内容分析是一套定性和定量的方法，用于从口头，印刷或电子通信中收集和分析数据，在营养教育研究中有许多应用。来自访谈、焦点小组和开放式调查问题的文本信息可以使用内容分析进行评估。方法的选择取决于要分析的材料的类型和长度、期望的结果以及研究人员的偏好和技术能力。本文回顾了内容分析人员可用的选项——从手动到完全计算机化。建议克服使用这些方法所固有的挑战，因为它们在营养教育的基于信息的消息传递学科中很有用。
Content analysis is a set of qualitative and quantitative methods for collecting and analyzing data from verbal, print, or electronic communication with numerous applications in nutrition education research. Textual information from interviews, focus groups, and open-ended survey questions can be evaluated using content analysis. Selection of method(s) depends on the type(s) and length of material to be analyzed, results desired, and researchers' preferences and technological capabilities. This article reviews options available to content analysts-from manual to fully computerized. Overcoming the challenges inherent in using these methodologies is recommended because of their usefulness in the information-based messaging discipline of nutrition education.
