Article Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine how a brief culinary medicine curriculum impacted medical students' nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy and to evaluate which parts of the curriculum students found to be most helpful. This preliminary intervention study enrolled participants in a 2-week culinary medicine elective course and measured pre- and post-elective. Students attending an Appalachian medical school ( = 16) participated in this study. Participants were surveyed on their nutrition knowledge, self-efficacy in providing nutrition advice, and attitudes towards use of nutrition in practice pre- and post-elective. Participants also completed elective evaluations following the course. Changes in mean outcome scores were measured pre- and post-elective using signed Wilcoxon tests. Alpha was set at .05. Frequencies of responses were calculated to determine which course components were ranked highest in their efficacy. Nutrition knowledge and self-efficacy increased significantly from pre- to post-elective ( < .0001 and < .0001, respectively). Students valued the hands-on and culinary components of the course most. Results indicate that a brief culinary medicine curriculum can effectively improve medical students' knowledge and self-efficacy of nutrition counseling and that students prefer hands-on and applied learning when learning about nutrition.
