Submit manuscripts at https://ecommons.udayton.edu/jde/. Each manuscript will be reviewed by at least one member of the Editorial Board to determine if it aligns with the mission, aims and scope of the journal. Those manuscripts approved for further consideration will undergo an anonymous review by two to three reviewers who are experts in dietetic education. Authors can expect reviews to be completed within approximately 10 to 15 weeks. Authors will receive their reviews along with a letter from the editor stating the decision from review: accepted, accepted with minor changes, major changes required, or rejected. Rejected articles are not eligible for resubmission. When the decision is to revise, authors should make the recommended changes and resubmit the manuscript within 30 days to continue toward publication. An extension may be requested. The Editor and Editorial Board make the final decision regarding publication of papers and reserve the right to refuse manuscripts for publication. Educating future dietetic professionals is complex and programs must adhere to accreditation standards, respond to changes in practice and educational standards, integrate technology into learning, engage students in evidence-based practice, and educate across multiple dietetic practice areas. Dietetic educators are called to respond and prepare students to successfully engage with diverse populations within a complex and ever changing discipline. The aim of this journal is to provide an outlet for educational research that provides evidence for best practices and innovation in dietetic education. It is also a platform to share educational frameworks or theories and novel technological approaches in dietetic education. Dietetic education includes the associate, bachelors, master’s and doctoral level degrees, dietetic internship as well as within the realm of continuing education for registered dietitian nutritionists. JDE welcomes a variety of topics for submission, including original research, theory, educational innovations, review of educational material, and technology updates. JDE welcomes all forms of methodologies and analysis, including quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. A non-exhaustive list of topics that are appropriate for JDE includes: • Curriculum and instructional design • Use of educational technology • Teaching methods • Online and distance learning • Blended learning • Fieldwork/practicum/supervised practice • Outcomes • Standardized testing • Accreditation standard alignment to outcomes/assessments • Critical thinking • Service learning/community-engaged learning • Pedagogy and andragogy • Professionalism • Interprofessional education • Diversity, equity and inclusion • Policy and advocacy    iv Journal of Dietetic Education • Vol. 3, Issue 1 (2025)     Journal of Dietetic Education • Vol. 3, Issue 1 (2025)     v   Table of Contents JOURNAL OF DIETETIC EDUCATION VOLUME 3, ISSUE 1 (2024) About the Journal .......................................................................................................................................... iii Editor’s Message ........................................................................................................................................... vii Diana Cuy Castellanos, Co-editor ORIGINAL RESEARCH ON DIETETIC EDUCATION A Qualitative Analysis of 14- to 17-Year-Olds’  Perceptions of and Interest in Dietetics ................................................................................................ 1 Andrea Barney (Brigham Young University)  Kelsey Mueller (Brigham Young University)  Emily Patten (Brigham Young University)  Conceptual Diagrams Help Dietetic Students to Understand  and Apply the Nutrition Care Process..................................................................................................15 Janica Jamieson (Edith Cowan University)  Bojana Kovacic (Edith Cowan University)  Philippa Lyons-Wall (Edith Cowan University)  Therese O’Sullivan (Edith Cowan University) Use of Simulation in Dietetic Internship Programs:  A Qualitative Exploration of Program Director Attitudes and Motivations ..........................29 Theresa B.

In this issue, you will find research exploring youth perceptions of the dietetic profession. As many academic institutions face declining enrollment in dietetics programs and dietetic job vacancies remain unfilled, understanding how young people in the career decision-making process perceive our field is essential to developing strategies to garner interest in the profession. Additionally, this issue highlights innovative teaching strategies, including conceptual diagrams, simulation, and priming. Janica Jamieson and colleagues report enhanced learning of the Nutrition Care Process through conceptual diagrams. Furthermore, given the ongoing challenge of securing sufficient supervised practice sites and preceptors for required dietetic internship hours, accreditation standards now permit up to 30% of these hours to be fulfilled through alternative experiences such as simulation. However, there is limited data on the extent to which simulation is integrated into dietetic internships. Theresa O’Reilly and colleagues explore internship directors’ attitudes and motivations regarding the use of simulation, offering valuable insights into its implementation. We are also excited to introduce a new journal category, Brief Educational Teaching Strategies (BETS), which features teaching best practices or innovations. This issue’s BETS article explores priming, a strategy designed to help students prioritize information for decision-making. We appreciate your time and dedication to staying informed about the latest developments in dietetic education. As always, we welcome new submissions and look forward to continuing to support innovation and excellence in our field.  Best,  Diana Cuy Castellanos JDE Co-editor   viii Journal of Dietetic Education • Vol. 3, Issue 1 (2025)
