Abstract

In the thesis process, many students are likely to experience stress or feel pressured and burned out. Such stress affects an individual’s psychological state, prompting an emotional eating tendency. This study is aimed at identifying the relationship between stress and the tendency of emotional eating in senior university students who were currently writing their undergraduate thesis at Universitas Mercu Buana Yogyakarta. The study hypothesized that a positive correlation exists between stress and emotional eating tendency in senior year students during thesis. Subjects comprised 100 students at Universitas Mercu Buana Yogyakarta. Data was collected using stress and emotional eating scales that were initially tested for reliability, and analyzed using nonparametric testing with Spearman’s Rho. The data analysis generated a correlation value rxy = 0,798 (p < 0,01) between stress and emotional eating tendency, indicating that a positive association exists between stress and emotional eating tendency, thus confirming the hypothesis. Stress contributed to emotional eating at 63,7%, while the effective contribution of 36,3% was accounted by other factors.
