Recent studies have shown that the relationship between poor self-esteem and disturbed eating patterns may be more fully understood when the self-esteem concept is divided into an affective domain ('self-liking') and a cognitive domain ('self-competence'). In the present study 38 overweight women between the ages of 21 and 68 participated in an 8-week weight reduction program whereby the Self-Liking and Competence Scale [SLCS] and the Eating Disorder Scale [EDS-5] were used in order to measure self-esteem and eating patterns, respectively. An improvement in the eating patterns corresponded to an improvement in self-liking, but not in self-competence. Statistically significant weight reduction did occur, but on the average, the subjects still remained overweight. As in other studies on normal weight individuals in analogous test situations completing the same instruments, the results point only to a specific relationship between disturbed eating patterns and self-liking. The results suggest that an increased benefit from a weight reduction program could be expected if strategies for improving eating patterns and self-liking are included. This hypothesis warrants further controlled treatment studies.
最近的研究表明,当自尊概念被分为情感领域(“自我喜爱”)和认知领域(“自我能力”)时,自卑与饮食模式紊乱之间的关系可能会得到更全面的理解。在本研究中,38名年龄在21岁至68岁之间的超重女性参加了一个为期8周的减肥项目,在此过程中分别使用了自我喜爱与能力量表[SLCS]和饮食失调量表[EDS-5]来测量自尊和饮食模式。饮食模式的改善与自我喜爱的改善相对应,但与自我能力无关。确实出现了具有统计学意义的体重减轻,但平均而言,受试者仍然超重。与其他在类似测试情境中使用相同工具对正常体重个体进行的研究一样,结果仅表明饮食模式紊乱与自我喜爱之间存在特定关系。结果表明,如果纳入改善饮食模式和自我喜爱的策略,减肥项目可能会带来更大的益处。这一假设值得进一步的对照治疗研究。
