Abstract：Objective To investigate the current status of breakfast among rural left-behind children receiving compulsory education in Shaanxi, to analyze its influencing factors, and to provide references for revising national policies related to nutrition improvement and improving rural children’s health. Methods With a stratified cluster random sampling method, 7 key monitored countries/districts in Shaanxi Province in 2019 were selected. According to three modes of serving a meal based on canteens of schools, enterprises (units) and families (individual), 2 primary schools and 2 junior middle schools were randomly selected from schools with each mode of serving a meal. The surveyed subjects were students from Grade 3 to Grade 9. 1-2 classes were extracted from each grade, ensuring about 40 students in a class, with half boys and half girls. On-site questionnaire survey on eating behavior was conducted. Results Among the students surveyed, 55.8% ate breakfast every day, and the proportion of students never having breakfast was 6.42%. Multi-factor analysis indicated that left-behind children who lived in schools, girls, students from Grades 4-6 in primary schools, students from northern Shaanxi, and students with both parents to work outside showed higher proportion of eating breakfast every day (P<0.05). The proportion of left-behind children never having breakfast every day was lower than that of non-left-behind children (4.97% vs. 8.58%, χ2=26.16, P<0.001). Staple foods (66.5%), fresh vegetables (35.2%), eggs (34.9%), dairy (29.1%) and beans (23.1%) were the top five breakfast foods. The proportions of left-behind children eating fruits, beans, meat and eggs for breakfast were 9.9%, 21.6%, 15.0% and 33.7% respectively, which were all less than those of non-left-behind children (13.0%, 25.3%, 18.1% and 36.9%, respectively) (all P<0.05). Conclusions The overall breakfast frequency and food structure rationality of rural left-behind children receiving compulsory education in Shaanxi are lower than those of non-left-behind children, and their behavior regarding having breakfast is affected by accommodation, gender, school period, region and parents to work outside.
