Abstract:

A computer tutorial on nutritional assessment was developed and used with three different groups of health professions students. Complete data were available for 45 nursing students, 36 physician assistant students, and 68 physical therapy students. Overall for the three groups there was a significant increase (p < 0.0001) from pretest to posttest scores. This increase was not significantly different among the groups, suggesting that a single computer tutorial can be used effectively to teach basics of nutritional assessment to different groups of health professions students and allow sharing of cost for computer instruction among programs.
