“…Intuitive eating and/or mindful eating could be another way to go. 26 Intuitive eating is often defined as eating according to internal, physiological cues of hunger and satiety rather than according to external or emotional cues. 27 However, this definition is probably not precise enough.…”

Summary The aim of this research is to examine the relation between weight and cognitive restraint (CR), which is the intention to control food intake in order to maintain or lose weight, in a general French population sample. Is CR more prevalent in individuals with obesity than overweight, underweight or normal‐weight subjects in this cross‐sectional study? Are people affected by obesity non‐restrained eaters? A total of 507 French people (80.2% women and 19.8% men), aged 18‐78 years, responded to an online questionnaire. It appears that the most used questionnaire measuring CR has content validity problems as it seems to measure effective control and not the intention. Therefore, a numeric scale was used to answer the questions. Even if it is not possible in this study to test a causal link with latent variable modelling, our results seem to show that people with obesity more frequently intend to eat less or to eat healthier and/or to eat less sugar and fat than other people in order to control their weight. However, people affected by obesity do not succeed in so doing. These results raise the question of treatments advocating the increase of self‐control. Finally, it would be necessary to obtain a real, scientific consensus on what CR is and on how to measure it in order to study the most effective treatments for people with overweight or obesity.

“…Emotional eating [21] focuses on eating in response to negative emotions as an atypical response to distress, with the typical response being refraining from eating [22]. These two dimensions have been found when different questionnaires related to eating behaviors have been factor-analyzed, where the avoidant restrictive pattern is clearly differentiated from the more emotional binge-purge pattern [23,24].…”

“…Considering (a) the overlap between OrNe and restrained eating, (b) the novelty of HeOr as a different dimension of orthorexia, and (c) previous attempts to introduce new eating styles that are, to a large degree, the same as previously considered ones (e.g., [23,25] for the case of intuitive eating; [24] for food-addiction), we believe that further evidence is needed about the relationship between orthorexia and restrained and emotional eating. The main aim of the present study was to clarify whether orthorexia represents a new eating style or should be considered part of a previously defined eating style, mainly restrained eating.…”

Orthorexia nervosa and healthy orthorexia as new eating styles

It was recently proposed that healthy orthorexia (HeOr) and orthorexia nervosa (OrNe) should be differentiated. The aim of the present study was to analyze whether the two dimensions of orthorexia can be considered new eating styles or basically equivalent to restrained eating behavior. Two samples of university students (sample 1, n = 460; sample 2, n = 509) completed the Teruel Orthorexia Scale (TOS), the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ), and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). Factor analysis with the TOS and DEBQ items together revealed an adequate fit for the preexisting five-factor solution (TOS: OrNe and HeOr; DEBQ: Restrained Eating, Emotional Eating, and External Eating). This result points out that these factors are conceptually distinguishable. Moreover, we tested whether the different eating styles presented different patterns of correlations with gender, body mass index (BMI), and age, and whether OrNe and HeOr predicted Positive and Negative Affect after controlling for Restrained, Emotional, and External Eating. Whereas Restrained and Emotional Eating were higher for women and increased with BMI in both samples, HeOr and OrNe presented much lower associations with these variables. OrNe was positively related to Negative Affect and negatively to Positive Affect, whereas HeOr was positively related to Positive Affect. Again, this result supports the assumption that OrNe is a new variant of disordered eating, whereas HeOr could possibly be seen as a protective behavior.

“…In accordance with this perspective, a previous study has found that those who are addicted to MPs are reluctant to spend cognitive resources and are prone to adopt intuitive thinking in daily lives [ 27 , 28 ]. In the absence of cognitive control and analytical thinking, individuals may have more difficulties in restraining the tendencies of seeking novelty, rewarding incentives, and excitement through risk-taking behavior [ 29 , 30 , 31 ]. Taken together, we assume that MP addiction would be related to an increase in risk-taking behavior in adolescents.…”

Objectives: The mobile phone (MP) is an indispensable digital device in adolescents’ daily lives in the contemporary era, but being addicted to MP can lead to more risk-taking behavior. However, little is known about the mediating and moderating mechanisms underlying this relation. To address the gaps in the literature, the present study examined the idea that MP addiction is associated with reduced self-control, which further associates with increased risk-taking behavior. In addition, this study also investigated the moderation effect of adolescent sex in the association between MP addiction and self-control. Methods: A three-wave longitudinal study, each wave spanning six months apart, was conducted in a sample of Chinese adolescents (final N = 333, 57.4% girls). Results: Results of the moderated mediation model suggest that after controlling for demographic variables and baseline levels of self-control and risk-taking behavior, MP addiction at T1 positively predicted increased risk-taking behavior at T3 through reduced self-control at T2 for girls but not for boys. Conclusions: Theoretically, these findings contribute to the understanding about the working processes in the association between MP addiction and risk-taking behavior in adolescents. Practically, the results implied that boosting self-control appeared as a promising way to reduce girls’ risk-taking behavior, particularly for those who are addicted to MPs.
