| dc.description.abstract | A recent nation-wide survey conducted by Dietitians of Canada (2020) found dietitians are divided in their interpretation of (body) weight evidence. There is limited data on Canadian Registered Dietitians' (RDs’) perspectives, experiences, and knowledge on this topic. Moreover, current evidence suggests Canadian RDs are predominantly female, white, and young-to-middle aged. It has been established that one’s intersecting characteristics can impact how they see themselves and others, but there is limited Canadian research impacting how these factors impact weight evidence interpretation and application. | |
