All quantitative studies that conducted statistical analyses ( = 15) reported a statistically significant relationship between the campus food environment and dietary intake, including both positive and negative effects. All qualitative studies ( = 10) discussed students' experience of the campus food environment influencing their diet. : This review found moderate evidence that the campus food environment has an impact on postsecondary students' dietary behaviors.
