Purpose: This study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish form of the Eating Awareness Scale in adolescents.
Method: The sample of this study consists of 349 students living in Karaman province and continuing their high school education. The research data was collected face to face between October 15, 2023 and December 15, 2023, after obtaining the necessary permissions. The data was obtained using the "Personal Information Form" and "Eating Awareness Scale".
Results: For the construct validity of the scale, exploratory factor analysis was conducted with the original 30-item form. As a result of the analysis, 11 items in the scale (items 1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 16, 18, 19 and 24) were removed from the scale because they did not show a factor load above 0.30 in any factor. The remaining 19 items were distributed into 3 factors. For the reliability of the scale, the Cronbach's alpha internal consistency coefficient of the sub-dimensions was examined. These coefficients were found to be 0.83 for Factor 1, 0.72 for Factor 2 and 0.61 for Factor 3. The internal consistency coefficient of the entire scale is 0.78.
Conclusion and Recommendations: According to the results of the study, the Eating Awareness Scale gave valid and reliable results with its 19 items and 3-factor structure.

Bu araştırmada Yeme Farkındalığı Ölçeği Türkçe Formunun ergenlerde geçerli ve güvenilirliğinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın örneklemini Karaman ilinde yaşayan ve lise eğitimine devam eden 349 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri gerekli izinler alındıktan sonra 15 Ekim 2023 ile 15 Aralık 2023 tarihleri arasında yüz yüze toplanmıştır. Veriler "Kişisel Bilgi Formu" ve "Yeme Farkındalığı Ölçeği” kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliği için, 30 maddelik orijinal form ile açımlayıcı faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Analiz sonucunda ölçekte yer alan 11 madde (1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 16, 18, 19 ve 24. maddeler) hiçbir faktörde 0.30’un üzerinde faktör yükü göstermemesi nedeniyle ölçekten çıkarılmıştır. Geriye kalan 19 madde 3 faktöre dağılmıştır. Ölçeğin güvenirliği için alt boyutlara ait Cronbach alfa iç tutarlık katsayısı incelenmiştir. Bu katsayıların Factor 1 için 0.83, Factor 2 için 0.72 ve Factor 3 için 0.61 olarak bulunmuştur. Ölçeğin tamamına ait iç tutarlık katsayısı ise 0.78’dir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre Yeme Farkındalığı Ölçeği, 19 madde ve 3 faktörlü yapısıyla geçerli ve güvenilir sonuçlar vermiştir.
