More than 30 different dietary assessment tools were used, with only 40% of those using a validated/standardised assessment method. Half the studies collected outcomes of academic achievement objectively from a recognised educational authority, whereas 10 studies used self-reported measures. The dietary outcomes most commonly reported to have positive associations with academic achievement were: breakfast consumption (n = 12) and global diet quality/meal patterns (n = 7), whereas negative associations reported with junk/fast food (n = 9). Conclusions: This review highlights that moderate associations exist for dietary intakes characterised by regular breakfast consumption, lower intakes of energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods and overall diet quality with respect to outcomes of academic achievement. Future studies should consider the use of validated dietary assessment methods and standardised reporting of academic achievement.]]> Thu 20 Sep 2018 14:46:08 AEST ]]> Food addiction and associations with mental health symptoms: a systematic review with meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33255 Thu 20 Sep 2018 14:46:07 AEST ]]>
