چکیده مقاله:
Background and Objective: Nutrition literacy is a concept that improves individuals' diet quality, and quality of life and contributes to enhancing their general health by using and interpreting nutrition-related information correctly. This study purposed to determine the nutritional literacy and quality of life levels of university students and relate them with anthropometric measurements.Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study and was conducted with ۳۷۴ university students over the age of ۱۸ at a state university. Nutrition literacy was assessed by using the Evaluation Instrument of Nutrition Literacy on Adults (EINLA), and quality of life was evaluated with the World Health Organization's Quality of Life Questionnaire (Turkish_WHOQOL-BREF). Waist, middle-upper arm, neck circumference, body weight, and height were measured in accordance with appropriate techniques by researchers. Independent t and One-Way ANOVA tests were used to determine differences between two and more than two mean values. Pearson correlation analysis was used to detect relationships between scores of total EINLA, its sections, total Turkish_WHOQOL-BREF and its dimensions, and other variables.Results: The mean EINLA and WHOQOL-BREF scores of the participants were ۲۵.۳±۴.۷ (borderline) and ۵۴.۳±۱۵.۱, respectively. While the EINLA score varied according to gender, faculty (health sciences vs others), and degree (۱ to ۴), the WHOQOL-BREF score varied according to gender and living place (home vs dormitory). EINLA and WHOQOL-BREF scores of BMI (underweight to obese), waist circumference, and neck circumference (normal vs at risk) groups were not different. It was found positive significant relationships between the second section of EINLA (reading comprehension and interpretation) and psychological health, the third section of EINLA (food groups), and social relationships (p<۰.۰۵).Conclusion: Nutrition literacy, anthropometric measurements, and quality of life of university students are affected by a multifactorial situation.
