Objective: This research was conducted to evaluate the relationship between the breakfast habits of students and their chronotypes. Material and Methods: The research, which was carried out as a cross-sectional study, was carried out with the participation of parents with children in 6-12 age range between December 21st, 2018 and May 18th, 2019 by the online survey method. Socio-Demographic and Breakfast Habits Survey Form and Children's Chrono type Questionnaire were used as data collection tools. A total of 431 parents (77% mothers, mean age: 40.61±6.51, 61.5% daughters, children's mean age: 10.1±1.9) were included in the study. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant in the evaluation. Results: It was determined that 4.4% of the intermediate type children and 15.7% of the E-type children did not have breakfast on weekdays. It was found that 10.4% of the E-type children did not have breakfast at the weekend. E-type students were found to be skipping breakfast (SB) both on weekdays and at weekends. In the split-day schooling hours practice, morning students (attending school from 07.00 to 13.00) were determined to be SB much more on weekdays. It was found that children had a higher risk of skipping the weekday breakfast as weekday sleep decreased, and the risk of skipping the weekend breakfast was higher as the weekend sleep periods increased. Conclusion: Health service providers are recommended to evaluate the sleep, chronotype and breakfast habits of children and their families and involve families in health promotion interventions regarding breakfast consumption.

Amaç: Bu araştırma, öğrencilerin kahvaltı alışkanlıkları ile kronotipleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kesitsel bir çalışma olarak yürütülen araştırma, 21 Aralık 2018-18 Mayıs 2019 tarihleri arasında 6-12 yaş aralığında çocuğu olan ebeveynlerin katılımıyla çevrim içi anket yöntemiyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak sosyodemografik ve Kahvaltı Alışkanlığı Anket Formu ve Çocukluk Dönemi Kronotip Anketi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmaya toplam 431 (%77 anne, yaş ortalaması: 40,61±6,51, %61,5 kız çocuğu, çocukların yaş ortalaması: 10,1±1,9) ebeveyn dâhil edilmiştir. p<0,05 değerlendirmede istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Ara tip çocukların %4,4'ünün, E tipi çocukların ise %15,7'sinin hafta içi kahvaltı yapmadığı belirlenmiştir. E tipi çocukların %10,4'ünün hafta sonu kahvaltı yapmadığı saptanmıştır. E tipi öğrencilerin hem hafta içi hem de hafta sonu kahvaltıyı atladıkları tespit edilmiştir. Bölünmüş okul saatleri uygulamasında sabah 07.00-13.00 saatleri arasında okula giden öğrencilerin hafta içi kahvaltıyı daha fazla atladıkları belirlenmiştir. Çocukların hafta içi uykuları azaldıkça hafta içi kahvaltıyı atlama riskinin, hafta sonu uyku süreleri arttıkça hafta sonu kahvaltısını atlama riskinin daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Sağlık hizmet sunucularının çocukların ve ailelerinin uyku, kronotip ve kahvaltı alışkanlıklarını değerlendirmeleri ve kahvaltı tüketimine ilişkin sağlığı geliştirme müdahalelerine aileleri dâhil etmeleri önerilmektedir.
