情绪影响进食行为的过程是情绪进食领域尚未解决的中心问题之一。目前的研究提出了一种假设,即人们用来处理这些情绪的调节策略是导致进食量增加的原因。诱发负性情绪,通过味觉测试测量舒适性食物和非舒适性食物的摄入量。在情绪诱导之前,通过测量情绪调节策略的个体差异(研究1),或者通过指示以适应性(重新评价)或非适应性(抑制)的方式调节情绪(研究2)。研究3还要求在没有任何管理说明的情况下进行控制。相对于重新评价和自发表达,压抑导致了食物摄入量的增加,但仅限于舒适的食物。情绪本身并不是造成这种影响的原因。这些发现提供了新的证据,表明情绪调节的方式会影响饮食行为。
The process by which emotions affect eating behavior emerges as one of the central unresolved questions in the field of emotional eating. The present studies address the hypothesis that the regulation strategies people use to deal with these emotions are responsible for increased eating. Negative emotions were induced and intake of comfort food and non-comfort food was measured by means of taste tests. Emotion induction was preceded by measuring individual differences in emotion regulation strategies (Study 1) or by instructions to regulate emotions in either an adaptive (reappraisal) or maladaptive (suppression) manner (Study 2). Study 3 also entailed a control condition without any regulation instructions. Relative to reappraisal and spontaneous expression, suppression led to increased food intake, but only of the comfort foods. Emotions themselves were not responsible for this effect. These findings provide new evidence that the way in which emotions are regulated affects eating behavior.
