The purpose of this study was to assess body image and eating attitudes and their relationship with variables such as gender, body mass index or physical activity, amongst others. A total of 89 Food Science and Technology university students completed an online self-report questionnaire including the following assessment instruments: a general information questionnaire; the Silhouettes Test (ST), the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT) and the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ). For the total sample, the scores of the EAT and BSQ tests were 6,43 (DT = 4,96) and 72,20 (DT = 24,11), respectively. Women obtained higher scores than men with both questionnaires, these differences were statistically significant. A greater degree of body weight dissatisfaction and a high IMC were related to higher scores with both questionnaires.
