Overview
Bauer/Liou's updated, full-color NUTRITION COUNSELING & EDUCATION SKILL DEVELOPMENT, 5th Edition, helps entry-level nutritional professionals develop a solid foundation in counseling, education principles and evaluation methodologies. The books step-by-step approach includes case studies and first-person accounts, giving students opportunities to practice new skills. Students learn to translate theoretical perspectives on nutrition counseling into actual effective dialogues that have the power to influence client knowledge, skills and attitudes. Practical guidelines for using telehealth, social media and starting a private practice are included. This text works seamlessly with the MindTap digital learning platform, featuring interactive videos, case studies and review questions to engage students in learning and applying fundamental skills.
- Reflecting the latest research and practice in the field, the book incorporates new coverage on starting a private practice, using social media and practicing telehealth.
- UPDATED GUIDELINES: This edition includes updated professional standards, government guidelines and research findings such as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics' Nutrition Care Process, 2024 Scope and Standards of Practice, 2022 ACEND Accreditation Standards and the 2023 Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Approaches To Ethical Decision-Making.
- In order to improve nutrition counseling and education outcomes, some of the new topics incorporated into various chapters include an emphasis on cultural sensitivity and awareness, fostering implementation of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA) Action Plan. Throughout the book, students learn about evidence-based best practices, practicing what they have learned in guided activities and engage in reflective activities to better understand and utilize concepts.
- PRACTICAL EXAMPLES: Recognizing that nutrition education and counseling takes place in a variety of settings, the authors provide concrete examples, case studies and first-person accounts that represent a variety of wellness, private practice and institutional settings.
- ACTION-BASED LEARNING: Exercises integrated into the text allow students to interact with chapter concepts and can be assigned individually or used as classroom activities. Chapter review questions and a culminating assignment that integrate all or most of the major topics covered, deepen student understanding. Assignments can be used as written or modified to meet instructors' needs. The final assignment in Chapter 10, Group Counseling, can be used as an example.
- EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES: These approaches, grounded in behavior change models and theories found to be effective for educational and counseling interventions, are analyzed and integrated into the book's skill-development exercises.
- BEHAVIOR CHANGE ACTIVITIES: These activities help students process and learn how the models and theories are commonly used in nutrition counseling, education and research. All theories and counseling approaches, including Motivational Interviewing and the Transtheoretical Model, are covered in detail in Chapter 2 and integrated into appropriate places throughout the book.
- GUIDED COUNSELING INTERVENTION: The final chapter consists of a four-week guided nutrition counseling intervention that demonstrates how the book's theoretical discussions, practice activities and nutrition tools can be effectively integrated and applied.
