The purpose of the current study was to examine the relationship among emotional regulation, emotional overeating, and general eating pathology in a treatment seeking sample of adults with Binge Eating Disorder (BED).
The sample was composed of 326 adults (248 women, 78 men) who were obese and met DSM-IV-TR criteria for BED. Prior to treatment, participants completed the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Emotional Overeating Questionnaire (EOQ), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) as part of a larger assessment battery.
A series of hierarchical regression analyses indicated that difficulties with emotion regulation accounted for unique variance in both emotional overeating and general eating pathology above and beyond sex and negative affect.
Emotion regulation may play a significant role in the maintenance of emotional overeating and eating pathology in obese adults with BED.
本研究旨在探讨情绪调节、情绪性暴食与暴食障碍(BED)患者的一般饮食病理学之间的关系。
该样本由 326 名肥胖且符合 DSM-IV-TR 暴食障碍标准的成年人(248 名女性,78 名男性)组成。在治疗前,参与者完成了情绪调节困难量表(DERS)、情绪性暴食问卷(EOQ)、贝克抑郁量表(BDI)和饮食障碍检查问卷(EDE-Q)作为更大评估组合的一部分。
一系列层次回归分析表明,情绪调节困难在性别和负性情绪之外,还可以解释情绪性暴食和一般饮食病理学的独特差异。
情绪调节可能在肥胖的 BED 成年人中对情绪性暴食和饮食病理学的维持起着重要作用。
