Correlates of problematic eating behaviors in less acculturated Latinas
چکیده انگلیسی

We examined whether body weight, depression, and body dissatisfaction could predict problematic eating behaviors in a community sample of less acculturated adult Latina women. Three hundred and forty-nine Latina women ages 20–40 were classified as non-overeater (n = 244), eating disorder not otherwise specified-binge eating disorder features (EDNOS-BED) (n = 65), or eating disorder not otherwise specified-bulimia nervosa features (EDNOS-BN) (n = 40). Participants completed measures of problematic eating behaviors, depression, and body image. Results revealed that normal weight and overweight women were at a higher risk only for EDNOS-BN, while obese women were at a higher risk for either EDNOS-BN or EDNOS-BED. Women with high depression scores were 16 times more likely to be assigned to the EDNOS-BN group than women with lower depression scores. Results illustrate the important role of depression and body weight in predicting problematic eating in less acculturated Latinas.
