Results of the Kruskal-Wallis H test comparing the difference between the response score in the population divided based on gender, age group and BMI. * The mean rank difference is significant at the 0.05 level. CR-cognitive restraint, UE-uncontrolled eating, EE-emotional eating, BMI -body mass index. BMI categories are defined as ≤18.5 kg/cm2 underweight, 18.5–24.9 kg/cm2 normal weight status, 25.0–29.9 kg/cm2 overweight and ≥30.0 kg/cm2 obese. Age presented in years.
