The aim of the present study is to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ) in a sample of 335 Peruvian women (M = 28.37; SD = 12.48). Specific goals include: to evaluate the validity based on the internal structure of the scale, the convergent validity, and the reliability by internal consistency. A Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was carried out and showed that the three-factor model of the Spanish version of the DEBQ is adequately adjusted to the Peruvian population. Regarding reliability, it was found to be adequate (Cronbach’s alpha values: Emotional Eating = .92 [95% CI = .917 – 941], External Eating = .85 [95% CI = .821 – 873], Restrictive Eating = .88 [95% CI = .855 – 900]. As for convergent validity, it is evident that the three dimensions maintain a positive and statistically significant correlation with the BSQ-14. Thus, the restrictive eating scale obtained the highest correlation with the BSQ-14 (r = .58). The present study is the first adaptation of the DEBQ in peruvian population, which implies a contribution to the literature on the use of the instrument for the evaluation of eating styles in peruvian women.
