- Abstract
To investigate the relationship between the eating habits of individuals between the ages of 18-65, body appreciation and narcissistic personality. Material and Methods: Six hundred sixty eight volunteers between the ages of 18-65 participated in the study. It was collected via Google Form between April 2022 and September 2022, with an online questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic data form, narcissistic personality inventory, Body Appreciation Scale and three-factor nutrition questionnaire. Statistically significant level was determined as p<0.05. Results: 75.6% of the participants were female and 24.4% were male. 7.5% of the participants were underweight, 57.2% were normal, 26.8% were overweight and 8.5% were obese. A statistically significant negative correlation was found between the Body Appreciation Scale total score and the Three Factor Nutrition Scale total score (r=-0.246, p<0.001). A positive correlation was found between the Body Appreciation Scale total score and the narcissistic personality inventory total score (r=0.080, p=0.038). There was a positive difference between the total score of the Three-Factor Nutrition Scale and the "exhibitionism" score of the narcissistic personality inventory sub-dimensions (r=0.095, p=0.014); A statistically significant negative correlation was found between the "claiming rights" score (r=-0.133, p=0.001). Conclusion: As the participants have narcissistic features, their body appreciation increases. A negative relationship was found between body perception scale score and eating habits. It has been observed that while narcissistic personality traits increase in obese individuals, their body perception decreases. As a result, we revealed that narcissism has a negative effect on body image as body mass index level increases and may negatively affect eating habits, but more research is needed.
