    Content analysis effectively quantified nutritional care plans from dietetic students. This method can enhance dietetic education by bridging theoretical knowledge with practical patient care applications.

    Area of Science:

    • Dietetics and Nutrition Education
    • Health Services Research

    Background:

    • Nutritional care plans are crucial for patient outcomes.
    • Evaluating the quality of student-developed plans is essential for effective training.
    • Existing evaluation methods may not fully capture the complexity of nutritional care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To quantify the content of nutritional care plans developed by senior dietetic students.
    • To assess the effectiveness of content analysis as an evaluation tool.
    • To explore the utility of content analysis in dietetic education.

    Main Methods:

    • Content analysis techniques were employed to quantify plan content.
    • Six subject matter categories (cultural, economic, physical, psychological, religious, social) were used for organization.

  • An average score from six coders determined the final content evaluation.

    • Main Results:

    • Content analysis proved effective in quantifying the components of nutritional care plans.
    • The method allowed for systematic evaluation across sociocultural and physical factors.
    • The study demonstrated the feasibility of using this technique with student-generated plans.

    Conclusions:

    • Content analysis is a viable and effective method for evaluating nutritional care plans.
    • This technique can be integrated into dietetic education to improve practical skill development.
    • Further utilization can help students translate academic learning into real-world patient care scenarios.
