The present study investigates whether the so-called disinhibition effect is better accounted for by tendency toward overeating than by restraint. The rationale was that in mood-induction studies, so far, the disinhibition effect has only been found in studies that applied the Restraint Scale and hardly ever in studies that used other restraint scales. Tension was induced by the public-speaking method in half of 86 female college students before they participated in an alleged taste test. The Restraint Scale (RS), the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) and the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) were used to measure restraint and tendency toward overeating. No differences were found between the tension and the control condition as to the amounts of food the participants ate. Also no proof of the disinhibition effect was obtained and, remarkably, tendency toward overeating did not predict the amount of food eaten. Possible explanations for these results are offered in the discussion.
本研究调查所谓的去抑制效应是否由暴饮暴食倾向而非克制来更好地解释。其基本原理是,在情绪诱导研究中,到目前为止,去抑制效应仅在应用克制量表的研究中被发现,而在使用其他克制量表的研究中几乎从未发现。在86名女大学生中,一半学生在参加所谓的味觉测试前通过公开演讲法诱导出紧张情绪。使用克制量表(RS)、三因素饮食问卷(TFEQ)和荷兰饮食行为问卷(DEBQ)来测量克制和暴饮暴食倾向。在参与者所吃食物量方面,紧张组和对照组之间未发现差异。也未获得去抑制效应的证据,而且值得注意的是,暴饮暴食倾向并未预测所吃食物的量。讨论中给出了这些结果的可能解释。
