Abstract

Hedonic hunger is defined as a continuous increase in appetite, without the need for energy, especially in association with the desire to eat sugary, fatty foods and the expectation of enjoying the food and feeling happiness. This study aims to evaluate the hedonic hunger levels of students studying nutrition and dietetics. The study was conducted with a total of 145 students, 114 female and 31 male students, between the ages of 18-25. In the study, the students' sociodemographic characteristics were questioned with some anthropometric measurements, the Power of Food Scale (PFS), and the Food Cravings Questionnaire (FCQ). The mean PFS score was 3.03, and the presence of hedonic hunger related to power of food was identified. The mean FCQ score was found to be 132.95. Various causes such as obesity, a history of dieting, alcohol consumption, and chronic diseases may influence the formation of hedonic hunger. The timely determination of hedonic hunger and establishment of healthy eating habits may reduce individuals' exposure to hedonic hunger.

Özet

Hedonik açlık, enerji ihtiyacı olmaksızın, özellikle şekerli, yağlı gıdalara yeme isteği duyulması ve besinden zevk alma ve mutluluk duyma beklentisi ile ilişkili olarak iştahın sürekli artması olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı; beslenme ve diyetetik öğrencilerinin hedonik açlık düzeylerini değerlendirmektir. Çalışma 18-25 yaş arası 114 kadın ve 31 erkek olmak üzere toplam 145 öğrenci ile yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada öğrencilerin sosyodemografik özellikleri, bazı antropometrik ölçümleri, Besin Gücü Ölçeği (BGÖ) ve Aşırı Besin İsteği (ABİS) ölçeği anket tekniği ile sorgulanmıştır. BGÖ skor ortalaması 3,03 olup, besin gücü kaynaklı hedonik açlık varlığı saptanmıştır. ABİS skor ortalaması 132,95 olarak bulunmuştur. Obezite, diyet öyküsü, alkol tüketimi ve kronik hastalıklar gibi çeşitli sebepler hedonik açlığın oluşumunu etkileyebilir. Hedonik açlığın zamanında belirlenmesi, sağlıklı beslenme alışkanlıklarının oluşturulması, bireylerin hedonik açlığa maruziyetlerinin azalmasını sağlayabilir.
