This study examines the association of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms with fast food and soda consumption, unhealthy dieting behaviors, and body mass index (BMI) in a group of young women.
This study was conducted on cross-sectional data gathered from 3181 females 16-24 years of age attending five publicly funded clinics in Texas. The associations among PTSD, fast food consumption frequency, soda consumption frequency, unhealthy dieting behaviors, and BMI were examined using binary and ordinal logistic regression.
PTSD symptoms were associated with an increased frequency of consumption of fast food and soda as well as unhealthy dieting behaviors but not with increased body mass index (BMI).
PTSD symptoms adversely affect both eating and dieting behaviors of young women. These behaviors may have negative long-term consequences for the health of females with PTSD symptoms.
本研究旨在探讨创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)症状与快餐和苏打水消费、不健康的节食行为以及体重指数(BMI)之间的关系,研究对象为一组年轻女性。
本研究采用横断面数据,来自德克萨斯州五家公共资助诊所的 3181 名 16-24 岁女性。采用二项逻辑回归和有序逻辑回归分析 PTSD、快餐消费频率、苏打水消费频率、不健康节食行为与 BMI 之间的关联。
PTSD 症状与快餐和苏打水消费频率增加以及不健康的节食行为有关,但与体重指数(BMI)增加无关。
PTSD 症状对年轻女性的饮食和节食行为都有不良影响。这些行为可能对患有 PTSD 症状的女性的健康产生长期的负面影响。
