It is likely that disrupted early parent-child relationships, eating disorder related cognitions and negative self-beliefs are relevant to some women who are overweight/obese.
This study tested the hypotheses that disrupted parent-child relationships would be linked to higher body mass index (BMI) and that this relationship would then be mediated by cognition.
A group of women were recruited from the community and completed measures of eating disorder (ED) thoughts, negative self-beliefs, and parental bonding. Individual body mass indices (BMIs) were calculated.
One hundred and eighteen women completed the study. There was a relationship between parental bonding and higher BMI. As hypothesized, the relationship between parental bonding (as measured by maternal care, and paternal overprotection) and BMI appeared to be mediated by a range of ED thoughts, and some negative self-beliefs.
The cognitions measured here, both ED related cognitions and negative self-beliefs, may be a useful target when considering psychological treatment for women who are overweight or obese.
早期亲子关系破裂、饮食失调相关认知和消极的自我信念可能与一些超重/肥胖女性有关。
本研究检验了以下假设：亲子关系破裂与更高的体重指数（BMI）相关，且这种关系将由认知介导。
从社区招募一组女性，她们完成了饮食失调（ED）想法、消极自我信念和亲子关系的测量。计算个体体重指数（BMI）。
118名女性完成了研究。亲子关系与更高的BMI之间存在关联。如假设的那样，亲子关系（以母亲关怀和父亲过度保护来衡量）与BMI之间的关系似乎由一系列饮食失调想法和一些消极自我信念介导。
此处测量的认知，即饮食失调相关认知和消极自我信念，在考虑对超重或肥胖女性进行心理治疗时可能是一个有用的靶点。
