dc.description The purpose was to find a relationship between eating behaviors of female adolescent ballet dancers and nutritional knowledge and attitudes of their parents. Four ballet schools agreed to participate. Female dancers ages 10 through 18 who took two ballet classes per week and the parent most responsible for meal preparations were selected as participants. One hundred and nine parent/dancer matched surveys were collected. Parental surveys tested nutritional attitudes and knowledge on components of a diet and daily allowances. Dancer surveys scored eating behaviors. Frequencies and correlations were computed to determine scores and found a general lack of parental knowledge. The only statistically significant finding in this study was the relationship between the dancer’s eating behaviors and their body mass index. In fact the parental knowledge and attitude scores were not found to be related to the dancer’s eating behaviors. en_US
