Several factors within the food environment may stimulate overconsumption. The present study aimed to (1) identify behavioural strategies to cope with this environment to control the amount of food consumed, (2) examine the feasibility and usefulness of the strategies, and (3) evaluate the association between the strategies and body mass index (BMI). After the literature was screened for evidence of factors that contribute to the consumption of large amounts of food, 32 behavioural strategies were identified to overcome these influences (study 1). Subjectively reported feasibility and usefulness of the 32 behavioural strategies in weight management were explored using a pretest post-test study (study 2: n = 52). Additionally, two cross-sectional questionnaire studies (study 3a: n = 120 and study 3b: n = 278) were conducted to evaluate the association between the 32 behavioural strategies and BMI. The strategies were subjectively reported as feasible and useful in weight management. Frequent use of strategies discriminated non-overweight from overweight individuals, but did not discriminate overweight from obese individuals. In conclusion, the findings provided preliminary evidence for the acceptability and validity of the strategies. The effectiveness of the strategies for controlling the amount consumed should be further investigated, especially in overweight and obese participants.
多种食物环境因素可能会刺激过度进食。本研究旨在：(1) 识别应对这种环境的行为策略，以控制食物的摄入量；(2) 检验这些策略的可行性和有用性；(3) 评估这些策略与身体质量指数（BMI）之间的关系。在对可能导致大量进食的因素进行文献筛选后，确定了 32 种行为策略来克服这些影响（研究 1）。采用预测试后测试研究（研究 2：n=52）探讨了 32 种行为策略在体重管理中的主观报告可行性和有用性。此外，还进行了两项横断面问卷调查研究（研究 3a：n=120 和研究 3b：n=278），以评估 32 种行为策略与 BMI 之间的关系。这些策略在体重管理中被主观报告为可行且有用。频繁使用这些策略可以区分非超重者和超重者，但不能区分超重者和肥胖者。总之，研究结果为这些策略的可接受性和有效性提供了初步证据。应进一步研究这些策略对控制摄入量的有效性，尤其是在超重和肥胖参与者中。
