- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method eating behaviour 7 days Participants' eating behaviour will be questioned with Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ). The TFEQ contains 51 items (questions) and measures three dimensions of human eating behavior 'cognitive restraint of eating' (Factor I - 21 items) 'disinhibition' (Factor II - 16 items) 'hunger' (Factor III - 14 items). Each item scores either 0 or 1 point. The minimum score for factors I-II-III is therefore 0-0-0, the possible maximum score 21-16-14.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method age 1 day The age of the participant will be recorded.
job 1 day The job will be recorded as unemployed, housewife, office worker or heavy duty worker.
level of education 1 day The education status will be recorded as not literate, primary school, secondary school, high school or university.
activities of daily living 7 days The effect of fibromyalgia on the daily life of the patients will be questioned with Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ). The FIQ was developed from information gathered from patient reports, functional status instruments, and clinical observations. This instrument measures 10 items (physical functioning, work status (missed days of work and job difficulty), depression, anxiety, morning tiredness, pain, stiffness, fatigue, and well-being) over the past week. The maximum possible score of each subtitle is 10. Thus, the total maximum score is 100, a lower score indicates better quality of life.
body mass index 1 day The participants' weights and heights will be measured and the body mass index will be calculated from the measured values.
sex 1 day It will be registered as male or female.
socio-economic situation 1 day Socio-economic situation will be recorded as income less than expense, income equal to expense or income lower than expense.
