Özet:

 The aim of this study is to determine the relationships between social appearance anxiety and nutritional attitudes and the factors predicting social appearance anxiety. The participants of the study, which was planned as a quantitative and correlational research, consisted of 490 45.3 female and 54.7 male adult individuals attending fitness centres. In the study, Attitude Scale on Healthy Nutrition ATHS, Social Appearance Anxiety Scale SAAS and Personal Information Form were used as data collection tools. SPSS 25.00 package programme was used to analyse the data collected for the study. While correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between social appearance anxiety and nutritional attitudes in adults attending fitness centres, hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to analyse the extent to which social appearance anxiety was predicted by independent variables. As a result of the study, it was observed that there was a moderate and negative relationship between social appearance anxiety and attitudes towards nutrition. Demographic variables explained a significant portion of the variance in social appearance anxiety, BMI contribution was limited, and emotional and behavioural factors related to nutrition were strong predictors of social appearance anxiety.

 Bu araştırmanın amacı, sosyal görünüş kaygısı ile beslenme tutumları arasındaki ilişkilerin ve sosyal görünüş kaygısını yordayan faktörlerin belirlenmesidir. Nicel ve korelasyonel bir araştırma olarak planlanan çalışmanın katılımcıları fitness salonlarına devam eden 490 45.3 kadın ve 54.7 erkek yetişkin bireyden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Sağlıklı Beslenmeye İlişkin Tutum Ölçeği SBİTÖ, Sosyal Görünüş Kaygısı Ölçeği SGKÖ ve Kişisel Bilgi Formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma için toplanan verilerin analizinde SPSS 25.00 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Fitness salonlarına devam eden yetişkinlerde sosyal görünüş kaygısı ile beslenme tutumları arasındaki ilişkilerin belirlenmesi amacıyla korelasyon analizi kullanılırken, sosyal görünüş kaygısının bağımsız değişkenler tarafından ne ölçüde yordandığını analiz etmek amacıyla hiyerarşik çoklu regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda sosyal görünüş kaygısıyla beslenmeye yönelik tutumlar arasında orta düzeyde ve negatif bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür. Demografik değişkenlerin sosyal görünüş kaygısındaki varyansın önemli bir kısmını açıkladığını, BKİ katkısının sınırlı kaldığını ve beslenme ile ilişkili duygusal ve davranışsal faktörlerin, sosyal görünüş kaygısının güçlü yordayıcıları olduğunu göstermiştir.
