Summary

This project was planned to examine whether there is a difference between nutrition knowledge level, reward-related eating behaviour and body awareness in healthy young adults according to gender.

Detailed description

Nutritional knowledge is among the factors that affect individuals\' eating habits and diet quality. Food consumption is rewarding in itself as it increases energy and eliminates hunger (an unpleasant sensation); however, daily experiences show that people often eat without hunger. Individuals with high body awareness are expected to be aware of the changes occurring in their body and to change these changes. In the project, nutrition knowledge level, reward-related eating behaviour and body awareness will be compared according to gender in healthy young adults, and all these values will be evaluated through scales. The study data will be collected with a single interview by face-to-face interview method. Each participant will be informed about the study and their written and verbal consent will be obtained. The application time of the questionnaires is expected to take approximately 10 minutes for each participant. In case of a difference between genders for the values investigated, it is aimed to develop individuals\' awareness of these situations. In addition, the relationship between these situations will also be evaluated. It is aimed to create awareness for the situations that are found to be related.
