Figure 1. The cumulative percent of student responses for each of the 6 survey items before and after the nutrition session. Responses were collapsed into 3 ordinal categories: Strongly Disagree/Disagree (red), Neither Agree nor Disagree (yellow), and Strongly Agree/Agree (green). There was a significant improvement in student’s self-perceived knowledge, comfort, and confidence completing a nutritional assessment with a patient (all p-values < 0.001), but no change in student’s beliefs about the importance of nutritional counseling and the role of the physician in the process.
