Background: Food insecurity is a longstanding public health issue that has adverse effects on both physical and mental health and activities of daily living (Payne-Sturges et al., 2017). Food insecurity includes limited access or uncertainty in the availability of nutritionally adequate and safe food or limited ability to acquire acceptable foods in socially acceptable ways due to lack of money or other resources (Payne-Sturges et al., 2017). Food insecurity is prevalent in college students. However, there is limited research that recognizes food insecurity of collegiate athletes specifically (Abbey et al., 2022). The "Food Insecurity, Academic and Athletic Performance of Collegiate Athletes Survey" aims to assess food insecurity among collegiate athletes and determine whether there is an association between food insecurity and perceived academic and athletic performance of collegiate athletes. Methods: This cross-sectional study utilizes one survey to collect all data; the survey is composed of 76 questions from three validated surveys and demographic questions (NEMS-P survey, USDA Food Security Adult Survey Questionnaire, and the IFIS Self-reported physical fitness test) (n=76). The survey was distributed to current collegiate athletes through email, and scannable QR code advertisements. Survey distribution began in March 2022 and concluded August 2022. Data was collected using Qualtrics survey method and analyzed using STATA data analysis software. Results: Overall (43.75%) of the respondents were male, and (56.25%) of the respondents were female. Of the respondents, (10.94%) were 17-18 years old, (39.06%) 19-20, (25.00%) 20-21, (20.31%) 22-23, (4.69%) 23-24; no respondents were 24-25 years old or older. The majority of the students racial or ethnic identification were identified as Caucasian, or Black or African American. The results showed a significant association between worrying about food and academic performance (p=.0006), and athletic performance (p<.000), food not lasting and athletic performance (p<.000), and not being able to afford balanced meals and academic (p=.0006) and athletic performance (p<.000). There was also a significant association between cutting the size of meals or eating less and athletic performance (p=.006) and going hungry due to lack of income and athletic performance (p<.000). Conclusion: Overall, there was a positive association between food insecurity and perceived academic and athletic performance. Assessing food insecurity and academic and athletic performance has the potential to shape policy development and highlight where resources are needed to support student-athletes who are food insecure. Although many current interventions and programs are intended to be easily accessible and available for students, the findings of this study suggest there is a strong need for increased student support programs or greater advertisement. Eliminating or decreasing the occurrences of food insecurity among student athletes has the potential to positively impact academic and athletic performance. Keywords: collegiate athlete, food insecurity, food security, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, speed/agility, flexibility, sports nutrition.
