Diet and Behavior

Diet and Behavior (Adult Population)

The CNP Diet and Behavior Research Category focuses on a wide range of observable, measurable eating-related actions, including what, when, and how much people eat. It includes dietary habits such as food preparation, purchasing, and consumption patterns; emotional and social influences on food choices; habitual snacking; and eating restriction. These patterns are shaped by psychological factors—including mood, cognition, stress, and emotions—which together exert a reciprocal influence on eating behaviors and play a significant role in shaping overall well-being and mental health outcomes.
