Table 3.

Correlations (Spearman) between the Mediterranean diet adherence screener (MEDAS) with the total score of the self-perceived food literacy (SPFL), the impulsivity (UPPS-P short version), the self-perceived health questionnaire (SF12), and the five factors of food literacy (F1 = cooking skills; F2 = emotional management; F3 = healthy consumption as a priority; F4 = nutritional literacy and planning; F5 = availability of ultra-processed foods). Data are presented as: Mn = median, SD = standard deviation, S = Skewness; K = Kurtosis; K-S = Kolmogorov–Smirnov.
