ABSTRACT
This study aimed to determine how common Food Addiction (FA) is in the adult Indonesian female population and what factors may contribute to FA. A total of 194 Indonesian women completed the Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 and a questionnaire to assess sociodemographic characteristics, Body Mass Index, and their eating habits. Less than 4% (3.6%) of participants met the threshold for FA (85.7% severe FA and 14.3% moderate FA). Among participants with FA, most were obese (57.1%) and tended to eat high-sugar and flour-containing foods. The most common symptom met by participants with FA were withdrawal symptoms.
