yes / An increase in obesity is usually accompanied by an increase in eating disturbances.
Susceptibility to these states may arise from different combinations of underlying
traits: Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) Restraint and Disinhibition. Two
studies were conducted to examine the interaction between these traits; one on-line study
(n=351) and one laboratory-based study (n=120). Participants completed a battery of questionnaires
and provided self-report measures of body weight and physical activity. A combination
of high Disinhibition and high Restraint was associated with a problematic eating
behaviour profile (EAT-26), and a higher rate of smoking and alcohol consumption. A
combination of high Disinhibition and low Restraint was associated with a higher susceptibility
to weight gain and a higher sedentary behaviour. These data show that different
combinations of Disinhibition and Restraint are associated with distinct weight and behaviour
outcomes.
