Obesity is a serious public health issue. Investigating the eating behaviour of individuals plays an important role in preventing obesity. Therefore, the purpose of the current study is to adapt the long and first version of the 'Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire' (TFEQ), a scale that examines the eating behaviour of individuals, to Turkish culture and to carry out its validity and reliability study.
The data were collected using data collection forms, and anthropometric measurements of the individuals were made by the researchers. The data collection form included several parameters: socio-demographic characteristics, the TFEQ scale, whose validity and reliability analysis is conducted here, and the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) which was used as a parallel form.

The study group consisted of obese adult individuals (n 257).
It was seen that constructing the questionnaire with twenty-seven items and four sub-dimensions provides better information about Turkish obese individuals. Factor loadings ranged from 0·421 to 0·846, and item total score correlations ranged from 0·214 to 0·558. Cronbach's α coefficient was found to be 0·639 for the whole scale. A positive, strong and statistically significant correlation was detected between TFEQ and DEBQ, which was used as a parallel form (r = 0·519, P < 0·001).
In Turkey, the long version of the TFEQ scale was found valid and reliable for obese adult individuals. TFEQ can be used by clinicians or researchers to study the eating behaviour of obese individuals.
肥胖是一个严重的公共卫生问题。调查个体的饮食行为在预防肥胖方面起着重要作用。因此，本研究的目的是将用于检测个体饮食行为的“三因素饮食问卷”（TFEQ）的长版和初版改编为适合土耳其文化的版本，并进行其效度和信度研究。
使用数据收集表收集数据，研究人员对个体进行人体测量。数据收集表包括几个参数：社会人口统计学特征、在此进行效度和信度分析的TFEQ量表，以及作为平行量表使用的荷兰饮食行为问卷（DEBQ）。
伊兹密尔的埃杰大学肥胖诊所。
研究组由肥胖成年个体组成（n = 257）。
结果表明，构建一个包含27个项目和四个子维度的问卷能为土耳其肥胖个体提供更好的信息。因子载荷范围为0·421至0·846，项目总分相关性范围为0·214至0·558。整个量表的Cronbach's α系数为0·639。作为平行量表使用的TFEQ与DEBQ之间检测到显著的正相关且具有统计学意义（r = 0·519，P < 0·001）。
在土耳其，TFEQ量表的长版对肥胖成年个体有效且可靠。临床医生或研究人员可使用TFEQ来研究肥胖个体的饮食行为。
