To determine prevalence of eating attitude disorder (EAD) and the effect of self-esteem on EAD in female university students. Study Design:  In this cross-sectional study, female university students were included. The dependent variable was EAD determined by Eating Attitude Test-40. Socio-demographic characteristics, body perception, obesity, self-compassion and self-esteem were independent variables. Logistic regression (LR) models have been established to determine the associated factors of EAD.  p  &lt; 0.05 was considered significant. Results:  EAD were found in 3.3% ( n  = 20) of the participants ( n  = 600). 44.5% had low and medium self-esteem and %13.4 were overweight (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25.0). According to LR models, after adjusted for age, increased self-esteem score (decreased self-esteem) (OR:1.8, 95%CI:1.063–3.303) and practicing popular diet (OR:12.6, 95%CI:4.439–35.904) increased the risk of EAD significantly. Conclusion:  EAD were less than expected in this group of university students. Self-esteem is an important factor affecting EAD. Students with EAD may be recommended to get psychological support as well as nutritional counseling.
