This study aimed to examine the relationships between academic programs, gender, anthropometric measurements, and the Weight Management Nutrition Knowledge Questionnaire (WMNKQ) score. Results indicated that 37.7% of male and 15.3% of female students were overweight, with significant gender differences in BMI, waist/height ratio, waist/hip ratio, and waist circumference (all p < .001, except waist circumference p = .024). WMNKQ scores also varied significantly by gender and BMI classification (p < .05). Students in health-related fields scored higher on nutrition knowledge than those in other faculties (p = .000). Findings emphasize the importance of weight management among university students, who may face lifestyle changes affecting healthy eating habits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
