Two validated instruments were used: Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) assess behaviors Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14) measure levels. Statistical analyses included correlations, ANOVA, regression models, a significance threshold p < 0.05. Results: Among respondents, 15.1% displayed behaviors, significantly correlating EAT-26 subscales. levels predominantly moderate high, younger reporting higher stress. positive correlation found particularly dieting bulimia/food preoccupation. Female reported than males; however, no gender differences observed No associations BMI, weight fluctuations, scores, suggesting other factors better explain Logistic identified as predictor risk, reinforcing its role shaping Conclusions: impacts attitudes, highlighting need for targeted interventions reduce promote healthy coping mechanisms.
