Excessive gestational weight gain is associated with negative outcomes and the identification of contributing psychosocial factors may be useful in prevention and intervention. Pregnant women ( = 70) completed self-report measures of eating pathology, depressive symptomatology, and gestational weight gain. Global eating pathology was positively associated with overvaluation of shape and weight, dietary restraint, frequency of binge eating, and depressive symptoms. Depressive symptoms significantly predicted excessive gestational weight gain, while global eating pathology predicted excessive gestational weight gain at a trend level. Results suggest that depressive symptoms more strongly predict excessive gestational weight gain than eating pathology.
孕期体重过度增加与不良后果相关，识别相关的社会心理因素可能有助于预防和干预。70名孕妇完成了关于饮食病理学、抑郁症状和孕期体重增加的自我报告测量。总体饮食病理学与对体型和体重的过度重视、饮食限制、暴饮暴食频率以及抑郁症状呈正相关。抑郁症状显著预测了孕期体重过度增加，而总体饮食病理学在趋势水平上预测了孕期体重过度增加。结果表明，抑郁症状比饮食病理学更能强烈预测孕期体重过度增加。
