Σύνοψη	The Food Neophobia Scale is a 10-item self-report instrument measuring the degree to which individuals are reluctant or fearful of trying new foods. Developed by Pliner and Hobden in 1992, the FNS measures food neophobia—an aversion to unfamiliar foods—which is influenced by both evolutionary factors (caution toward unknown foods) and learned behaviors. The scale is widely used in nutrition, food science, and psychology research examining dietary diversity, food acceptance, and barriers to healthy eating.	The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire is a 33-item self-report instrument designed to assess three distinct eating behavior patterns: restrained eating (cognitive control of food intake), emotional eating (eating in response to negative emotions), and external eating (responsiveness to food cues). Developed by van Strien and colleagues in 1986, it is widely used in research on eating disorders, weight management, and psychological determinants of dietary behavior. The DEBQ is one of the most cited eating behavior questionnaires in behavioral nutrition research.
