We found that BMI, living arrangement and socioeconomic status were independent predictors of diet quality in pre-frail older adults, with BMI being the most important variable in this sample when the interaction of these variables was considered. Future research is needed to determine the similarities and/or differences in the profile of subgroups of older adults with poorer diet quality.
