背景先前的研究表明,与在美国出生的人相比,移民不太可能经历心理健康和抑制控制问题。然而,我们对美国移民中暴饮暴食和暴饮暴食的了解仍然有限--两者都与心理健康和抑制控制有关。从一个大型的全国性研究,我们报告的患病率暴饮暴食和暴饮暴食之间的移民维斯于美国出生的。MethodsThe数据源用于本研究是全国流行病学调查酒精和相关的条件(NESARC-III,2012-2013),全国代表性的调查36,309平民,非制度化的成年人年龄在18岁及以上的美国。Logistic回归分析移民身份和关键outcome.ResultsThe患病率的任何(移民= 7.8%,美国出生的= 17.0%)和经常暴饮暴食(移民= 2.9%,美国出生的= 5.3%)之间的关系是较低的移民比美国出生的个人。在那些报告经常暴饮暴食的人中,一般来说,移民(37.2%)和美国出生的参与者(39.9%)的暴饮暴食与失控的患病率相当。然而,分层分析显示,与美国出生的妇女相比,移民妇女暴饮暴食的风险较低(AOR 0.54,95%CI 0.29-0.98)。结论本研究的结果提供了明确的结果,即与美国出生的个体相比,移民不太可能吃得过多,而且,在女性中,而不是男性,移民身份与较低的暴饮暴食和失控的风险有关。
BackgroundPrior research indicates that, compared to individuals born in the United States (US), immigrants are less likely to experience mental health and inhibitory control problems. However, our understanding of overeating and binge eating—both related to mental health and inhibitory control—among immigrants in the US remains limited. Drawing from a large national study, we report the prevalence of overeating and binge eating among immigrants vis-à-vis the US-born.MethodsThe data source used for the present study is the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC-III, 2012–2013), a nationally representative survey of 36,309 civilian, non-institutionalized adults ages 18 and older in the US. Logistic regression was employed to examine the relationship between immigrant status and key outcomes.ResultsThe prevalence of any (immigrants = 7.8%, US-born = 17.0%) and recurrent overeating (immigrants = 2.9%, US-born = 5.3%) was lower among immigrants than US-born individuals. Among those reporting recurrent overeating, the prevalence of binge eating with loss of control was comparable among immigrant (37.2%) and US-born participants (39.9%), in general. However, stratified analyses revealed that risk of binge eating with loss of control was lower among immigrant women compared to US-born women (AOR 0.54, 95% CI 0.29–0.98).ConclusionsFindings from the present study provide clear results that immigrants are substantially less likely to overeat as compared to US-born individuals and that, among women but not men, immigrant status is associated with lower risk of binge eating with loss of control.
