“…The mean internal consistency across the 15 cultures of scores on the AI in college samples was between .72 and .84 (Grouzet et al, 2005). The modified version of the AI was used in many studies and demonstrated consistent internal reliability and associations with health-related outcomes in the expected direction (Guertin et al, 2017a, 2017b, 2018). Individuals’ personal aspiration strivings are stable over a period of 1 year (Sheldon et al, 2004).…”

“…The reported internal consistencies of the Healthy and Unhealthy Eating subscales scores were .81 and .82 in college samples, respectively. Items that represent healthy eating on the HUEBS have been used to measure changes in eating behaviors over a period of 6 months (Guertin et al, 2017b). αs in the current sample for the Healthy and Unhealthy Eating subscales were .80 and .84, respectively.…”

In this study, we examined the effects of body-focused daily self-compassion and self-esteem expressive writing activities on women’s valuation of weight management goals, body appreciation, bulimic symptoms, and healthy and unhealthy eating behaviors. One-hundred twenty-six women, recruited from the community and a university participant pool ( Mage = 29.3, SD = 13.6), were randomly allocated to one of the three writing conditions: body-focused self-compassion, body-focused self-esteem, or control. Women reflected on a moment within the past 24 hours that made them feel self-conscious about their bodies, eating, or exercise habits (self-compassion and self-esteem conditions) or on a particular situation or feeling that occurred in the past 24 hours (control condition) for 4–7 days. At post-treatment (24 hours after the intervention), women in the self-compassion group demonstrated decreased bulimic symptoms, while women in the self-esteem and control conditions did not. Furthermore, clinically significant changes in bulimic symptoms were associated with being in the self-compassion condition but not in the self-esteem or control conditions. Results suggest that body-focused writing interventions may be more effective in temporarily reducing eating disorder symptoms in women if they focus on harnessing self-compassion.

“…Within the SDT framework, the Regulation of Eating Behavior Scale (REBS; Pelletier et al, 2004) is a valid multidimensional and psychometrically sound instrument developed to specifically explore the motivational dynamics underlying eating behavior regulation. The REBS is an instrument that has been widely used to evaluate the different behavioral regulatory styles proposed by SDT in the eating domain (e.g., Bégin, Fecteau, Bédard, Senécal, & Ratté, 2018;Guertin, Pelletier, & Pope, 2020;Guertin, Pelletier, É mond, & Lalande, 2017;Hamilton, Hoffman, Arsiwalla, Volpe, & Gropper, 2018;Pelletier et al, 2016).…”

The aim of present study was two-fold: i) to translate and adapt the Regulation of Eating Behavior Scale to Portuguese (REBSp), and ii) to analyze its psychometrics properties (factorial validity with gender invariance analyses, reliability and construct validity). The study sample was composed by 471 Portuguese participants (68.4% females) with a mean age of 30.5 years (SD = 11.2). Structural equation modeling was used to verify the psychometric properties of the scale using SPSS v. 23.0 and AMOS 24.0 software. The analysis showed that the Portuguese 24-item scale presented a good fit, achieving good reliability and convergent validity. Some issues arose with discriminant validity within autonomous and controlled regulations, discussed in light of the simplex pattern expected by self-determination theory literature. Additionally, the scale presented concurrent validity and evidence of gender measurement invariance. Latent mean analysis between genders showed that women presented higher means for intrinsic motivation and integrated regulation when compared to men. In conclusion, analyses suggest that the 24-item Portuguese version of REBS can be used safely to assess the eating regulation in both genders.

“…Participants' motivation for PA was assessed with a previously used (Guertin, et al, 2017) 6-item scale adapted from Sheldon and Elliot (1999) that asked participants to indicate the extent to which each statement corresponded to the reasons they participated in PA. 2 The items represented intrinsic motivation (purely for the interest and enjoyment in doing physical activity), integrated regulation (interesting or not, I felt that it expresses my true values), identified regulation (because it's important to me to improve my fitness and health), introjected regulation (because I made myself do it to avoid shame or guilt), external regulation (because something about my external situation forced me to do physical activity), and amotivation (I have no idea why I do physical activity). Participants responded to these six items using a 7-point Likert scale that ranged from 1 (does not correspond at all) to 7 (corresponds exactly).…”

Considerable research guided by the Self Determination Theory has demonstrated that people who are motivated by more self-determined reasons (e.g., enjoyment, core beliefs, or personally meaningful benefits) are more likely to be physical activity. However, far less is known about the role ones' stage of change (readiness for physical activity) plays in this relationship. The purpose of the present study was to (a) determine if the six forms of motivation and indices of physical activity varied across the stages of change, and (b) investigate if composite scores of self-determined and non-self-determined motivation were differentially related to physical activity indices depending on the stage of change of the individual. In total, 700 adults aged 18-65 (M age = 32.59; SD = 12.82) completed an online survey consisting of demographics, and assessments of stages of change, motivation, and physical activity. Results demonstrated that participants at more advanced stages of change reported significantly higher self-determined motives, moderate activity, vigorous activity, and frequency of physical activity, and lower amotivation, with introjected regulation peaking at the implementation phase. Moderation analyses indicated that stages of change moderated the relationship between self-determined motives and moderate to vigorous physical activity, as well as physical activity frequency, but did not moderate the relationship between non-self-determined motives and indices of physical activity. Findings suggested that participants' self-determined motives play a critical role in physical activity and becomes more important at more advanced stages of change, which is important to consider for program and intervention development.
