Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• nutrition knowledge

  Nutritional knowledge level for adults: A 5-point Likert-type scale with a total of 32 propositions was formed. The scores obtained from the evaluation criteria of the nutritional knowledge level scale for adults are evaluated as poor, moderate, good and very good. Participants with a basic nutrition score of less than 45 are considered to have a poor level of knowledge, those with a score between 45 and 55 have a moderate level of knowledge, those with a score between 56 and 65 have a good level of knowledge, and those with a score above 65 have a very good level of knowledge. Participants with a food preference score of less than 30 are considered to have poor knowledge, those with a score of 30-36 are considered to have moderate knowledge, those with a score of 37-42 are considered to have good knowledge, and those with a score of more than 42 are considered to have very good knowledge.

  Baseline

• reward-related eating

  Reward-Related Eating Scale (RED-13): It is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 13 items in 2017. This scale has three sub-dimensions that assess lack of satiety, preoccupation with food and lack of control over eating. A maximum score of 65 and a minimum score of 13 can be obtained from the Red-13 scale. Higher scores on the Red-13 are associated with greater appetite and craving for sweets.

  Baseline

• body awareness

  Body Awareness Questionarre (BAQ): It is basically a questionnaire that questions body reactions, the individual\'s estimates of body processes, the disease process and the sleep-wake cycle. It is a Likert-type questionnaire consisting of 18 items and 4 subgroups. A high score from the questionnaire means a high level of body awareness.

  Baseline

• descriptive assessment

  In the general information form of the young individuals participating in the study, demographic information (gender, age, height, body weight, body mass index, etc.) was included.
