The present study explored the associations between orthorexia nervosa, social media addiction, emotion regulation difficulties, perfectionism and BMI with four facets of mindful eating, using path analysis to assess these relationships. A sample of 551 students (127 males, 424 females, mean age = 22.6 years) completed an online self-report questionnaire evaluating these constructs. Analyses revealed that mindful eating contributed to emotion dysregulation and orthorexia nervosa and was related to social media addiction. Significant indirect paths were identified from mindful eating, social media addiction and adaptive perfectionism through emotion dysregulation to maladaptive perfectionism. While no direct paths were observed between mindful eating and perfectionism, a direct path was found between adaptive perfectionism and orthorexia nervosa. These findings suggest a more nuanced understanding of eating behaviours is required. Individuals susceptible to eating disorders should approach mindful eating with caution and seek support from healthcare providers to ensure it is used in a way that supports overall wellbeing. Future research should aim to replicate and further clarify these associations to reveal the long-term effects of mindful eating.
本研究采用路径分析评估了饮食正念的四个方面与神经性厌食症、社交媒体成瘾、情绪调节困难、完美主义和 BMI 之间的关系。该研究使用路径分析评估了这些关系。一个由 551 名学生（127 名男性，424 名女性，平均年龄 22.6 岁）组成的样本完成了一份在线自我报告问卷，评估了这些结构。分析结果表明，饮食正念与情绪失调和神经性厌食症有关，并与社交媒体成瘾有关。通过情绪失调，饮食正念、社交媒体成瘾和适应性完美主义与不适应完美主义之间存在显著的间接路径。虽然在饮食正念和完美主义之间没有直接的路径，但在适应性完美主义和神经性厌食症之间存在直接的路径。这些发现表明，需要更细致地了解饮食行为。容易出现饮食失调的个体在进行饮食正念时应该谨慎，并寻求医疗保健提供者的支持，以确保其以支持整体健康的方式使用。未来的研究应旨在复制和进一步澄清这些关联，以揭示饮食正念的长期影响。
