There has been growing research indicating the potential positive benefits of mindfulness-based interventions for obesity, but few studies have examined the relationship of mindfulness processes to obesity-related behaviors, particularly among clinical populations such as bariatric surgery candidates. The current study examined the relationship of specific mindfulness facets to a variety of problematic eating behaviors assessed through diagnostic interviews in a clinical sample of 820 patients seeking bariatric surgery. Results indicated that greater mindfulness on specific facets, particularly acting with awareness, was related to less binge and emotional eating. Greater mindfulness was also related, though less consistently, to less habitual overeating and grazing. The observing facet was generally unrelated to problematic eating, but in a few cases being more observant related to having greater eating problems. The results of the study and future directions are discussed in relation to research on problematic eating in obesity and mindfulness-based interventions.
越来越多的研究表明，基于正念的干预措施对肥胖可能有积极的益处，但很少有研究探讨正念过程与肥胖相关行为之间的关系，特别是在肥胖症手术候选者等临床人群中。本研究在一个寻求肥胖症手术的 820 名患者的临床样本中，通过诊断访谈评估了特定正念方面与各种不良饮食行为之间的关系。结果表明，在特定方面表现出更高的正念，特别是有意识地行动，与暴食和情绪化进食的次数减少有关。更大的正念也与习惯性暴饮暴食和频繁进食的次数减少有关，但一致性较低。观察方面通常与不良饮食无关，但在某些情况下，更善于观察与更严重的饮食问题有关。研究结果和未来方向与肥胖症中不良饮食和基于正念的干预研究有关。
