  • Title: Nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and fat consumption.
    Author: Shepherd R, Stockley L.
    Journal: J Am Diet Assoc; 1987 May; 87(5):615-9. PubMed ID: 3571779.
    Abstract:
    A questionnaire on nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and consumption of foods contributing highly to fat in the diet of United Kingdom residents was completed by 210 subjects. Personal attitudes were found to be good predictors of consumption and much more important than perceived social pressure from other persons. Women, subjects in the 26- to 45-year age group, and those of higher socioeconomic class tended to have more negative attitudes toward consumption of such foods. Nutrition knowledge was not found to relate to attitudes or to consumption of the foods.
