Differences in daily stress, mood, coping, and eating behavior in binge eating and nonbinge eating college women
Article Abstract:
There are substantial differences in daily stress, mood, coping and eating behaviour between binge eaters and non-binge eaters, according to research among participants including female undergraduates from eight introductory psychology courses. The binge eaters stated that they experienced twice as many stressful events daily than did the control group of non-binge eaters. They also reported that the effect of these events was greater than did the control group. The binge eaters reported using more coping strategies than the control group, but there were found to be no significant differences in the number of episodes of eating anything at all during the day.
