Objectives: We adapted the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire Revised 21-item (TFEQ-R21). Our main goals were to verify the original factorial structure of TFEQ-R21 in a Hungarian sample, to conduct the psychometric analysis of this instrument, and to explore potential determinants of eating behaviors. Method: Research design was a cross-sectional, questionnaire study. Research participants were 262 female students (mean of age=21.7 years, SD=2.78, mean of BMI=20.8 SD 2.93). Measures: Hungarian version of Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire Revised 21-item, Trait Anxiety Inventory, Body Attitude Test. Results: The confirmatory factor analysis verified the original structure of TFEQ-R21 in our Hungarian sample. Scales are Uncontrolled eating, Cognitive restraint, and Emotional eating. Internal consistency, test–retest reliability and validity were satisfactory. Using MIMIC model, we tested potential determinants of eating behaviors. Results showed, that BMI associated significantly only with emotional eating (positive relationship). Body image dissatisfaction predicted greater cognitive restraint. Uncontrolled eating and emotional eating were predicted by trait anxiety. Conclusions: The Hungarian version of TFEQ-R21 appears to be a reliable and valid measure, which can be offered further examination regarding its use in current research and clinical practice.

Life style (excessive calorie intake and physical inactivity) may play a critical role in the development of obesity. Understanding eating behavior would be helpful to develop appropriate prevention programs to tackle obesity. Our purpose was to examine the relationship between eating behavior (cognitive restraint, uncontrolled eating, and emotional eating) and its correlates (BMI, food preference, physical activity, anxiety, and body dissatisfaction) among female college students (n = 295). Research design was a cross-sectional, questionnaire study. Measures were Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire Revised 21 items, Body Attitude Test, State Anxiety Scale, Exercise: Stages of Change (Short Form), and questions of food and drink consumption. Results indicated that BMI is correlated with cognitive restraint. This association is fully mediated by negative appreciation of body size. Students who reported regular exercise show a significantly greater cognitive restraint, than physically inactive students. State anxiety correlated with maladaptive eating behaviours, namely uncontrolled eating and emotional eating. The association between anxiety and uncontrolled eating is partially mediated by emotional eating. The associations between eating behaviour and food preference were weak, but they correspond to our expectations. Cognitive restraint associated with lower consumption of energy-dense foods, while uncontrolled eating and emotional eating were positively associated with higher consumption of energy-dense foods. Understanding correlates of eating behaviors informs the prevention work targeting eating patterns and weight control.

ody Attitude Test (BAT, Van Coppenolle, Probst et al., 1990) is a widely used measurement. Our main goal was to support the original factorial structure of BAT in Hungarian normal weight and overweight/obese female samples. Research design was a cross-sectional, questionnaire study. Research participants were normal weight female students, and female participants of a lifestyle modification program. Measures were Body Attitude Test, Human Figure Drawings Test, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Trait Anxiety Inventory. The confirmatory factor analysis verified the original structure of BAT in our samples. Internal consistency, test–retest reliability and construct validity were satisfactory.
