The Emotional Eating Scale for Children and Adolescents (EES-C) (Tanofsky-Kraff et al., 2007) is a 25-item self-report questionnaire assessing the desire to eat in response to negative emotional states (e.g., stressed out, sad), designed for youths ages 8–18. Higher scores indicate greater emotional eating. The EES-C has demonstrated good convergent validity, discriminant validity, test-retest reliability, and construct validity (Tanofsky-Kraff et al., 2007). The total score, used in the current study, showed excellent internal consistency (α= .97).
