The demographic characteristics of participants can be found in Table 2. The sample had a mean age of
approximately 46 years (M = 45.79; SD = 11.46), a mean of approximately 14 years of education (M = 13.91;
SD = 2.43), and mean BMI fell into the obese range (M = 31.02; SD = 8.95).
Mean scores for the PSS-10 and EBPQ can be found in Table 3. Gender differences were found for the PSS-10 and
EBPQ. Based on independent samples t-tests, females scored significantly higher on the PSS-10 than males (t= 2.00;
p=.05). In addition, females scored significantly higher than males on the cultural/lifestyle eating (t=−2.12; p=.04)
and snacking on sweets (t=−2.12; p=.04) domains of the EBPQ.
