The purpose of this study is to identify the effects of social support and communication with parents on eating attitude of nursing college students. Data were collected from April 23 to September 15, 2018, self-questionnaires from nursing college students. The collected data were analyzed using ttest, one way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis. In this study, it was found that the more depressed the mood state (β =.35, p<.001) of nursing college students' eating attitude and the negative communication with the father (β=-.30, p<.001), the higher the abnormal eating attitude. The variables accounted for 20.1% of abnormal eating attitude. Based on the results of this study, a screening test for depression is necessary in order to detect nursing college students with early abnormal eating attitudes and postitive communication with the father will improve the abnormal eating attitude.
