Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Survey
1. Study Design, Selection, and Recruitment of Participants
A cross-sectional study targeting all diet and nutrition teachers and school dietitians employed at public elementary and junior high schools, special needs schools, and related institutions across Hokkaido.
2. Data Collection Method
A self-administered questionnaire survey will be conducted using either a web-based form or an enclosed paper questionnaire. The estimated completion time is approximately 15 minutes.
3. Data Analysis Methods
Baseline demographic characteristics of the participants and response distributions for each item will be calculated to determine the overall status across Hokkaido.
Multivariable logistic regression analysis and other relevant statistical tests will be performed, designating assignment types (staffing models) and the proportion of working hours as independent variables, and the achievement of professional expertise and high levels of perceived difficulty as dependent variables. By adjusting for confounding factors such as age group and years of experience, the study will examine whether specific working environments statistically significantly hinder the exercise of professional expertise.
