Abstract:
This study reports high school students' attitude toward the school lunch program. Students were randomly selected to participate in a study of factors affecting school lunch participation in the Cincinnati Public Schools (N = 1,804). Using a questionnaire, students were asked their opinions, feelings, and attitudes toward the program. Results showed that the quality and variety of food offered were significant factors affecting the students' decision to participate. The length of the lunch period and the amount of time spent waiting in line also were significant factors.
