Abstract
El objetivo de la presente investigación fue determinar el nivel de conocimiento y
actitudes sobre alimentación saludable en adultos mayores del Centro de Salud
Magdalena de Cao. Este estudio es de tipo cuantitativo, transversal, descriptivo y
correlacional que se realizará en 140 adultos del Centro de Salud de Magdalena de Cao y
su selección se analizará mediante el método probabilístico. Para la recolección de datos
se aplicó dos cuestionarios titulados ̈Cuestionario De Actitudes Sobre La Alimentación
Saludable¨ y ̈Cuestionario de Nivel de Conocimiento Sobre La Alimentación Saludable¨.
La validez de los instrumentos se determinó mediante juicio de expertos conformado por
dos licenciadas en enfermería y una licenciada en nutrición, y la confiabilidad a través de
la prueba piloto de alfa de Cronbach, arrojando valores de 0,829 y 0,817 respectivamente
para ambos instrumentos. Para el procesamiento de los datos de la investigación se
empleó el programa SPSS versión 25; se obtuvo mediante las encuestas que el 72,8% de
los adultos mayores presentaron un nivel de conocimiento bueno, mientras que el 27.2%
obtuvieron un nivel regular, respecto a la segunda encuesta se encontró que el 77.7% tuvo
actitud positiva y el 22.3% actitud negativa. En conclusión se encontró un coeficiente de
Correlación de Spearman (r=0,825). determinando que existe relación directa altamente
significativa y de intensidad alta entre las variables de estudio
The objective of this research was to determine the level of knowledge and attitudes about healthy eating in older adults of the Magdalena de Cao Health Center. This study is a quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study to be conducted in 140 adults of the Magdalena de Cao Health Center and its selection will be analyzed using the probabilistic method. For data collection, two questionnaires entitled ̈Cuestionario De Actitudes Sobre La Alimentación Saludable¨ and ̈Cuestionario de Nivel de Conocimiento Sobre La Alimentación Saludable¨ were applied. The validity of the instruments was determined by expert judgment made up of two nursing graduates and a nutrition graduate, and the reliability through the Cronbach's alpha pilot test, yielding values of 0.829 and 0.817 respectively for both instruments. For the processing of the research data, the SPSS version 25 program was used; it was obtained through the surveys that 72.8% of the older adults presented a good level of knowledge, while 27.2% obtained a fair level, with respect to the second survey it was found that 77.7% had a positive attitude and 22.3% a negative attitude. In conclusion, a Spearman correlation coefficient (r=0.825) was found, determining that there is a highly significant direct relationship of high intensity between the study variables
