本文旨在确定美国大学生的生活安排是否会影响饮食多样性和其他健康行为，采用广义线性模型评估不同生活安排的学生之间的差异。结果显示，校外学生更容易超重/肥胖，消费更多的酒精，吸烟比那些住在校园或与父母。与住在校外的学生相比，住在校内的学生消耗更多种类的水果，蔬菜和乳制品。那些住在校外的人比那些和父母住在一起的人摄入的谷物种类要少。三组之间在肉类、肉类替代品或零食的种类上没有显著差异。为了预防未来的慢性病，健康教育工作者应针对校外学生，以改善饮食和生活方式的行为。(C)2008爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The purpose of this paper is to determine if living arrangements influence dietary variety and other health behaviors among American college students, A generalized linear model was used to assess differences between students in various living arrangements. Results showed that off-campus students were more likely to be overweight/obese, consume more alcohol, and smoke than those who lived on-campus or with parents. Compared to students who lived off-campus, those who lived on-campus consumed a larger variety of fruits, vegetables, and dairy products. Those who lived off-campus consumed less variety of grains compared to those who lived with parents. There were no significant differences in variety of meat, meat alternatives, or snacks between the three groups. To prevent future chronic diseases, health educators should target off-campus students to improve dietary and lifestyle behaviors. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
