Identifying the Structure and Elements of Nutritional Guidance Techniques: Cross-Sectional Analytic Hierarchy Study

This study identified 14 elements influencing nutritional guidance techniques in clinical practice and systematically visualized their interrelationships as a 6-level hierarchy using ISM. The resulting model provides an initial framework that may inform the development of clinical education curricula and competency evaluation frameworks for RDNs, and it could contribute to the advancement of standardized approaches in nutritional guidance education.
