Methods Taking the 2018 and 2019 preventive medicine undergraduates of Shanxi Medical University as the research object, the self-compiled questionnaire was used to conduct an online survey in May 2020. The basic information and data on diet pagoda KAP were collected and statistical analysis were conducted.

There was a statistically significant difference in the total KAP scores of students from different places of origin and monthly diet expenditure (P < 0.05). The attitude scores of girls were higher than boys, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the pagoda behavior scores of students with different genders, birthplaces, and monthly diet expenditures (P < 0.05). Among them, the scores of students with monthly dietary expenses <500 yuan were compared with those with 500-1000 yuan and >1000 yuan, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).
