EATERtypes™ is the first online assessment specifically developed to help you understand your eating habits and preferences and how they can affect your weight.
It has been developed by SHAPE.SMART™ in partnership with psychometric consultants and a panel of healthcare professionals.

There are nine core EATERtypes™ and the questions have been designed to identify your primary, secondary and tertiary EATERtype™ personality. On completion of the assessment, you will be given tailored, practical advice on how you can make positive, straightforward and sustainable changes to help you lose weight.

  • The assessment contains 18 questions and should take you no longer than 10 minutes to complete.
  • Each question has 3 statements that relate to your personal style of eating.
  • You need to choose the statement that is 'MOST like you' and the statement that is 'LEAST like you' for each question.
  • The assessment has been developed for people that want to lose weight. It is suitable for people with a BMI of 18.5 and above.

Some advice for completing the questionnaire

Take your time but don't dwell too long on your answers.

Remember to be honest with yourself - answer the questions in the way you see yourself NOT how you'd like to.

You must answer all the questions.

Don't worry if you find it hard to make a choice - simply pick the statements you feel are best for you personally.
