Objectives: This study was conducted to identify the relationship between depression and eating disorders among college students of northern Gyeonggi-do in Korea. Methods: This was a self-report study, targeting a total number of 481 college students. We used the eating attitudes test-26 (EAT-26) to identify participants with eating disorders, while the degree of depression was evaluated by a self-diagnostic test composed of 10 questions. Results: Among the participants, 18.9% were found to have an eating disorder (91 out of 481 participants). The depression score for students with eating disorders was markedly higher (4.73points) than that for students with normal eating habits (2.57 points). We noted a statistically significant association between eating disorder and depression. Specifically, when depression score increased by 1 point, the risk of eating disorder was 1.31 times higher. Additional factors that increased the risk of having eating disorders besides depression were eating late, weight loss, degree of stress, and satisfaction with one’s appearance. Conclusions: In this study, we found that depression plays an important role in the development of eating disorders. Therefore, it is need to develop programs to promote right eating habits and prevent depression for college students.
