Hey, I'm Katie Eddingfield!  I'm a Junior at the University of Dayton and a Nutrition and Fitness Major.  This website has been made for my HSS 226 class and I would appreciate it if you would take my survey to help contribute to my research!

The purpose of my study is to better understand the breakfast-eating habits of women who complete this survey. Scholarly and popular literature report numerous reasons why people might elect to skip breakfast. The most prevalent reason reported is the desire to lose weight. By analyzing of the responses people provide to my survey, I will be able to compare our results to what is reported in the scholarly literature.

The results will be posted on this website in early December.
Thank you very much for your time and please COMPLETE THE SURVEY and check back in December for the results!

My Contact Info is also available if you have any questions or would like to hear about how the study is going.
