Nutrition has been implicated in the quality of life of older adults, beyond proving essential nutrients and calories. Recent concern about malnutrition has prompted a broader social-psychological approach to nutrition and aging research. The present investigation examined the relationship of self-actualization and social support to dietary intake. Data from 100 community-dwelling adults, ages 60-83 years, revealed significant and positive associations between the predictor variables and vitamin A, B vitamin complex, iron, and dietary fiber. Specifically, the personality trait of being internally motivated and the presence of support from family, friends and neighbors were found to positively influence dietary quality.
