–    Answer the following questions in full, proper sentences, directly below the question, and include referencing where appropriate/required – both in text and at the end of your text as a full reference – such as in a reference list (i.e., question 4a). Remember: Providing answers without credible sourcing (where required) is an unsubstantiated and unsearched claim/assumption or it could be plagiarism. If you simply write your opinions and present them as facts, you cannot receive a grade. It’s impossible to give grades to opinions (that is, non-sourced claims) and further, it’s impossible to give marks if you do not include a reference in your text as well as fully cited below your text (per APA conventions, such as you would in a reference page, where required).

1. In how many categories do you have a score above 24 (meaning, that you would need to work on that category)? Max 50 words.

2. What are your two highest-ranked categories? Max 50 words.

3. Are you surprised by the results? – not just your highest and lowest scores – but any and all of the results? What surprised you most – if anything? (be specific as to what surprised you or not, why or why not). Max 250 words.

4. Delving more deeply into your TWO highest ranked categories, provide an example of when your eating was triggered by each of those factors (e.g., if social eating is one of your top ranked categories, you could discuss a time when you weren’t hungry but your roommate ordered a pizza at 11pm and you ended up eating several slices despite not being hungry or feeling like pizza at the time). Repeat for your other top-ranked category (if you have more than two top-ranked categories, choose whichever two you like!). Max 350 words.

 4a. Discuss SPECIFIC examples related to one strategy you could employ in the future when you find yourself in similar situations – that is, ONE STRATEGY FOR EACH OF for your TWO top-ranked categories. Answering this question does not mean simply copy and pasting suggestions from your textbook; it involves going ONE STEP FURTHER than what is suggested in your textbook and providing concrete examples (Example: for social eating, one strategy your textbook offers is assertive communication (amongst others) – therefore, you could provide examples of how to be assertive in your communication; that is, what is assertive communication (per the literature)? How can you be more assertive in your communication (per the literature)? How could this be applied in a similar situation? Another example: for thinking eating, one strategy your textbook offers is being less self-critical (amongst others) – therefore, you could provide examples of how to be less critical or judgemental of yourself (research-based techniques), the detriments of being self-critical (per the literature), and how this can be applied in a similar situation. (At least one reference PER STRATEGY is required (so a minimum of 2 references total) so you can show you understand the strategy and how you’d apply it to the same situation in the future. Max 600 words.
