughout the intervention phase. Students in the intervention schools significantly increased their total fruit intake. Process measures indicated that verbal encouragement by food-service staff was associated with outcomes. The outcomes suggest that multicomponent interventions are more powerful than cafeteria programs alone with this age group.

“For example, one study found that children consumed more vegetables during lunch when cafeteria staff gave them a choice of which vegetable to eat (Perry et al., 2004).”

“Additionally, the previously mentioned multi-component study by Perry and colleagues found that taste tests combined with more fruit and vegetable choices and choice architecture techniques was associated with an increase in fruit and vegetable consumption [48].”

“Using the same measure of consumption, the previously described study by Perry and colleagues found that rewards (i.e., frozen yogurt for the classroom), as well as taste tests and more fruit and vegetable choices, were associated with an increase in fruit and vegetable consumption [48].”

“For risk of bias due to baseline imbalances, the majority of studies (n = 11) were assessed as low risk as studies accounted for imbalances by making adjustments for baseline differences during analyses, stratifying by school characteristics or through random allocation of schools to experimental groups [37, 38, 41, 46, 47, 55, 56, 58, 60, 64, 67].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
