Data & Research

To assist nutrition educators in their use of relevant research, FNA conducted a review of studies on: Message framing, Use of interactive technology to tailor messages, and Intervention intensity. The review was intended to document how these specific features of nutrition messages and interventions influence the likelihood of promoting more healthful food choices.

The WIC Nutrition Education Assessment Study was conducted by Abt Associates Inc. of Cambridge, Massachusetts, under contract with FNA. The study was designed by FNA to fill several important gaps in information about the nutrition education component of the WIC Program.
