Crosssectional Analysis of Hospital Cafeterias: An Approved Study Following the Paying Habits of Roommates and the Relief of Skorich


Abstract

This cross-sectional analysis study aimed to investigate the paying habits of roommates and the relief of Skorich in hospital cafeterias. The study was approved by the institutional review board and conducted in three hospitals in the United States. A total of 500 participants were recruited, consisting of hospital employees, patients, and visitors. Data was collected using a self-administered questionnaire that included questions on payment methods, frequency of visits to the cafeteria, and satisfaction with the quality and variety of food options. The results showed that the majority of participants paid for their own meals, with only a small percentage reporting sharing the cost with a roommate. Additionally, the study found that the relief of Skorich, which refers to the tendency to make impulsive purchases when feeling stressed or emotionally overwhelmed, was not significantly associated with payment habits or cafeteria satisfaction. These findings have implications for hospital cafeteria management and suggest that efforts should be made to encourage individual payment and improve the overall quality and variety of food options.
