Purpose: This study is planned to determine the type of study and gender on the GYS effect on the night eating syndrome in Erciyes University students. Work Plan: The data of the study was collected using the Night Food Survey between December 2017 and March 2018. The sample size is calculated using the layer systematic sample method. Erciyes University has been granted the necessary permission for the conduct of the study from the Ethics Council of Social and Human Sciences 28/11/2017-59 . The faculties related to medicine and health sciences have not been included because it could affect the result of the study. The normal distribution conformity was assessed by the Shapiro-Wilk test. Numerical data are arithmetic average x ̄ standard deviation ± SS, the number of qualitative data is shown as n and percentage. In comparison of the quantum variables of groups, the Student-t test was used, while in comparison of the qualitative variables, the Ki-Care test was used. A total of 1024 students were included in the study. 54.3 percent of students are men, 45.7 percent are women, 60.4 percent are primary and 39.6 percent are secondary. The frequency of smoking is 32%, while the frequency of alcohol use is 19.3%. 66% of students found GYS and the total score received from the Night Food Survey was 26.41±4.42. There has been no meaningful relationship between gender and type of learning and GYS status. Similarly, no meaningful relationship has been found between age, weight, size and body mass index and GYS. The frequency of GYS in smoking students is significantly higher than the frequency of GYS in non-smoking students p=0,009. However, there was no meaningful relationship between alcohol use and the frequency of GYS. The result: It has been found that the frequency of night eating syndrome is quite high among university students. Therefore, the necessary measures should be taken by determining the frequency of eating disorders such as night eating syndrome among university students.
