Studi dilakukan di SMAN 1 Padang pada bulan November 2013 terhadap 116 siswa kelas XII. Desain penelitian bersifat analitik dengan desain cross sectional. Pengolahan data dilakukan dengan uji chi-square menggunakan sistem komputerisasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan tingkat konsentrasi menggunakan digit symbol test antara siswa dengan asupan energi sarapan baik, kurang, dan sangat kurang (p=0,001) dan tidak terdapat perbedaan tingkat konsentrasi menggunakan digit span test antara siswa dengan asupan energi sarapan baik, kurang, dan sangat kurang (p=0,345). Terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara asupan energi sarapan dengan tingkat konsentrasi menggunakan digit symbol test (p<0,05).
