43.	20382 Assessing Eating Habits of the Elderly
	This 5-page graduate paper examines eating habits of the elderly by outlining a study, which includes a one page introduction and review of literature, a one page description of accurate data collection, a one page data report, a one page report format, and a one page conclusion and results discussion. This paper outlines a study which surveys, interviews, and develops the eating menus of a sample group of individuals 60 years of age or older. The study aims to uncover the factors behind poor eating habits among the elderly. Results suggest that most of the participants do have poor eating habits, with men seeming more vulnerable to nutrient-poor foods and excess eating, and women seeming more prone to inadequate nutrition intake. In both cases, illness seems a leading cause of poor nutrition habits, especially as it leads to a poor sense of well-being and decreased mobility. Education and budget seem to have a less important impact on dietary habits among the elderly, as most participants of the study seemed secure in their food resources and seemed to have a good grasp of basic nutritional concepts such as food groups and the importance of food variety, even if their food choices showed little inclination to apply this knowledge.

46.	21290 The Relationship Between Food Habits, Attitudes, Nutritional Information, and Obesity among Female College Students in Kuwait: Literature Review and Methodology
	This 5-page graduate paper provides a literature review and methodology for a research project regarding the connection between nutritional knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours of Kuwaiti female college students in relation to obesity. This paper suggests that current literature about this subject suggests that individuals in Kuwait and other Gulf countries have been facing increasing rates of obesity, possibly because increased prosperity and modernization have contributed to lifestyles that contribute to obesity. Some researchers have suggested that nutrition habits and attitudes about food develop during the college years. Thus, a number of recent projects have stressed rated of obesity among Kuwaiti college students. Some researchers have been exploring rates of obesity among female college students, who are more affected by changing perceptions of body image and are more inclined to respond to food and diet in an emotional manner. Despite this trend in recent literature, more research needs to be done regarding the impact of female Kuwaiti college students’ nutritional knowledge, altitudes and habits on obesity rates. Studies currently remain inconclusive regarding the amount of knowledge these students possess about obesity. The link between these students’ nutritional attitudes and food behaviours also remains undefined. For this reason, this paper proposes a three-month questionnaire-based research study which shall question female students at Kuwait’s Public Authority for Applied Training and Education regarding their awareness of fundamental aspects of obesity and nutrition. The study will also aim to uncover attitudes regarding obesity. Finally, the study will aim to uncover any connections which appear between these stated attitudes and knowledge and actual behaviours towards obesity.
