Cooking skills (CSs) and food skills (FSs) are essential in promoting healthier eating habits. Eating competence (EC) encompasses an individual's self-regulation, enjoyment, and positive attitude toward food, contributing to their overall well-being. However, no research has explored the relationship between CSs, FSs, and EC, particularly within the Brazilian context.
This study aimed to assess the association between EC and CFSs among Brazilian adults.
A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1266 Brazilian adults using two validated instruments: the Cooking and Food Skill Confidence Questionnaire (CFS) and the Brazilian version of the Satter Eating Competence Inventory (ecSI2.0™BR). Pearson's and Spearman's correlations were used to analyze the relationships between CSs, FSs, and EC.
A significant positive correlation was found between higher levels of CSs and the overall EC (r = 0.417, < 0.001), with complex cooking tasks showing stronger associations with EC. Contextual skills within EC exhibited the highest correlation with FSs (r = 0.487). Basic tasks, such as microwaving food, showed weaker associations with EC.
The findings suggest that enhancing cooking and food skills may support greater eating competence, promoting healthier eating behaviors. Public health programs should consider integrating cooking skill development to foster better dietary outcomes and improve individual well-being.
烹饪技能（CSs）和食物技能（FSs）对于促进更健康的饮食习惯至关重要。饮食能力（EC）包括个人对食物的自我调节、享受程度和积极态度，对其整体幸福感有贡献。然而，尚无研究探讨烹饪技能、食物技能与饮食能力之间的关系，特别是在巴西背景下。
本研究旨在评估巴西成年人中饮食能力与烹饪和食物技能之间的关联。
使用两种经过验证的工具对1266名巴西成年人进行了横断面调查：烹饪和食物技能信心问卷（CFS）以及巴西版的萨特饮食能力量表（ecSI2.0™BR）。使用皮尔逊相关性和斯皮尔曼相关性分析烹饪技能、食物技能与饮食能力之间的关系。
烹饪技能水平较高与整体饮食能力之间存在显著正相关（r = 0.417，< 0.001），复杂烹饪任务与饮食能力的关联更强。饮食能力中的情境技能与食物技能的相关性最高（r = 0.487）。诸如用微波炉加热食物等基本任务与饮食能力的关联较弱。
研究结果表明，提高烹饪和食物技能可能有助于增强饮食能力，促进更健康的饮食行为。公共卫生项目应考虑整合烹饪技能发展，以促进更好的饮食结果并改善个人幸福感。
