Resumo:
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between mindful eating and eating pathology. This was accomplished by using two measures, the Eating Disorder Inventory, Third Edition (EDI-3), and the Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ). Participants included in this study were 134 students from a midsized mid-south university who were asked to complete a demographics measure, EDI-3, and MEQ. Only three scales from the EDI-3 were considered; Drive for Thinness, Bulimia, and Body Dissatisfaction. Combined they provide an Eating Disorder Risk Composite (EDRC) score. Results indicated that there was no significant relationship between the MEQ overall score and the EDRC score, which implies that there is no relationship between mindful eating and eating pathology, specifically eating disorder risk. Additional analyses revealed significant negative correlations between the Awareness, Disinhibition, and Emotional Response subscales of the MEQ and the EDRC score. This study contributes to the limited research on the relationship between mindful eating and eating pathology. Results from this study indicate that the specific aforementioned factors have a greater impact on eating pathology when compared to the overall concept of mindfulness.

Overview This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Clinical Psychology at the School of Psychology, University of Birmingham. The thesis consists of two volumes. Volume I This volume comprises two parts. The first part is a review of the literature regarding the role of attachment processes in the eating disorders. The second part is a qualitative study that investigates the personal meaning of eating disorder symptoms. The literature review suggests that although attachment processes appear to play a role in the development and maintenance of eating disorders, the precise relationship is unclear. This paper has been prepared for submission to the British Journal of Clinical Psychology. The empirical study uses interpretative phenomenological analysis in an effort to understand the sense people make of their eating disorder experiences. This paper has been prepared for submission to the Journal of Health Psychology. The Executive Summary is also submitted in this volume. Volume II Five Clinical Practice Reports (CPR) are presented in this volume. The first report details the case of a young man experiencing panic attacks and anxiety, formulated from a cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic perspective. The second report is an evaluation of a new assessment process within a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service. The third report is a single-case experimental study of an older woman who was experiencing panic-attacks and separation anxiety. The fourth report is a case study of psychotic experiences in a middle-aged man with learning disabilities, formulated from a person-based cognitive therapy perspective. The fifth report is the abstract of an oral presentation of attachment-related considerations within work with a substance-misuse service. All names and identifying features have been changed to ensure confidentiality.

Emotional eating plays a significant role in the aetiology of eating disorders and obesity, and has been observed in healthy, non-restrained individuals. Despite this, research that examines emotional eating has mainly focused on females, obese populations and individuals who have a formal diagnosis of an eating disorder, the studies of which have been mainly involved surveys, experimental, observational or quantitative methods. Research has also found significant gender differences in emotional eating, yet there has been limited investigation into emotional eating in men. This research attempted to understand the process of emotional eating in men using constructivist grounded theory. The purpose of this study was to understand the way in which men use food in response to emotions and the impact it has on their psychological well-being. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with thirteen male participants aged between 23-61 years of age. All participants were fluent in English, half of the participants were from the UK, 4 were from Europe, and the remaining three were from Mexico, Egypt and Malaysia. Four main categories were developed from the data: Negotiating Masculinity, Emotional Eating Serving a Function, Seeking Control and Stuck in the Cycle. One core category encompassed all of the categories: Navigating Emotions and Masculinity through Eating. The categories were complex and linked to one another, demonstrating the cyclical nature of emotional eating. An emergent theory was developed and mapped onto a conceptualisation that attempts to explain the process of emotional eating in men, demonstrating the way masculinity affects the way that these men cope with their emotions through eating. The findings of this study provide an insight for Counselling Psychologists and other mental health practitioners working with men who struggle with managing their emotions and turn to food in attempt to cope.

Resumo:
The National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has suggested that 1.6 million people in the UK are affected by eating disorders (NICE, 2004). Generally speaking, eating disorders have major physical, psychological and social consequences (Hjern et al., 2006), often characterized by a poor quality of life (De la Rie et al., 2007) and a high health burden (Mond et al., 2009). Furthermore, anorexia nervosa has the highest rate of mortality of any psychiatric disorder, due to both medical complications associated with the disorder and suicide (BEAT, 2014). This statistic alone is indicative of the vitality of eating disorder research particularly that focused on treatment and prevention. Though the ‘poor quality of life’ and ‘high health burden’ are attributed to the individual sufferer, these adverse complications often seep into the immediate family, including children (Stitt & Rupert, 2014). The majority of studies in this field have explored the impact of parental eating disorders on their children; with a focus on the quantitative relationship between the maternal eating disorder and child development, birth weight and feeding logistics (Stitt & Rupert, 2014). The mother’s subjective experience has been widely neglected. Linville et al. have explored the sociocultural influences on the development of eating disorders. Their evidence suggested that the parents, as the primary socialization agents to their children, significantly influence the development of body image disturbances and disordered eating (Linville et al., 2011). Familial eating disorder pathology has long been a source of ongoing investigation, as studies have consistently indicated that the immediate relatives of individuals with anorexia nervosa show an increased risk of developing an eating disorder themselves (Watkins, Cooper & Lask, 2012). Though the degree of correlation pertaining to genetic and environmental influence is unclear, the link itself is consistent and compelling (Lilenfeld & Kaye, 1998). This chapter will consider the literature surrounding mothers’ experiences of feeding her children while having a disordered relationship with food. First I will consider the impact that parental psychiatric disorders have on their children, specifically, the relationship between maternal eating disorders and child development. I will then review the evidence that characterizes the children of mothers with eating disorders as a ‘at risk’ population. Previous research has identified a number of difficulties that mothers with eating disorders encounter within their parenting role; these will be explored, with a particular focus on the mothers’ subjective experience of feeding their children. And finally, the literature on the transgenerational transmission of eating disorders from mother to child will be reviewed. Treatment options will be contemplated, with a view to creating interventions specifically tailored to mothers with eating disorders and their families. A look forward in the direction of future research will be explored, specifically the effectiveness of family therapy for adults with eating disorders. There is an uneven distribution in the literature of research focused on the quantitative impact of maternal eating disorders on children and the risk of transmission. This bias manifests in an unsaturated body of evidence exploring the mothers’ experience. The current chapter will reflect this disproportionate emphasis and attend to both the majority and minority perspectives. This literature review will illuminate the need for more qualitative research, exploring the mothers’ experience of being a parent while having an eating disorder, specifically, her subjective account of engaging in the function of feeding her children.

The overall aim of this thesis was to better understand the specific cognitive and neural mechanisms that may serve as risk factors to the development of disordered eating behaviour. In Chapter 2, findings are suggestive of a novel mechanism guiding attention to food cues in overweight/obesity through working memory. Differential attentional processing of food cues was also found to be a predictor of weight gain at one-year follow-up. In Chapter 3, a systematic review of the evidence for an association between Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and disordered eating, suggests a moderate strength of between ADHD and disordered eating; a framework for future research was proposed to guide future studies on ADHD and disordered eating. Chapter 4 aimed to address some of the research gaps outlined in Chapter 3. Notably, in two independent studies, findings provide the first evidence for a direct relationship between inattentive symptoms of ADHD and binge/disinhibited eating behaviour. In Chapter 5, an experimental design was employed to investigate eating behaviour in ADHD using laboratory measures, in conjunction with self-report measures, along with performance-based tasks to assess specific cognitive constructs, and neural correlates of eating behaviour. This model can also be used to the study of other mental disorders associated with disordered eating behaviour. Overall, this thesis provides novel and theoretical insights into the role of attention in guiding eating behaviour. The findings can inform future research and may have implications for the management and treatment of individuals with overweight/obesity, ADHD and/or disordered eating.

This paper aims to study the factors relating to eating disorders and disordered eating onset. Adolescents are the focus on this review and through the evaluation of these factors. Individual factors being addressed are as follows: active social media use, experience of child abuse or maltreatment, and chronic illnesses. Evaluating family factors such as family history, experience of intimate partner violence, and parenting dynamics allow us to understand the environment and its effect on eating disorder onset. Finally, protective factors addressed include parental resilience, concrete support, and emotional competence. Understanding the associations between these factors and disordered eating will aid in better treating and preventing eating disorders in adolescents.

Quality of life is an important aspect of the assessment of medical and psychiatric disorders, such as eating disorders. Eating disorders affect both the emotional and physical wellbeing of individuals who suffer from them and presumably impact quality of life. The purpose of this study was to assess the quality of life of individuals seeking inpatient treatment for an eating disorder using the Quality of Life Inventory. This assessment is unique because it considers both the importance and satisfaction of life domains and it is also very comprehensive, assessing 16 life domains both quantitatively and qualitatively. This is the first study to report on the use of the Quality of Life Inventory in an eating disorder sample. It was hypothesized that patients with eating disorders would have significantly worse quality of life than non-clinical groups and similar quality of life compared to other clinically impaired groups. This hypothesis was confirmed. It was also predicted that individuals with anorexia and bulimia nervosa would have statistically equivalent quality of life global scores but differences on domain scores, and this was confirmed as well. Finally, it was hypothesized that treatment history, number of co-morbid disorders, body mass index, and eating disorder symptoms would be related to quality of life, which was not supported. These results contribute to the literature about quality of life of individuals with eating disorders by supporting existing findings based on other quality of life measures and add information about life domains not previously assessed by other measures.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between viewing fitspirational content and women's body image, exercise attitudes, and eating attitudes. It was hypothesized that viewing fitspirational content would lead to a reduction in body image and an increase in eating disorder-related thoughts and guilt or sadness related to exercising. One significant interaction was found, which implied that individuals who had viewed the fitspirational content had more guilt and depressive feelings related to exercise than individuals in the control group when comparing to the pre-test. None of the remaining hypotheses were supported.

This thesis distils from a mass of research the patterns of expressions and etiological factors in eating disorders. Drawing on a diversity of research fields - epidemiology, historical accounts, femininity theories, clinical and social psychology, neuroscience, and object relations models -, I have found that intrusion, as the overwhelming experience of invasion of receptivity in the primal mother-child dyad, is the fundamental psychological factor in the etiology of eating disorders and that this factor transcends gender. Through articulating what I have coined the male ‘homosexual exception’ in disorders that mostly affect women, I have shown that both men and women are susceptible to eating disorders in proportion to their vulnerability to fears of intrusion into receptivity. To arrive at this conclusion, I have made use of, and transcended, stereotypes of gender through which eating disorders have been seen to be essentially diseases of the female, in connection with female receptive anatomy and development, and their increase among males, in particular homosexual males, has been either overlooked or a mystery. In helping refine the intrusion thesis beyond a notion of receptivity exclusively linked to female anatomy, my interpretation of the particular vulnerability of women and of a subgroup of male homosexuals to eating disorders has allowed transcending stereotypes of sexual orientation from which my study originated.

More than a third of all adults in the United States are considered obese. Due to the high costs of health care for obese adults and children, obesity has become a national health crisis. Many government programs have been developed to curtail obesity in adults and children. Unfortunately, there has only been limited success. Past research has shown that obesity has been linked to stress and eating while stressed. Emotional eating occurs when individuals respond to certain emotions, such as stress, by eating to cope with the emotion. Research has shown a correlation between nursing and disordered eating. Given the stressful working environment of mental health workers, the purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of mental health workers who self-identify as emotional eaters. Selye's stress response theory and Heatherton and Baumeister's affect regulation model provided the theoretical framework for this study. Participants included 12 purposefully selected individuals from a specific mental health agency who responded to semi-structured interview questions. Data were analyzed for themes and patterns. The major themes included stress related to mental health work, food patterns altered due to stress, and ways to manage emotional eating. Future research should include a larger sample size across different geographical regions and agencies and the inclusion of individuals who do not self-identify as emotional eaters. With greater knowledge and understanding on the reasons people choose to eat when stressed, individuals and employers may be able to gain insight and make changes that would allow them to manage stress at work without food.

This dissertation examines social comparison tendencies in young women during eating disorder (ED) recovery. Study one drew on a photo-elicitation method (“PhotoVoice”) and semi-structured interviews to examine this relation. Thirty U.S. women, ages 18-35, in self-defined recovery from disordered eating, used photography to capture personally-meaningful social and cultural influences on their recovery. Participants then shared these photographs with the research team and described them in detail. Photographs and interviews were examined for social comparisons using thematic analysis, and two broad categories emerged: recovery-promoting and recovery-hindering comparisons. The presence of both “upward” and “downward” comparisons that both support and hinder recovery suggests that social comparisons during the recovery process are more nuanced than previously known. Study two drew from this qualitative data to revise and validate an existing measure of food and body comparisons for women in ED recovery. Women from across the U.S. (n = 183) completed measures of body, eating, and exercise social comparison general comparison orientation, and body dissatisfaction and disordered eating in one online session. After removing four items based on prior research and theory, the revised model fit the data well. Results suggest that body, eating, and exercise social comparisons continue to correlate with body dissatisfaction and disordered eating during recovery, but there are nuances in the content of the comparisons. Study three used this revised measure of social comparison to examine how the interrelations among thin ideal internalization, social comparison, and disordered eating outcomes vary throughout the disorder and recovery processes. An additional 78 women with an active ED, and 178 healthy-control women completed the above-mentioned measures, along with a measure of thin-ideal internalization. Multi-group path analysis showed that the relations among these constructs change between disordered eating and recovery. Study four drew from the same interviews explored in study one, returning to the interviews and photographs to highlight the key areas of potential change for clinicians and policymakers. Participant responses clustered into six themes: healthcare practice and access, health insurance reform, education, objectification of the female body, and mental health stigma. Direct suggestions and implications are discussed.

Resumo:
There is a growing professional concern regarding the existence of pro eating disorder (pro-ED) websites. Previous research investigating the impact of pro-ED websites has comprised analyses of website content and experimental exposure of mock pro-ED content with participants from non-clinical populations. The few studies involving the assessment of pro-ED website use in individuals with eating disorders have predominantly used online survey methodology. The findings from these studies suggest that pro-ED websites may have a detrimental impact on emotional and physical wellbeing. The present study sought to explore the function and impact of pro-ED websites in a clinical sample of individuals in treatment for an eating disorder. Participants were recruited through tier two community mental health teams and tier three specialist eating disorder services within two NHS Health Boards in South Wales. Individual face to face interviews were conducted with seven adult females receiving treatment for an eating disorder who had disclosed historic or current use of pro-ED websites. Constructivist Grounded Theory was used to analyse the data. Five key themes were identified within the interview transcripts: fear, cognitive dissonance, social comparisons, shame, and pro-ED website maintaining eating disordered behaviour. Pro-ED websites were often used to reduce a sense of social isolation, fuelled by stigma and shame associated with the eating disorder and use of pro-ED websites. Individuals experienced cognitive dissonance regarding their use of pro-ED websites, and the websites were often used to protect themselves from pressures to recover. The pro-ED websites appeared to offer a sense of support, validation and reassurance, whilst simultaneously reinforcing and maintaining eating disordered behaviour. Websites were often used to motivate food restriction, and were at times used as a method of punishment when individuals experienced self-criticism. The findings are discussed in relation to implications for eating disorder treatment services and recommendations for future research are outlined.

The general aim of this thesis was to examine links between childhood abuse and eating disorders. In the first chapter, research that investigates mediators in this relationship is reviewed. Very few studies that adhered to recommended means of testing for mediation were found, but preliminary findings suggested a potential mediating role for a number of variables, including core beliefs. In the second chapter, a factor analysis of the Childhood Abuse and Trauma Scale was performed. Support for a four factor structure was found as well as for the importance of considering subjective experiences of childhood abuse. Findings also suggested that researchers should look to investigate the impact of witnessing the abuse of other family members, as this emerged as a separate factor. In the third chapter, a non-clinical group of 135 undergraduate and nursing students completed standardised measures of childhood abuse, core beliefs and disordered eating attitudes. Mediational analysis provided support for a model where the relationship between childhood neglect and bulimia was perfectly mediated by subjugation beliefs and partially mediated by seven other beliefs (emotional deprivation, mistrust/abuse, social isolation, defectiveness/shame, emotional inhibition, entitlement and failure to achieve). In the final chapter, reflections on the process of conducting research as part of a clinical psychology doctorate are discussed.

The research comprises a literature review and an empirical study. The literature review evaluated the efficacy of third wave cognitive and behavioural interventions for eating disorders. The review indicated that there was some promising initial support for these approaches in the treatment of eating related difficulties. However, further research in this area, using more stringent methodology, is required in order to confirm the efficacy of these approaches for eating disorders. The empirical study aimed to examine whether women experiencing eating psychopathology report difficulties in regulating emotions and whether these difficulties contribute to eating psychopathology. Forty-eight women with eating related difficulties and a non-clinical comparison group completed questionnaire measures of eating behaviour, affect and emotion regulation difficulties. Higher levels of emotion regulation difficulties were reported by the women with eating difficulties. In the comparison group, lack of emotional awareness predicted variation in eating psychopathology. In the clinical group, impulse control difficulties predicted variation in eating psychopathology. The results revealed differences in the nature of emotion regulation difficulties that impacted on eating psychopathology between clinical and non-clinical samples. Further research investigating the relationship between emotion regulation and eating psychopathology and the possible mediating effect of anxiety within clinical populations is indicated.

Objective: This study investigates the relationships between metacognitions, emotions and disordered eating in women with or without an eating disorder, as well as differences between these groups. Method: 326 participants were included in the study and completed the following questionnaires: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Meta-Cognitions Questionnaire 30 (MCQ-30) and the Eating Disorder Examination Self-Report Questionnaire (EDE-Q). Results: Women with an eating disorder expressed more metacognitive concerns than women without a significant disordered eating pathology. Regression analysis showed that the majority of eating disorder symptoms were predicted by anxiety and depression for both groups, but the need to control thoughts was the only metacognition which stood out as an independent predictor of disordered eating. Discussion: Implications of these findings as well as the limitations of this study are discussed.

Binge eating disorder (BED) is a new eating disorder warranting further research due to the relatively high-prevalence and limited research on the subject of recovery, particularly from a qualitative standpoint. Qualitative methods were used to analyze secondary data from pro-recovery internet message boards in order to investigate the changes in thinking and motivation of binge-eating disorder sufferers who were able to recover from the disorder, to understand more fully how guilt and self-blame play a role in hindering recovery, and to explore the perceived challenges to recovery among persons with BED. Five “changes in thinking” emerged from qualitative analysis of Grace on the Moon message board postings, many of which are supported in the literature regarding eating disorder recovery. These changes include changes in the way participants think about themselves, the way they think about food, the way they cope with pain and difficulty, and the way they view their experiences and their perception of their own disorder. Further analysis of the postings suggested that guilt and self-blame hinder recovery by promoting a cycle of binging which leads to guilt and self-blame, which leads to restricting food intake, which creates a feedback loop and leads to more binge eating. The data ultimately identified several experiences that resulted from seeking recovery that resulted in or hindered recovery. Validation was one of these experiences which appeared to result in recovery by putting participants in a position in which they were less inclined to engage in disordered eating behaviors. Conversely, weight loss or attempts at weight loss appeared to hinder recovery by ultimately promoting more disordered eating behaviors.

Texto completo da fonte
Resumo:
Binge Eating Disorder (BED) is characterized by recurrent episodes of binge eating without the use of compensatory behaviors. Functional accounts of BED propose that negative affect is an antecedent to binge eating because binge eating serves to alleviate negative affect. However, previous studies investigating the association between negative affect and binge eating have yielded inconsistent findings, perhaps due to individual vulnerability factors that moderate the effects of negative affect on binge eating behavior. As one candidate, the current study investigated emotion regulation strategies that may be implicated in the maintenance of binge eating in BED, particularly under conditions of negative affect: brooding rumination, distress tolerance, and mood-related expectancies for eating. These emotion regulation strategies were: a) compared in 38 women with BED vs. 36 non-eating disordered female controls, b) examined in relation to markers of current binge eating severity among BED women, and c) used as predictors of caloric intake and urge to eat in response to a personally-relevant dysphoric mood induction upon presentation of snack foods in a "taste task." Results revealed that women with BED endorsed higher brooding rumination, more positive expectancies that eating serves to ameliorate negative affect, and lower distress tolerance than controls. Among women with BED, higher brooding rumination was associated with greater binge eating severity, and stronger expectancies that eating reduces negative affect were associated with more frequent binge eating episodes and greater urge to eat in response to depression. Surprisingly, better distress tolerance was associated with more frequent binge eating episodes. Women with BED consumed more calories and reported greater loss of control as well as a greater sense of guilt in response to the taste task relative to control participants. Contrary to hypothesis, there were no direct or indirect effects of any of the three emotion regulation strategies on change in urge to eat or calories consumed on the taste task following sad mood induction in BED women. In controls, better distress tolerance and stronger expectancies that eating alleviates negative affect were associated with decreased caloric intake on the taste task after mood induction. Overall, these findings highlight the importance of considering trans-diagnostic processes in BED as well as the need to identify other theoretically-relevant factors that contribute to the cognitive and behavioral features of BED. Limitations and directions for future studies are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to examine the role self-compassion has on stress and eating behavior. Ninety-one participants completed a series of online surveys that measured student life stress, self-compassion, and eating behaviors. Results suggest that self-compassion did not moderate the relationship between stress and eating behavior. Self-compassion was found as a mediator, indicating that the effect stress has on eating behavior can be explained by self-compassion. Students with low stress tended to have high self-compassion, which was linked with healthier eating habits.

Mindfulness is a meditation practice and personality trait that concerns the extent to which an individual attends to present-moment experience in an open and non-judgemental manner. Mindfulness has been associated with a wealth of benefits for both psychological and physical wellbeing. With respect to eating behaviour, mindfulness has been linked with more favourable eating practices and positive outcomes for weight management, encompassing reduced energy intake, greater intake of fruit and vegetables, lower BMI, and greater success in weight loss efforts. In order to best apply mindfulness to eating and weight management a greater understanding of the mechanisms underlying the relationship between mindfulness and eating would be beneficial. Here, I investigated these mechanisms by focusing on the extent to which mindfulness may allow greater self-regulation of eating behaviour. Across six studies I used a variety of methods to examine processes of self-regulation in relation to mindfulness in the context of eating behaviour. This included investigating the mediating role of executive function in determining food consumption following a mindfulness induction, as well as implementing food cueing paradigms that manipulated the need for self-control to observe effects of dispositional mindfulness on eating behaviour. Finally, I examined the cognitive accessibility of dieting goals and motivational styles of behavioural regulation in relation to mindfulness and how they predicted weight and diet outcomes across time. Overall, the effects of mindfulness on eating behaviour were nuanced and complex. Rather than simply reducing energy intake per se, mindfulness may increase healthy food choices or act as a moderator of effects, and its benefits may be overridden by the motivational state of hunger. I found no evidence for enhanced self-control in the form of executive function or accessibility of dieting goals as being a mechanism underlying the effects of mindfulness. Instead, mindfulness may be predictive of slower responses to food stimuli and specific styles of behavioural regulation which represent more deliberative self-regulation rather than automatic self-control.

To date, most research in the area of college women and eating disorders has only been conducted to determine the prevalence of eating disorders among selected college subgroups. Although such research is limited, particularly for those women that choose to join social sororities, it generally indicates that sorority women represent a subgroup with high instances of eating disorders and often presents a conflicting view of these women's eating patterns and beliefs regarding weight loss and food. The present study was designed to continue the investigation of sorority women and their eating patterns by conducting a longitudinal study, consisting of five assessments over the course of one academic year, to assess whether the sorority women who are engaging in maladaptive eating behaviors and thought processes had these problems before joining a sorority or developed them later on as a member of the sorority. Specifically, this study was designed to answer the following research questions: First, do sorority women and nonsorority women differ in regards to weight, self-objectification, eating beliefs, or eating disorder symptoms at the start of or throughout the study? Additionally, do these initial reported weights, self-objectification scores, eating beliefs, or eating disorder symptoms vary over time for either group? Finally, is sorority membership a factor in any of these changes? Participants completed self-report measures of weight, eating beliefs (EBQ), eating disorder symptoms (EDDS), and self-objectification (TSOQ). The effects of time were analyzed for sorority members and non-sorority members using a 2 (sorority membership: sorority vs. non-sorority) x 5 (time: August vs. September vs. November vs. February vs. April) repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) approach for the all of the dependent variables. Additionally, the interactions of sorority membership were analyzed. Results indicated there were no significant differences for self-objectification or the eating beliefs subscales of stereotypes, superstitions, or science. However, significant findings were shown for weight, the salves eating belief subscale, and reported eating disorder symptoms across time. Results are discussed in regards to the overall lack of significant differences between the two groups.

Eating disorders are debilitating psychological illnesses for which sufferers often face stigmatisation. This stigma has consequences for wellbeing, treatment outcomes, and help-seeking. Men with eating disorders may be particularly vulnerable to stigmatisation. Relatively understudied, there is growing recognition that the “male experience” of eating disorders is not confined to thinness-oriented eating problems, including anorexia nervosa, but also muscularity-oriented eating problems, namely, muscle dysmorphia. This thesis constitutes four peer-reviewed and published studies examining stigma toward males with eating disorders and eating disorders stigma more broadly. Two additional manuscripts, also published, provide context for the aforementioned studies, and are provided in this thesis. The core research of four studies examined a) stigmatising attitudes and beliefs about men and women with anorexia nervosa and muscle dysmorphia, b) the prevalence and adverse associations of stigmatisation among men and women with eating disorders, c) the contribution of self-stigma of seeking treatment to rates of eating disorder diagnosis among male and female sufferers, and d) stigma resistance among men and women with eating disorders. Results showed that women with anorexia nervosa may be particularly susceptible to stigmatisation from males, that stigmatisation of males with anorexia nervosa and muscle dysmorphia may be strongly tied to perceptions of masculinity, that more frequent stigma among eating disorder sufferers is associated with a more severe eating disorder and longer duration of illness, that the key sex difference in stigmatisation as reported by eating disorder sufferers is that males report more frequently being stigmatised as “less of a man”, that the self-stigma of seeking psychological help is a stronger predictor of an eating disorder sufferer being undiagnosed if the sufferer is male compared to female, and that stigma resistance may offer some protection against the internalization of mental illness and eating disorders stigma. Taken together, these findings have considerably broadened our understanding of eating disorders stigma, particularly toward males. The findings should be used inform the development of early intervention and destigmatisation initiatives aimed at eating disorders, and offer promising directions for future research on eating disorders stigma.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this qualitative study the significance of the everyday eating rituals of female farm workers of color in the Western Cape is explored. Eating and its associated activities are understood as embodied, social practices that are meaningful and meaning-making. It aims to address the gap left by mainstream psychology's scant attention to the subject matter. Furthermore, it is an endeavor to steer away from the dualistic path trailed by mainstream psychology's following of traditional western philosophical thought. Assuming a social constructionist approach, six transcribed interviews were analyzed using the grounded theory method. Three main themes are extracted from these texts: knowing, agency and community. The ritual of preparing food involves embodied knowing, which enhances the women's impressions of their capacities as transformative agents. This sense of agency is performed through other acts of eating within relational contexts. The link between eating rituals and notions of community is thus introduced, which opens the space to revisit the positions of women in the sites of the family and society.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie kwalitatiewe studie word die sinvolheid van die alledaagse eetritLiele van vroue-plaaswerkers van kleur in die Wes-Kaap verken. Eet en gepaardgaande aktiwiteite word beskou as beliggaamde sosiale praktyke wat betekenisvol en betekenisgewend is. Dit poog om hoofstroom sielkunde se gebrekkige hantering van die onderwerp aan te spreek. Ook is dit 'n poging om weg te stuur van die dualistiese trajek wat hoofstroom sielkunde navolg in die handhawing van die westerse filosofiese tradisie. Ses getranskribeerde onderhoude is ontleed vanuit In sosiaal-konstruksionistiese perspektief. Die analise maak gebruik van die "grounded theory" metode. Drie sleuteltemas is ge'identifiseer: om te weet, agentskap en gemeenskap. Die ritueel van kosmaak behels In beliggaamde vorm van weet wat bydra tot die vroue se gevoel van hul kapasiteit as transformatiewe agente. Die gevoel van agentskap word uitgevoer deur ander eethandelinge binne die konteks van verhoudings. Die skakel tussen eetrituele en idees oor gemeenskap word dus aangevoer, wat die ruimte skep om die posisies van vroue binne gesin en samelewing te herbesin.

Gaps in research on reduction of obesity (Chapter 1) can be filled by experiments on effects on weight of changing the frequencies of habits of healthy eating and exercise (Chapter 2). This Thesis shows that changes in weight and customary habits can be tracked reliably. People’s descriptions of meals as healthy were consistent with national guidelines (Chapter 3). Participants agreed on which of such freely worded accounts of eating occasions referred to the same habit (Chapter 4). The frequency of a habit was calculated from recalled date and time of its most recent occasions: these timings were accurately recalled over two days (Chapter 5) although precision decreased after a week (Chapter 6). There was no evidence that records of weights were biased by expectations of weight loss (Chapter 7). Data from small samples indicated weight was reduced over 2-3 weeks by less frequent high-fat meals and calories between meals but not by more frequent vigorous exercise (Chapters 8 and 9). Habit frequency changes sometimes reversed from a variety of causes (Chapter 10). A full-scale experiment is designed to substantiate such findings (Chapter 11). After extension to other localities, such research could be an immediate help in reducing obesity (Chapter 12).

The severe consequences of having an eating disorder can be minimised by early treatment access. However, most individuals experience lengthy delays in accessing help. This review aimed to systematically evaluate the empirical literature relating to the barriers and facilitators that might influence these delays, for individuals with eating psychopathology. Twenty empirical studies were reviewed. Evidence for potential barriers included: 1) logistical difficulties, 2) ethnicity and acculturation, 3) poor mental health literacy, 4) self-reliance, and 5) social and interpersonal fears. Potential facilitators included: 1) problem recognition, 2) interventions to enhance recognition, 3) impairment of functioning and health, and 4) severity of eating disordered symptoms. More complex studies are required to establish the directional influence of these factors on help seeking. A shift in focus from resactive facilitators, such as symptom severity, towards the factors that might operate earlier on in the help seeking process, is more likely to generate ideas and interventions to achieve earlier treatment access.

This thesis comprises two research papers. The first is a literature review which examines the efficacy of group CBT in the treatment of bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). Group CBT was compared to waiting list control, individual CBT, self-help CBT, other modes of therapy and CBT with an additional component. The review discusses the benefits of using group CBT in the treatment of BN and BED as well as areas for future research. The second is an empirical study which explores the experience of binge eating and loss of control for individuals with BN. Five women with BN were interviewed. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to analyse the data and five themes emerged. The participants described times when they are not binge eating (‘The meaning of food: The need for controlled eating’); interpretations of what leads to a binge (‘Embodied and contextual accounts of bingeing’); the difficulties of stopping a binge (‘During the binge: the point of no return’); loss of control as a conscious and subconscious process (‘Shifting in and out of a dissociative state’) and ‘The negative consequences of bingeing’. The findings are discussed in terms of current literature, future research recommendations and clinical implications.

Studies suggest that the experience of anxiety or exposure to stressful events may contribute to the 'disinhibition' of dietary restraint (diet breaking) and promote symptoms of binge eating and bulimia. Mechanisms by which such factors lead to overeating are not clearly understood, and competing theoretical explanations have not been sufficiently tested using reliable and robust methodological approaches within the laboratory. The current research adopted a psychophysiological approach to the measurement of stress-eating and information processing, using an aggregation of experimental paradigms taken from cardiovascular/stress and dietary restraint literatures, to investigate the effects of self-directed ego threat stress on female restrained eaters, with and without bulimic symptoms. The first main aim was to test two competing theoretical explanations of overeating [bingeing] in response to stress - the limited capacity versus the 'escape' theory. Taken together, the results obtained from three experiments revealed only limited support for the limited capacity model. Some support was obtained for the 'escape' theory. These results were also discussed in relation to restraint theory, and the continuum and new generation cognitive models of BN. The second main aim was to ascertain the existence of information processing and memory biases for scheme-relevant cues unrelated to eating [self-directed ego threat] in the two target populations. Results from these analyses provided further support for restraint theory, the 'escape'theory of bingeing, and the continuum and new generation cognitive models of BN. Two more minor aims of the current research were a) to assess arousal responses in response to post-stress food ingestion in the two target populations, b) to assess whether temporal/habituation effects occurred in respect of information processing of ego-threat stimuli.

For the purposes of this study, eating disturbances were placed on a continuum ranging from disordered to normal, and family factors were examined via this framework. Research on anorectics and bulimics indicates that a variety of family variables contribute to the etiology of eating disorders. Research suggests the presence of a subgroup of persons who experience some disturbance in their relationships with food but not to the severity observed among eating disordered individuals. This study examined the relationship between family factors and eating disturbances.

Previous research done in the area of eating disorders suggests many different variables, such as cognitive, biological, and social, that are thought to influence eating disorder development and maintenance. The present study attempts to combine cognitive and sociocultural research findings, memory recall and critical body comments, in an effort to see how, if at all, these two variables affect eating disorder symptomology. Participants for this study were 120 female students that were recruited via Study Board. Participants completed the demographics form, the Eating Disorder Inventory-3 RF, and the Social Hassles Questionnaire. The participants then watched an E-prime presentation of different positive, negative, and neutral appearance and non-appearance related words. After this presentation, participants completed a word recall task in which they wrote down as many of the words from the presentation as they could remember. Results were consistent with previous research that has found a relationship between remembering a critical comment and subsequent negative emotions/ experiences and also research that has found a negative relationship between high body dissatisfaction and number of positive words recalled. Results also showed that eating disorder symptomology predicts less recall of positive words. Results from the present study shed light on the need for better treatment for those suffering from eating disorders or any amount of eating pathology, especially treatments aimed at increasing positive ways of thinking.

This study examined the extent to which biological vulnerability process variables and experiential vulnerability process variables predicted specific eating disorder (ED) symptoms. One-hundred and thirty one participants completed the following questionnaires via an online survey system, Qualtrics: the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire-6, the BIS/BAS scale, the PANAS, the RPI, the EOSS, and a demographic questionnaire. Factor analysis was used to reduce the ED symptom scores to sample-specific ED factors, and multiple regression analyses were used to test the extent to which process variables predicted sample-specific ED factors. Noteworthy was that both experiential vulnerability process variables provided individual contributions to the models, with EOSS component scores significantly predicting all sample-specific ED factors and RPI total significantly predicting the Fear Regarding Body and Food factor and the Restraint factor. Although BIS and PA emerged as significant predictors for some of the sample-specific ED factors, biological vulnerability processes were less likely to be significant predictors. Exploratory analyses examined how process variables contributed to the definition of ED symptom groups. Findings, implications, methodological issues, and recommendations for future research are discussed.

This study provides preliminary data from a parent-report measure for assessing eating disorder symptoms in preadolescents. The Parent Eating Behaviors and Body Image Test (PEBBIT) is based on the Eating Behaviors and Body Image Test (EBBIT; Candy & Fee, 1998), a self-report measure for preadolescent girls. Eighty-three females in grades 4 through 6 were contacted from elementary schools, but only 10 participated. Girls individual responses on the EBBIT were compared to parental responses on the PEBBIT. Parents were able to accurately identify eating disorder behaviors in their children only 65.3% of the time when analyzing the individual responses found on the Binge Eating Behaviors subscale and only 58.6% of the time on the Body Image Disturbance Restrictive Eating subscale. Preliminary analyses suggest that a) clinicians and clinical researchers should supplement preadolescent girls self-report with parent report measures, and b) more detailed study of the PEBBITs psychometric properties is warranted.

Emotional eating is defined as the tendency to increase food consumption in order to modify negative emotional states. Although it is counter to the more typical response of decreasing food intake in the face of distress, emotional eating is observed in both eating disordered and healthy populations and is associated with overweight and obesity. Theories on emotional eating attribute its cause to inadequate emotion regulation, specifically an inability to draw awareness to and accept distress. Mindfulness, or the ability to pay attention to one's internal and external experiences, is negatively associated with both emotional eating and psychological distress. Only one study to date (Pidgeon et al., 2013), however, has examined the moderating role of trait mindfulness in the relationship between psychological distress and emotional eating. Pidgeon and colleagues utilized a mainly undergraduate sample, and a unidimensional measure of mindfulness, which failed to capture the complexity of the construct. The present study replicated and extended the findings of Pidgeon and colleagues with the Five Factor Mindfulness Questionnaire to probe the effects of specific facets of mindfulness on the relationship between internalizing distress and emotional eating in a diverse community sample (N = 248). Results indicated that depression significantly interacted with nonjudging of inner experience. Analysis of the interaction revealed that there were significant differences between low, average, and high levels of nonjudging only at low levels of depression. At low levels of depression, those who were high in nonjudging endorsed less emotional eating than those who were average or low in nonjudging. Anxiety did not significantly interact with any of the five mindfulness facets to predict emotional eating. These findings further delineate the moderating role of specific aspects of trait mindfulness in the association between depressive symptoms and emotional eating and may inform more targeted intervention and prevention efforts.

Research indicates that eating disorders and anxiety disorders frequently co-occur. The prevalence of anxiety disorders amongst anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa samples has been reported in a number of investigations. Despite the significant number of research papers investigating the comorbidity between eating disorders and anxiety disorders, many are plagued by methodological problems, limiting the usefulness of findings. Furthermore, there is a significant lack of research examining the prevalence of eating disorders among anxiety patients, and as a result, the frequency of eating disorder pathology among patients presenting to specialty anxiety clinics is unclear. The current research investigated the prevalence of comorbid eating and anxiety disorders amongst 152 women presenting for either eating disorder treatment or anxiety disorder treatment. The prevalence of anxiety disorders was determined from a sample of 100 women presenting for inpatient and outpatient eating disorder treatment. The prevalence of eating disorders was determined from a sample of 52 women presenting for outpatient treatment of an anxiety disorder. The current study found that 65% of women with eating disorders also met criteria for at least one comorbid anxiety disorder. Furthermore, 69% reported the onset of the anxiety disorder to precede the onset of the eating disorder. Of the anxiety disorders diagnosed, Social Phobia was most frequently diagnosed (42%) followed by PTSD (26%), GAD (23%), OCD (5%), Panic/Ag (3%) and Specific Phobia (2%). We also found that 13.5% of women presenting for anxiety treatment also met criteria for a comorbid eating disorder. The results of this study suggest that the prevalence of eating and anxiety disorder comorbidity is high. It is hoped that the present research will have significant etiological and therapeutic implications and further the understanding of the development and maintenance of eating disorder pathology.

Anorexia and bulimia are serious mental health problems. Guidelines (2004) from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) highlight how disabling these eating disorders can be as they have an impact on mood, self-esteem, social relationships and physical health. Both disorders are associated with a higher risk of developing coronary heart disease (Lissner et al., 1991) and the mortality rate for anorexia is estimated to be three times higher than other psychiatric problems (Nieslen, 2001). This may partly explain why eating disorders are subject to extensive research. This thesis focuses on areas that have attracted less attention. Chapter one examines literature on the impact of fathers on daughters’ disordered eating patterns. Studies suggested that paternal personality traits and daughters’ perception of this relationship affect eating behaviours. It remains unclear whether paternal variables act as specific risk factors or are risk factors for the development of psychopathology more generally. Longitudinal research is needed to establish this. Chapter two explores how changes in emotional processes and emotions affect the trajectory of anorexia and bulimia. This study involved interviewing eight therapists about their experiences and creating a grounded theory that illustrated the trajectory of both disorders from an emotion-focused perspective. According to therapists, the eating disorder appeared to function as an emotional regulation strategy that helped clients suppress or avoid emotions. Clinicians reported that emotional processes and clients’ relationship to their emotions changed during therapy. Individuals appeared to find alternative ways of managing emotions and these changes seemed to support the journey of recovering. Chapter three offers a reflective account on pertinent issues which arose while conducting the research study. This paper includes reflections on methodological considerations, ethical issues and the impact of this study on my practice as a trainee clinical psychologist.

Previous research has shown that individuals with disordered eating patterns who come from a family that is high in Expressed Emotion tend to have more disordered eating behaviors and over a longer period of time. There is less research on how a person’s perception of their family’s expressed emotion, specifically the criticism directed at them by a parental figure, affects their disordered eating patterns. The purpose of this research was to examine whether there is a relationship between perceived criticism and disordered eating patterns, as well as whether this relationship is influenced by self-criticism. One hundred and five undergraduate college students participated in an online survey that measured perceived criticism, their self-criticism, and their disordered eating behaviors and thoughts. The results suggest that levels of perceived criticism and disordered eating behaviors and thoughts were not related to each other. However, an individual’s perception of parental self-criticism was related to their level of self-criticism. Their level of self-criticism in turn was related to their disordered eating behaviors and thoughts, demonstrating an indirect relationship between perceived criticism and disordered eating patterns. These findings offer some potential areas of consideration for clinicians treating clients with disordered eating behaviors.
