| Eating Disorder Fear Questionnaire | The Eating Disorder Fear Questionnaire is a tool designed to measure individuals' fears related to eating disorders. The Turkish validity and reliability of the scale were conducted by Kahraman and Kerimler in 2021. The scale is in a 7-point Likert format, with a minimum score of 17 and a maximum score of 119. Higher scores on both the sub-dimensions and the overall scale indicate greater fears related to eating disorders. | Baseline |
| Effects of social media on eating behavior scale | The scale developed by Alev Keser consists of 18 items in a unidimensional 5-point Likert format (Never-1 point, Rarely-2 points, Sometimes-3 points, Often-4 points, Always-5 points). The scores obtained from the responses are summed, with a minimum score of 18 and a maximum score of 90. As the score increases, it indicates a greater influence of social media on eating behavior. | Baseline |
