“…Finally, our measure of binge eating correlates with other internalizing phenotypes. Within the MSTUR sample, the MEBS Binge Eating subscale exhibits moderate correlations with measures of depression ( r ’s = .39–.50) and anxiety ( r ’s = .35–.47) that are similar to correlations observed for other binge eating measures (Mitchell & Mazzeo, 2004; Spoor et al, 2006). …”

Dietary restraint is a prospective risk factor for the development of binge eating and bulimia nervosa. Although many women engage in dietary restraint, relatively few develop binge eating. Dietary restraint may only increase susceptibility for binge eating in individuals who are at genetic risk. Specifically, dietary restraint may be a behavioral "exposure" factor that activates genetic predispositions for binge eating. We investigated this possibility in 1,678 young adolescent and adult same-sex female twins from the Minnesota Twin Family Study and the Michigan State University Twin Registry. Twin moderation models were used to examine whether levels of dietary restraint moderate genetic and environmental influences on binge eating. Results indicated that genetic and non-shared environmental factors for binge eating increased at higher levels of dietary restraint. Importantly, these effects were present after controlling for age, body mass index, and genetic and environmental overlap among dietary restraint and binge eating. Results suggest that dietary restraint may be most important for individuals at genetic risk for binge eating, and the combination of these factors could enhance individual differences in risk for binge eating. Keywords binge eating; dietary restraint; gene-environment interactions; twinsEating disorders are debilitating conditions that affect 0.5-3% of adolescent and adult women (American Psychiatric Association (APA), 2000). One symptom of eating disorders that cuts across virtually all eating disorder diagnostic categories is binge eating. Binge eating is defined as consuming an amount of food over a discrete period larger than what most individuals would eat and experiencing a sense of loss of control while bingeing (APA, 2000). Importantly, regular binge eating is present in adolescent and adult community populations (prevalence rates: 1.8-5%) (Hay, 2003;Hudson, Hiripi, Pope, & Kessler, 2007;Jones, Bennett, Olmsted, Lawson, & Rodin, 2001) and is associated with reduced quality of life and greater psychopathology (Hay, 2003). Thus, it is critical to understand the etiology of binge eating.Corresponding Author: Kelly L.

“…Most studies reported cross‐sectional findings ( n = 17; 44.7%) (Azarbad et al, ; Cachelin et al, ; Fitzgibbon et al, ; Gayle et al, ; Harrington et al, ; Harrington et al, ; Higgins et al, ; Hrabosky & Grilo, ; Jarosz et al, ; Kelly, Cotter, & Mazzeo, ; Lydecker et al, ; Lydecker & Grilo, ; Mazzeo et al, ; Mitchell & Mazzeo, ; Shuttlesworth & Zotter, ; Striegel‐Moore et al, ; Udo et al, ). Additional studies included secondary data analyses of cross‐sectional data ( n = 3; 7.8%) (Adamus‐Leach et al, ; Kelly et al, ; Wilson et al, ), secondary data analyses of population‐based longitudinal studies ( n = 4; 10.5%) (Marcus et al, ; Munn‐Chernoff et al, ; Smith et al, ; Striegel‐Moore et al, ); secondary analyses of large, representative data sets of Black respondents ( n = 4; 10.5%) (Assari, ; Blostein et al, ; Marques et al, ; Taylor et al, ), and secondary analyses of RCT's ( n = 3; 7.8%) (Lydecker et al, ; Mama et al, ; Thompson‐Brenner et al, ).…”

Objective: Although several effective behavioral treatments for binge-eating disorder (BED) exist, there are racial disparities in treatment access, with African-Americans and/or Black individuals having some of the lowest rates of access to care. Little is known about the experience and treatment of binge eating (BE) and BED among Black women.Method: This systematic review, conducted according to PRISMA guidelines, synthesizes information related to BE and BED in Black women.Results: A total of N = 38 studies met our eligibility criteria. We did not identify any systematic risk of bias across studies. The majority of included studies used crosssectional survey methodology, and relied on interview (EDE) and self-report measures (particularly the Binge Eating Scale, BES) for the assessment of BE. Outcomes were inconsistently measured across trials, and there are limited data on the results of evidence-based treatments for BE/BED in Black women.Discussion: Although Black women have similar or higher rates of BE than White women, most research on BE and BED has focused on White women, with Black individuals underrepresented in clinical trials. Future research should examine evidence-based treatments to prevent and treat BED in this population.Objetivo: Aunque existen varios tratamientos conductuales que son efectivos para el Trastorno de Atracones (BED, por sus siglas en inglés), existen disparidades raciales en el acceso a tratamiento, con individuos Afroamericanos y/o personas de color teniendo algunas de las tasas más bajas de acceso al cuidado de la salud. Se sabe muy poco acerca de la experiencia y tratamiento del comer en atracones (BE, por sus siglas en inglés) y BED entre mujeres afroamericanas y/o de color.Método: Esta revisión sistemática, realizada bajo lineamientos de las guías PRISMA, sintetiza información relacionada con BE y BED en mujeres afroamericanas y/o de color.Resultados: Un total de N = 38 estudios cumplieron con nuestros criterios de elegibilidad. No identificamos ningún riesgo sistemático de sesgo entre los estudios.La mayoría de los estudios incluidos utilizaron una metodología de encuesta transversal y se basaron en la entrevista (EDE) y las medidas de autoinforme (en particular, la Binge Eating Scale, BES) para la evaluación de BE. Los resultados se midieron de

“…Given the prevalence of eating-disordered attitudes and behaviors in college women (e.g., see Mitchell and Mazzeo, 1 Hawkins and Clement, 2 and Mintz and Betz 3 ), there is a need for interventions that reduce risk factors for eating disorders such as body dissatisfaction, thin-ideal internalization, and dieting. Many interventions increase knowledge about disordered eating, but attitudes and behaviors appear more resistant to change.…”
