Objective : This study was conducted to confirm general differences in eating attitudes according to the sensory processing characteristics of women.
Methods : The Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (AASP) and the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26) were used to survey 241 women. Their eating attitudes according to the sensory processing characteristics was analyzed using an independent t -test and one-way ANOVA, and the post-analysis was performed using the Scheffe test.
Results : Among the sensory processing characteristics, except for eating control due to low registration, binge-eating and foodlessness due to sensory avoidance, all eating attitudes were significantly different according to sensory processing characteristics ( p <.05). The anorexic behaviour, binge-eating and foodlessness was shown to be negative in cases of those who had much lower registration than most people. All eating attitudes, such as anorexia, binge-eating and foodlessness, and eating control, were shown to be negative in cases of women whose sensation seeking was equal to or much greater than the general population. The binge-eating and foodlessness were shown to be negative in cases of high sensory sensitivity. The anorexic behaviour was shown to be negative in cases of elevated sensory avoidance.
Conclusion : Eating attitudes differed depending on the sensory processing characteristics. As such, sensory integration mediation can be proposed as a method of controlling the eating attitudes of women in general.
