Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between social appearance anxiety (SAA) and eating attitudes (EA) of civil aviation cabin services program students. The sample of the research consists of 117 civil aviation cabin services program students studying at private universities in Istanbul. Demographic Information Form, Social Appearance Anxiety Scale and Eating Attitude Test were presented to the participants via Google Forms. During the analysis, whether the data were suitable for normal distribution or not was evaluated; they were not normally distributed. Spearman Correlation Analysis was used to determine whether there was a relationship between scale scores, and Mann Whitney U Test was used for independent pairwise group comparisons. Kruskal-Wallis Test was used for comparison of more than two groups. Whether social appearance anxiety predicted eating attitude was examined by linear regression analysis and it was seen that social appearance anxiety explained 24.1% of the change in eating attitude. In the results, a statistically moderately significant relationship was found between SAA and EA (r=.328, p<.05). There was a moderate relationship between EA and SAA in thins (r=.614, p<.05), and a low-level significant relationship in those with normal weight (r=.226, p<.05). Women expressed significantly more SAA than men (p<.05).

Abstract

Bu araştırmada sivil havacılık kabin hizmetleri programı öğrencilerinin sosyal görünüş kaygısı (SGK) ve yeme tutumları (YT) arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini İstanbul’da vakıf üniversitelerinde öğrenim gören 117 sivil havacılık kabin hizmetleri programı öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada katılımcılara Demografik Bilgi Formu, Sosyal Görünüş Kaygısı Ölçeği ve Yeme Tutumu Testi Google Forms aracılığı ile sunulmuştur. Analiz sürecinde verilerin normal dağılıma uygun olup olmadığı normallik analizi ile değerlendirilmiş ve normal dağılmadığı belirlenmiştir. Ölçek puanları arasında ilişki olup olmadığı Spearman Korelasyon Analizi ile incelenmiş olup bağımsız ikili grup karşılaştırmalarında Mann Whitney U Testi, ikiden fazla grubun karşılaştırılmasında Kruskal-Wallis Testi yapılmıştır. Sosyal görünüş kaygısının yeme tutumunu yordayıp yordamadığı basit doğrusal regresyon analizi ile incelenmiş olup sosyal görünüş kaygısının yeme tutumundaki değişikliğin %24.1’ini açıkladığı görülmüştür. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre SGK ve YT arasında istatistiksel olarak orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur (r=.328, p<.05). Zayıf olanlarda YT ile SGK arasında orta düzeyde (r=.614, p<.05), normal kiloda olanlarda düşük düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmuştur (r=.226, p<.05). (p<.05). Kadınlar erkeklerden anlamlı olarak daha fazla SGK ifade etmiştir (p<.05).
