Özet:

 Poor sleep quality is prevalent among university students and has been linked to unhealthy eating behaviors, including night eating and low mindful eating, which may negatively impact overall health and well-being. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of mindful eating and night eating syndrome on sleep quality among female students in the Faculty of Health Sciences. This cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 360 female university students aged 18 to 24 years. Data were collected through face-to-face surveys, and the Mindful Eating Questionnaire MEQ, Night Eating Questionnaire NEQ, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index PSQI were administered. Among the participants, 40.8 were classified as good sleepers, while 59.2 were poor sleepers. Additionally, MEQscores were not statistically different between the two groups p  0.05, while NEQ total scores were significantly higher in participants with poor sleep quality p  0.003. Higher total PSQI scores were significantly associated with skipping meals Beta  0.101, alcohol consumption Beta  0.163, high BMI Beta  0.610, and NEQ score Beta  0.084. In conclusion, poor sleep quality among female university students is significantly associated with night eating behaviors, higher BMI, meal skipping, and alcohol consumption, highlighting the need for interventions targeting these behaviors to improve sleep quality and overall well-being.

 Üniversite öğrencileri arasında düşük uyku kalitesi yaygındır ve gece yeme ile düşük yeme farkındalığı gibi sağlıksız yeme davranışlarıyla ilişkilendirilmiştir, bu durum genel sağlık ve iyi olma halini olumsuz etkileyebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesinde okuyan kız öğrencilerin yeme farkındalığının ve gece yeme sendromunun uyku kalitesi üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Bu kesitsel çalışma, 18-24 yaşlarında 360 üniversite öğrencisiyle yürütülmüştür. Veriler yüz yüze anketlerle toplanmış olup, Yeme Farkındalığı Ölçeği MEQ, Gece Yeme Ölçeği NEQ ve Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi PSQI uygulanmıştır. Katılımcıların 40.8inin uyku kalitesi iyi, 59.2si ise kötü olarak sınıflandırılmıştır. Ayrıca, MEQ skorları iki grup arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark göstermemiştir p  0.05, ancak NEQ skorları, düşük uyku kalitesine sahip katılımcılarda anlamlı derecede yüksek bulunmuştur p  0.003. Daha yüksek PSQI skorları, öğün atlama Beta  0.101, alkol tüketimi Beta  0.163, yüksek BKİ Beta  0.610 ve NEQ skoru Beta  0.084 ile anlamlı şekilde ilişkilendirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, kız üniversite öğrencileri arasında düşük uyku kalitesi, gece yeme davranışları, yüksek BKİ, öğün atlama ve alkol tüketimi ile anlamlı bir şekilde ilişkilidir. Bu davranışlara yönelik müdahalelerin uyku kalitesini ve genel iyi olma halini iyileştirmek için gerekli olduğu vurgulanmaktadır.
