Three common factors has extracted:that were uncontrol of eating(UE),cognitive restriction of eating(CR)and emotional eating(EE).And which could explain 58.9% of the total variants of variance.Confirmatory factors a-nalysis showed that the three factor model had good fitting parameters(GFI=0.872,AGFI=0.834,IFI=0.903, CFI=0.902,RMSEA=0.076,AIC=393.139).The internal consistency reliability Cronbach’sαcoefficient of TFEQ R18V3 was 0.76~0.89.And all the retest reliability coefficients were all above 0.7.And it has good criterion validity.Conclusions:The revised Chinese version of TFEQ R18V3 has good reliability and validity a-mong college students.And it could be used as an effective tool for the measurement of dietary behavior.
