目的：关于暴饮暴食症（BED）作为心理病理学上不同于其他形式的暴饮暴食的有效性，已经提出了一些问题。我们的目的是确定卧床个体与非暴饮暴食的肥胖成年人是否在重要方面存在差异。方法：卧床成年人是从社区招募的，体重匹配（肥胖）和正常体重对照（NWC）组也是如此。所有组的年龄和性别分布是相等的，并进行了评估的几个人格特质和饮食behaviors.Results：床的个人和肥胖的控制没有不同的人格特质。两者都比NWC更敏感，更焦虑，冲动和成瘾的人格特征。然而，BED个人报告显着更大的享乐饮食相比，肥胖，谁有更高的水平比NWC.Conclusion：我们的研究结果提供了没有证据的心理身份独特的肥胖成人与BED，虽然他们的饮食行为显着享乐驱动，即，对生理需求以外的因素反应更灵敏。(c)出版社：Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
Objective: Questions have been raised about the validity of binge eating disorder (BED) as psycho-pathologically distinct from other forms of overeating. Our purpose was to ascertain whether BED individuals differed in important ways from nonbinging obese adults.Method: BED adults were recruited from the community as were weight-matched (obese) and normal-weight control (NWC) groups. All groups were equivalent for age and gender distribution, and were assessed on several personality traits and eating behaviors.Results: BED individuals and obese controls did not differ on the personality traits. Both were more reward sensitive, and had greater anxiousness, impulsivity, and addictive personality traits than NWC. However, BED individuals reported significantly greater hedonic eating compared with the obese, who had higher levels than NWC.Conclusion: Our findings provided no evidence of a psychological identity unique to obese adults with BED although their eating behaviors are markedly hedonically driven-i.e., more responsive to factors external to physiological needs.
