description To confirm the applicability of the Health Action Process Approach in predicting and explaining the healthy dietary behavior of college students. Cross-sectional survey. The data were collected though the self-administrated questionnaires. Eight universities in Shanxi province, China. A total of 1,933 undergraduates were randomly selected using random cluster sampling from Shanxi, China (92.0% response; 31.7% males). Each variable was measured using questionnaires. Data were analyzed by 2-sample t test, linear correlation, and path analysis. Significance was set at P
