Objective To assess tracking of energy and nutrient intakes between adolescence and young adulthood. Design Longitudinal study of a random sample of adolescents (aged 15 years at baseline). The extent of tracking of dietary intakes (assessed by diet history) was investigated using weighted kappa statistics (κ). Setting Northern Ireland population survey. Subjects Adolescents who participated in the Young Hearts Project, Northern Ireland at age 15 years, and subsequently at young adulthood aged between 20 and 25 years ( n = 245 males, n = 231 females). Results Despite overall increases in height and weight (both P P P − 1 day − 1 ), carbohydrate (g day − 1 ) and fat (g day − 1 ) decreased (all P 6 , total folate (all P P P P P P − 1 ) and nutrient intakes (expressed per MJ day − 1 ) at the individual level was only poor to fair (all κ Conclusions These data suggest that individual dietary patterns exhibited at 15 years of age are unlikely to be predictive of dietary intakes at young adulthood
