Evaluation of the eating behavior of TUM employees during the lockdown

Abstract

The pandemic has affected education systems around the world, leading to widespread closures of educational institutions, which has affected not only students but academics as well. The stress to which academics were subjected can have consequences on occupational health and quality of life, due to negative eating behaviors and due to lack of physical activity. Research on the effects of pandemic restrictions on teachers is limited. Therefore, the respective study aimed to analyze the food behavior of UTM employees, in the context of the pandemic.
