The present study was designed to test whether dietary restraint and negative affect mediate the relationship between body dissatisfaction and bulimic behavior. Four hundred and twelve female students completed questionnaires which measured body dissatisfaction, restrained eating, negative affect and bulimic behavior. The results indicated that dietary restraint and negative affect partially mediated the relationship between body dissatisfaction and bulimic behaviors. The findings are discussed in light of previous research which suggests that restraint needs to be viewed as a multidimensional construct. Longitudinal studies are now needed to investigate the causal and possible bidirectional nature of the interrelationships in the model tested here.
本研究旨在测试饮食节制和消极情绪是否介导身体不满与暴食行为之间的关系。412名女学生完成了测量身体不满、节制饮食、消极情绪和暴食行为的问卷。结果表明，饮食节制和消极情绪部分介导了身体不满与暴食行为之间的关系。根据先前的研究对这些发现进行了讨论，先前的研究表明，节制需要被视为一个多维结构。现在需要进行纵向研究来调查此处测试模型中相互关系的因果及可能的双向性质。
