AB  - BACKGROUND: Food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) have been developed and 
      validated for various populations. To our knowledge, however, no FFQ has been 
      validated for young athletes. Here, we investigated whether an FFQ that was 
      developed and validated to estimate dietary intake in middle-aged persons was 
      also valid for estimating that in young athletes. METHODS: We applied an FFQ that 
      had been developed for the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Cohort 
      Study with modification to the duration of recollection. A total of 156 
      participants (92 males) completed the FFQ and a 3-day non-consecutive 24-hour 
      dietary recall (24hDR). Validity of the mean estimates was evaluated by 
      calculating the percentage differences between the 24hDR and FFQ. Ranking 
      estimation was validated using Spearman's correlation coefficient (CC), and the 
      degree of miscategorization was determined by joint classification. RESULTS: The 
      FFQ underestimated energy intake by approximately 10% for both males and females. 
      For 35 nutrients, the median (range) deattenuated CC was 0.30 (0.10 to 0.57) for 
      males and 0.32 (-0.08 to 0.62) for females. For 19 food groups, the median 
      (range) deattenuated CC was 0.32 (0.17 to 0.72) for males and 0.34 (-0.11 to 
      0.58) for females. For both nutrient and food group intakes, cross-classification 
      analysis indicated extreme miscategorization rates of 3% to 5%. CONCLUSIONS: An 
      FFQ developed and validated for middle-aged persons had comparable validity among 
      young athletes. This FFQ might be useful for assessing habitual dietary intake in 
      collegiate athletes, especially for calcium, vitamin C, vegetables, fruits, and 
      milk and dairy products.
