Abstract

BACKGROUND

Personality plays an important role in food choices. The aim of this study was to assess the association of personality traits with dietary habits and food preferences.

METHODS

This cross-sectional study was carried out on 224 healthy female students aged 18-30 years with a normal BMI. Dietary habits, food preferences, and personality were assessed using validated questionnaire.

RESULTS

Our results showed that neuroticism and openness were associated with low scores while conscientiousness was related to high scores of dietary habits (r = -0.33 < 0.001, r = -0.13, < 0.05 and = 0.26, < 0.001, respectively). In addition, neuroticism was correlated with preference to salty, sour and fatty foods and negatively associated with dairy products ( < 0.05). Extraversion showed a positive correlation with preference to fast foods, ice cream, chocolate, cocoa, and negative correlation with meat. Openness was positively correlated with preference for meat and biscuit and negatively correlated with fruits ( < 0.05). Agreeableness was related to having soft drinks and sweetened fruit juices and conscientiousness had a positive association with preference to dairy products, vegetables, nuts, food with salty tastes, and a negative association with biscuits ( < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, assessing personality traits could be useful to identify young women who may be at risk of unhealthy dietary habits.

摘要

背景

个性在食物选择中起着重要作用。本研究的目的是评估个性特质与饮食习惯及食物偏好之间的关联。

方法

这项横断面研究针对224名年龄在18至30岁、BMI正常的健康女学生进行。使用经过验证的问卷评估饮食习惯、食物偏好和个性。

结果

我们的结果显示，神经质和开放性与低分相关，而尽责性与饮食习惯的高分相关（相关系数分别为r = -0.33 ＜ 0.001，r = -0.13，＜ 0.05以及r = 0.26，＜ 0.001）。此外，神经质与对咸味、酸味和高脂肪食物的偏好相关，与乳制品呈负相关（＜ 0.05）。外向性与对快餐、冰淇淋、巧克力、可可的偏好呈正相关，与肉类呈负相关。开放性与对肉类和饼干的偏好呈正相关，与水果呈负相关（＜ 0.05）。宜人性与饮用软饮料和甜果汁有关，尽责性与对乳制品、蔬菜、坚果、咸味食物的偏好呈正相关，与饼干呈负相关（＜ 0.05）。
