The objective of this study was to examine weight bias among Turkish dietitians. and to investigate the effect of the patient's weight status on the dietitian's assessment and dietetic practice.
The dietitians were randomly assigned to an online case study with lactose intolerance, with all patient information identical except for the patient's weight and photograph. In one case there was a photograph of a woman with obesity and in the other a woman of normal weight. The objective of the case study was to evaluate how the body weight of a patient who consulted a dietitian for a reason unrelated to the body weight affected professional practices.
