Abstract:

Introduction and Purpose: This study was conducted to explain the connection of the emotional appetite in positive and negative emotional conditions of adults aged 19 to 50. WORK AND METHOD: In this study, which is of a cutting/identificating type, the aim was to reach the entire universe (N=1030) without the selection of the sample and reached 815 (the responsibility rate was 79.1 %). Participants are applied. 35.1 percent of students are doing regular physical activity and 8.5 percent have received vitamin-mineral support in the last three months. 97.9 percent of students eat outside of their home. The average student’s overall emotional appetite scale is 94,0 (78,0-110,0) The total negative score of male students was significantly higher than the score of female students, the total negative score of those with chronic disease was significantly higher than the score of students who did not break the main meal (p<0,05). The proportion of normal eating behavior in men was significantly higher than in women, and those who did not break the main meal were significantly higher than those who jumped (p<0,05). A significant relationship between body mass index and eating behavior has been established (p<0,05). Result: As a result, less than half of students do regular physical activity and almost all eat outside the home. Physical activity has been influenced by emotional eating.
