Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate night eating syndrome and obesity in overweight and obese subjects.
Method: This descriptive study was carried out on a total of 258 overweight and obese subjects who agreed to participate in the research in Elazig province center during April-May 2016. Body Mass Indexes (BMI) were calculated by measuring height-weight of participants. The data were collected using the Night Eating Syndrome (NES). The data were evaluated on a computer and the level of significance was accepted as 0.05.
Findings: 61.2% of the participants were female (n = 158), 38.8% were male (n = 100) and the mean age was 36.14 ± 14.47. 36.8% (n = 95) of the participants were high school graduates and 57.8% (n = 149) were married. Of the whole group, 55.4% (n = 143) were overweight and 44.6% (n = 115) were obese. There was a significant difference in BMI between the groups with and without NES (p <0.05).
Conclusions and Recommendations: In this study, the relationship between NES and obesity was investigated and significant differences were found in terms of mean scores. Night-eating behavior may be associated with obesity. Detection of night eating behaviors may contribute to the prevention of obesity.
