Food access, dietary acculturation, and food insecurity among international tertiary education students: a scoping review protocol.
This scoping review aims to synthesize existing evidence on dietary changes and food security status of international students who attend tertiary education facilities. Factors affecting nutrition and health, academic and psychological outcomes will also be examined. ⋯ The electronic databases, including MEDLINE, CINAHL, ERIC, Global Health, CENTRAL and PsycINFO, will be searched. The language of articles will be limited to English. A three-step strategy will be employed for screening. Two reviewers will conduct screening and data extraction. A draft data charting form will be used to extract data from included studies and modified as required for the final extraction. The patterns of dietary changes and food security status with influencers will be charted and summarized.
