Questionnaires on Nomophobia, Perceived Stress, Body Image, and Food Addiction; Body Composition and Anthropometric Measurements via Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
Questionnaires on Nomophobia, Perceived Stress, Body Image, and Food Addiction; Body Composition and Anthropometric Measurements via Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis: Participants will complete self-report questionnaires including the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), Body Image Questionnaire (BIQ), Food Addiction Scale (YFAS 2.0), and the Stunkard Figure Rating Scale (FRS). Objective anthropometric measurements, including body composition using InBody 270 and waist-to-hip ratio, will also be obtained.
Study summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of nomophobia levels on stress, food addiction, and body image among undergraduate students aged 18-30 at Bahçeşehir University, Faculty of Health Sciences. The primary questions it aims to answer are:
* Is there a statistically significant relationship between nomophobia levels and perceived stress, food addiction, and body image among university students?
* Is there a correlation between objective anthropometric data (body fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass) measured via Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA), waist/hip circumference measurements, and the individual's perceived body image?

Primary outcome measure(s)
Nomophobia — Baseline The level of nomophobia experienced by participants, measured using the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q).
This form aims to assess your feelings and thoughts when you cannot access your smartphone or are away from it, a condition known as nomophobia. There are no right or wrong answers; what matters is answering honestly based on your own experience. Indicate your level of agreement with each statement about your smartphone use (1 = strongly agree, 7 = strongly disagree).
