“…However, a consistent finding has been that associations between dietary restraint and body weight vary between obese and normal weight populations. In normal weight groups, the association is often positive, 38,39,42,43 whereas within obese populations higher restraint is usually associated with lower weight. [42][43][44][45] It may be that in normal weight populations restraint is acting as a marker for overeating tendencies, whereas in obese populations the overeating tendency is nearly ubiquitous, and in this group restraint will distinguish between those whose tendency to overeat is tempered by restraint and those who do not attempt to control their eating.…”

Dietary restraint and self-regulation in eating behavior

Self-control is generally viewed as highly desirable. In the eating behavior domain, however, the dominance of restraint theory has made the proposition that individuals should attempt to control their eating more controversial. This review discusses evidence from the dietary restraint literature and from studies of self-regulation processes to examine how far self-imposed control around food can be seen as beneficial for effective weight management. Epidemiological and field study evidence provides little support for the proposition that restrained eating causes disinhibited eating patterns. Restraint is often initiated as a response to weight gain, and the co-occurrence of disinhibited and restrained eating patterns on an individual level might better be explained by restraint acting as a marker for overeating tendencies. A sustained effort to monitor and control food intake characterizes successful long-term weight maintenance, suggesting that self-regulation in the eating domain is essential for those with a tendency to gain weight. Evidence from the literature on cognitive self-regulation suggests that there may be potential for people to learn to self-regulate better, both through training and controlled exposure techniques. Integration of the disparate theories of self-regulation is needed to identify the best ways of promoting self-regulation in order to support effective weight control, both in clinical and community settings.

Objectives: To describe patterns of dietary behaviours specific to low quality snacking, fruit and vegetable, and fast food consumption during the transition from childhood to adolescence and to examine how these behaviours are associated with tendencies towards dietary restraint and the occurrence of overweight and obesity in midadolescence. Design: A 5-year follow-up of self-reported eating. Hierarchical linear modelling was utilised to explore the relationship between dietary changes and body mass index (BMI) and dietary restraint while controlling for physical activity and smoking. Setting: The sample was derived from students participating in the Quebec Heart Health Demonstration Project, and represents rural, suburban and inner city youths. Subjects: A sample of 561 girls and 627 boys in the fourth, sixth, seventh and ninth grades. Results: Overall the sample was characterised by a decrease in fruit and vegetable consumption and increase in low quality snacking, and a decrease in fast food consumption over the 5-year follow-up. Dietary restraint and BMI were found to be associated with dietary behaviour. Lower than average dietary restraint was associated with a lower frequency of fast food consumption and greater increase in low quality snacking over the 5-year period. Higher than average dietary restraint was associated with lesser frequency of low quality snacking at baseline. Having a BMI in the obese range was associated with more frequent fast food consumption in the fourth grade and a more rapid drop in fast food consumption across the 5-year period. Conclusions: Dietary behaviours are associated with the psychological construct dietary restraint and with weight status in this population of adolescents.

“…In addition, earlier research suggests that the relationship between restraint eating behaviors depends on sample characteristics. Several studies found a positive cross-sectional association between restrained eating and BMI, 19,20 whereas others found no significant relationships 6,21 or inverse relationships. 22,23 In this investigation, we examine the relationship between restrained eating and BMI using participants with a range of BMI, as well as clinical and non-clinical samples.…”

Psychometric analysis of the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire-R21: results from a large diverse sample of obese and non-obese participants

Background:The 21-item Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ-R21) is a scale that measures three domains of eating behavior: cognitive restraint (CR), uncontrolled eating (UE) and emotional eating (EE). Objectives: To assess the factor structure and reliability of TFEQ-R21 (and if necessary, refine the structure) in diverse populations of obese and non-obese individuals. Design: Data were obtained from obese adults in a United States/Canadian clinical trial (n ¼ 1741), and overweight, obese and normal weight adults in a US web-based survey (n ¼ 1275). Confirmatory factor analyses were employed to investigate the structure of TFEQ-R21 using baseline data from the clinical trial. The model was refined to obtain adequate fit and internal consistency. The refined model was then tested using the web-based data. Relationships between TFEQ domains and body mass index (BMI) were examined in both populations. Results: Clinical data indicated that TFEQ-R21 needed refinement. Three items were removed from the CR domain, producing the revised version TFEQ-R18V2 (Comparative Fit Index (CFI) ¼ 0.91). Testing TFEQ-R18V2 in the web-based sample supported the revised structure (CFI ¼ 0.96; Cronbach's coefficient a of 0.78-0.94). Associations with BMI were small. In the clinical study, the CR domain showed a significant and negative association with BMI. On the basis of the web-based survey, it was shown that the relationship between BMI and CR is population-dependent (obese versus non-obese, healthy versus diabetics). Conclusions: In two independent datasets, the TFEQ-R18V2 showed robust factor structure and good reliability. It may provide a useful tool for characterizing UE, CR and EE.
