Psychological characteristics associated with eating motives of the Palatable Eating Motives Scale (PEMS) were identified in 192 undergraduates. Coping was characterized by greater BMI, emotion-triggered eating, and eating concern and also by binge-eating and perceived stress reactivity in females. Reward Enhancement was characterized by greater BMI, anxiety- and depression-eating in females and by anger/frustration-eating in males. Conformity was strongly characterized by binge-eating and by failure-based stress and all eating disorder traits in females and by anger/frustration- and anxiety-eating in males. The sex-divergent patterns of these traits across PEMS motives highlight the heterogeneity of hedonic eating. The traits may also be maintaining the motives, hence adresseing them should improve treatments for obesity, binge-eating, and foster healthier coping, reward, and psychosocial interactions.
在192名本科生中确定了与美味饮食动机量表（PEMS）的饮食动机相关的心理特征。应对的特征是体重指数更高、情绪引发的进食、对饮食的关注，以及女性的暴饮暴食和感知到的压力反应性。奖励增强的特征是体重指数更高、女性的焦虑和抑郁引发的进食以及男性的愤怒/挫折引发的进食。顺从的强烈特征是女性的暴饮暴食、基于失败的压力和所有饮食失调特征，以及男性的愤怒/挫折和焦虑引发的进食。这些特征在PEMS动机中的性别差异模式突出了享乐性饮食的异质性。这些特征也可能维持着这些动机，因此解决这些问题应该会改善对肥胖、暴饮暴食的治疗，并促进更健康的应对、奖励和社会心理互动。
