Validity and Applicability of the Eating Motivation Survey (TEMS) in a University Population in the Western Brazilian Amazon.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study aimed to test the factorial structure of the Eating Motivation Survey (TEMS) using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) in a sample of 632 university students from the Western Brazilian Amazon. A cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2022 and April 2023 with participants of both sexes, aged 18 or older. In addition to CFA, psychometric analyses were performed, and a Structural Equation Model was developed to examine the relationships between individual characteristics (age, sex, and Body Mass Index (BMI)) and the TEMS constructs. The results showed that 58.3% of participants were female, with a mean age of 25.29 years. The CFA supported an eight-factor model (health, natural concerns, socialization, price, visual appeal, weight control, emotional control, and social image) with 24 items, presenting good validity and reliability indices. Older individuals and those with lower BMIs prioritized health, natural concerns, and weight control, while younger participants, women, and those with higher BMIs were more influenced by emotional control. The findings contribute to understanding eating motivations in culturally diverse contexts and may support strategies aimed at promoting healthier dietary behaviors and preventing diet-related chronic diseases.
