Abstract：To know the nutrition cognitive level and its effective factors of the rural children’s guardians in Hanchuan. Methods According to the stratified and cluster sampling principle, 889 guardians of pupils (grades 3-6) in two rural elementary schools of Hanchuan were selected. Data were obtained by a self-designed questionnaire survey. Results The overall nutritional cognitive level of the rural children’s guardians was low. The percentage of individuals whose score for nutrition cognition reached 80% was 24.07%, manifesting as the mean awareness rate of nutritional knowledge was 66.64%, especially in aspects of the sources of nutrient and the acknowledge of nutritional deficiency, while the dietary behaviors and the nutrition attitude were better. Educational level was the significant factor of the guardians’ nutritional cognition. The guardians’ practical and desired sources of nutrition were both mainly from television networks, professionals, newspapers and magazines. Conclusion Obvious loopholes exist in the nutritional knowledge structure of rural pupil guardians. Various and comprehensive nutrition education should be developed among guardians, especially to those with low education degree, to promote the health and sound growth of rural school-aged children.[Key words]Children’s guardian; Nutrition cognition; Investigation
