Nutritional knowledge was measured using a multiple-choice test, and food choice attitudes were assessed using the Food Choice Questionnaire (FCQ). Prerequisite test results indicated that the data were normally distributed and homogeneous. The Pearson Product Moment obtained a result of correlation coefficient is 0.446, indicating a moderate correlation. Nutritional knowledge contributed 19.89% to food choice attitudes. From this study, it can be concluded that there is a positive relationship between nutritional knowledge and food choice attitudes.
