Association Between Anxiety And Eating Habits

Abstract

The objective of our research is to determine the impact of eating habits on anxi-ety. Eating habits were evaluated according to validated instruments and their nor-mality was established with Kolmogorov-Smirnov K-S=0.9 and significance p-val-ue=0.3>0.05. We have that food consumption also has a normal distribution and does not impact the anxiety variable with a Pearson correlation of-0.08 and significance p-value=0.49. The logistic regression establishes the consumption cut-off point equal to 50 to have a 50% probability of having anxiety. Likewise, the punctu-al estimate of anxiety corresponding to this cut of consumption 50 is the score of 10.
