ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective This study was conducted with 370 undergraduate students to investigate the relationship between food intake, food addiction and disordered eating behavior. Methods The Yale Food Addiction Scale, Eating Attitude Test-26 and Food Frequency Questionnaire were used to assess food addiction, disordered eating behavior and food intake. Results A positive weak correlation was found between the Yale Food Addiction Scale and daily energy, carbohydrate and fat intake (r=0.228, p<0.001; r=0.222, p<0.001; r=0.225, p<0.001 respectively) whereas a negative weak correlation was found between Eating Attitude Test-26 and daily energy and carbohydrate intake (r=-0.105, p=0.044; r=-0.116, p=0.025 respectively). Conclusion Food intake is associated with food addiction and disordered eating behaviour. Further research should be conducted with a larger population also examining body composition, exercises and financial situation of the individuals because all of these factors have an influence on the nutritional status and eating behavior as well.
RESUMO
RESUMO Objetivo Participaram neste estudo 370 estudantes universitários. O objetivo era investigar a relação entre consumo alimentar, dependência alimentar e distúrbios do comportamento alimentar. Métodos A Escala de Dependência Alimentar de Yale, o Teste de Atitudes Alimentares-26 e o Questionário de Frequência Alimentar foram utilizados para avaliar a dependência alimentar, os transtornos do comportamento alimentar e o consumo alimentar. Resultados Verificaram-se uma correlação positiva fraca entre a Escala de Dependência Alimentar de Yale e a ingestão diária de calorias, carboidratos e gorduras (r=0,228, p<0,001; r=0,222, p<0,001; r=0,225, p<0,001 respectivamente) e uma correlação negativa fraca entre o Teste de Atitudes Alimentares-26 e o consumo diário de calorias e carboidratos (r=-0,105, p=0,044; r=-0,116, p=0,025 respectivamente). Conclusão O consumo alimentar está associado à dependência alimentar e aos distúrbios do comportamento alimentar. No futuro, devem ser realizadas pesquisas em amostras maiores e devem também ser avaliados a composição corporal, hábitos do exercício físico e a situação financeira dos indivíduos, pois esses fatores influenciam quer a sua situação nutricional, quer os seus comportamentos alimentares.
