Abstract:

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of emotional eating among youths (university students) in Sudan. The students were recruited from University of Khartoum. The total sample was 400 (183 males and 217 females), with ages ranging from 18 to 30 years. Females were more likely to eat while watching television (p<0.001) and when bored (p<0.01), whereas males were more prone to eat late at night (p<0.02). There were no significant differences between genders regarding eating when angered and eating when anxious. The findings of this study indicated an alarming prevalence of emotional eating among urban youths in Sudan.
