A new method in investigation of obesity-related eating behaviors ‘three-factor eating questionnaire’
Abstract
Objective: TFEQ “Three-factor eating questionnaire » evaluates eating behaviours of individuals. In this study, it was aimed to provide the usage of this questionnaire, which was translated into Turkish and named as «Üç Faktörlü Beslenme Anketi» by verifying the validity and reliability.
Methods: Fifty obese patients with a body mass index greater than 30, 50 overweight individuals with a body mass index between 25 and 30, and 50 healthy individuals with a body mass index smaller than 25 were recruited to the study. Age, gender, waist circumference, weight, height and body mass index values were recorded and the questionnaire was filled up by all individuals.
Results: Reliability of the questionnaire was found to be high. In addition, it was detected that, besides the evaluation of cognitive restraint of eating, disinhibition of eating control and emotional eating, the questionnaire also evaluates susceptibility to hunger.
Conclusion: Turkish version of the questionnaire could be used for the investigation of eating behaviours by other researchers in our country.

Obeziteyle ilişkili beslenme alışkanlıklarının araştırılmasında yeni bir yöntem “Üç faktörlü beslenme anketi”
Abstract
Amaç: Literatürde TFEQ “Three-factor eating questionnaire” olarak bilinen anket, bireylerin beslenme alışkanlıklarını ölçmektedir. Bu çalışmada, grubumuz tarafından «Üç Faktörlü Beslenme Anketi» adıyla Türkçeye çevrilmiş olan anketin geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin kanıtlanarak ülkemizde kullanımının sağlaması amaçlanmaktadır.
Yöntemler: Vücut kitle indeksi 30’un üzerinde olan 50 obez hasta, vücut kitle indeksi 25-30 arasında olan 50 fazla kilolu kişi ve 18’den büyük 25’ten küçük olan 50 sağlıklı birey çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Tüm bireylerin yaş, cinsiyet, bel çevresi, kilo, boy ve vücut kitle indeksi değerleri kaydedilmiş ve bireylere anket uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Bulgular: İstatistiksel analizler sonucunda anketin güvenirliğinin yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ek olarak, anketin kişilerin bilinçli olarak yemek yemelerini kısıtlama derecesini, kontrolsüz olarak yemek yeme seviyesini ve duygusal oldukları anlardaki yemek yeme derecesini ölçmenin yanında, açlığa duyarlılık seviyesini de ölçtüğü tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: Anketin Türkçe versiyonu, beslenme alışkanlıklarının incelenmesi amacıyla ülkemizde diğer araştırmacılar tarafından kullanılabilir.
