This study aimed at determining the effect of an educational program on nutritional behavior of female students (8- to 10-yearolds) in Chabahar, Iran.

In order to perform the study, 65 female students were selected through simple sampling method and enrolled in the study. Data were collected by a questionnaire consisting of 4 parts, including demographic information and questions concerning nutrition knowledge, attitude and behavior, which was completed before the intervention, immediately, and 2 months after the last intervention. The intervention program was conducted through lectures and using multimedia equipment in three 30-minute sessions. Repeated measures and chi-square tests were applied via the SPSS-16 software to analyze the data.

However, attitude and behavior of the students were not significantly different (P<0.05). Conclusions: The results showed that the educational program could increase knowledge of the students after 2 months. Further research is required to show the effects of the program on attitudes and behaviors.
