To explore the relationship between symptoms of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), symptoms of binge eating disorder, and body mass index (BMI) among students at a southern university. Two hundred seventy-seven college students. Between January 31, 2013 and March 27, 2013, participants completed the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) Screener and the Binge Eating Scale (BES) in addition to permitting researchers to measure their height and weight. Higher ASRS scores, higher BMIs, and lower BES scores were observed among men. Among both men and women, BES scores were positively correlated with BMI and ASRS scores; however, the correlation between ASRS and BMI was not significant. Binge eating disorder symptomatology was associated with increased ADHD symptomatology and a higher BMI among both men and women. Among students presenting with obesity or ADHD, screening for binge eating may assist with the identification of problematic eating behaviors.
探讨南方某高校学生注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）症状、暴食症症状与体重指数（BMI）之间的关系。
277 名大学生。2013 年 1 月 31 日至 2013 年 3 月 27 日期间，参与者完成了成人 ADHD 自评量表（ASRS）筛查和暴食症量表（BES），此外还允许研究人员测量他们的身高和体重。男性的 ASRS 评分较高、BMI 较高和 BES 评分较低。在男性和女性中，BES 评分与 BMI 和 ASRS 评分呈正相关；然而，ASRS 与 BMI 之间的相关性并不显著。暴食症症状与 ADHD 症状加重和男女 BMI 升高有关。在出现肥胖或 ADHD 的学生中，筛查暴食症可能有助于识别有问题的饮食行为。
