The BDI and BAI scores of the participants measured the severity ofanxiety and depressive symptoms were statistically higher than the controls. (p lt;0.001). There were statistically significant positive correlations betweenBDI and BAI, EAT and BMI (p = 0.029, r = 0.436; p = 0.001, r =.630,respectively). There was a statistically significant positive correlationbetween EAT and BMI (p = 0.027, r = 0.441).
