Implementation of competitive food and beverage standards in a sample of Massachusetts Schools: the NOURISH Study (Nutrition Opportunities to Understand Reforms Involving Student Health).
This study examined the extent to which a sample of Massachusetts middle schools and high schools sold foods and beverages that were compliant with the state competitive food and beverage standards after the first year of implementation, and complied with four additional aspects of the regulation. The multilevel models used in the study demonstrated a 47-percentage-point increase in food and 46-percentage-point increase in beverage compliance in Massachusetts schools from 2012 to 2013.
