Sažetak
Eating habits of adolescents can be significantly influenced by different
emotional states, leading to eating disorders, especially among young
people aged 15 to 19. The main objective of this research conducted on
a sample of 915 students of secondary schools in Split, was to investigate
the link between eating habits and emotional states of adolescents,
that is, to investigate the frequency of potentially high-risk behaviors
and attitudes significant for the development of an eating disorder. The
research has shown that there is a link between certain emotional states
and overeating, and that this link is more pronounced in female than in
male students. We have concluded that the following are the emotions
and emotional states predominately associated with overeating: lower
mood, sadness, stress, loneliness, anger, boredom and even happiness.
Different emotional changes have been observed among the research
participants, especially negative emotional states. Data obtained from
this research can be a starting point for public health projects aimed at
protection and improvement of mental health of adolescents in the educational
system, as well as for projects of the civil society organizations.
