“…In this way, the full scale presented here meets the established criteria for the diagnosis of substance addictions, which supports its use [7][8][9]32]. This is similar to what was found in a study where a factorial analysis of a Spanish translation of the YFAS was performed in a Mexican sample [40]. Five factors were found, which include those encountered in this study and with the YFAS itself [19], where four factors were found.…”

It has been proposed that the consumption of foods high in sugar or fat may cause addictive behavior. The aim of this study was to adapt and validate a soft drink addiction scale that can be used in future studies and to strengthen the proposal of food addiction with the hypothesis that people with high consumption of soft drinks have similar characteristics to people who consume abuse drugs. A non-probabilistic convenience sample of 394 Mexican participants answered a soft drinks’ consumption frequency questionnaire, an addiction scale, and a self-efficacy scale for soft drinks’ consumption. Additionally, anthropometric measurements were taken. The addiction scale showed three factors with an adequate reliability (Cronbach’s alpha coefficient = 0.903), as well as construct validity and criterion validity with the self-efficacy scale and total body fat percentage on soft drinks, mainly those with substantial caloric content. Additionally, the results showed a predictive value for soft drink consumption, strengthening its validity. This scale is useful to identify and evaluate the characteristic patterns of a substance addiction. The total reliability indicates that the items as a whole are correlated with each other and that the scale is stable to be used over time. This is the first study that evaluates the addictive characteristics of soft drink consumption through a scale, and it represents an advance in the exploration of the behavioral sciences field and an important tool for the creation of public health policies, mainly in countries with a high consumption of these beverages.

“…Since the development of the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) psychometric scale to measure FA, several studies have been conducted on this theme worldwide (Davis, 2017; Praxedes et al, 2022; Pursey et al, 2014). The scale has been translated and validated into Brazilian Portuguese (Nunes‐Neto et al, 2018) and Spanish (Granero et al, 2014; Granero et al, 2018), including with semantic adaptations for the Chilean (Marín, 2014) and Mexican populations (Valdés‐Moreno et al, 2016), and some studies using this scale have thus reported on the prevalence of FA in Latin American countries (Falcón et al, 2021; Filgueiras et al, 2019; Lopez‐Lopez et al, 2021; Obregón et al, 2015). However, to date, prevalence of FA in Latin American populations has not been systematically investigated, which is an important gap given the specificities of this group.…”

Objective Food addiction (FA) has been extensively investigated worldwide; however, the prevalence of FA in the Latin American population has yet to be established and past work has largely neglected the specificities of this region, that includes the most significant economic disparities in the world. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of FA measured by the Yale Food Addiction Scale in Latin America. Method The search was performed on MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, LILACS, IBECS, SciELO, PsycArticles, CENTRAL, and the gray literature. FA prevalence data were collected, and random effects meta‐analyses were performed to calculate the overall weighted prevalence, the prevalence by country, and by clinical and non‐clinical samples. Results A total of 10,082 occurrences were identified through database searches, and 23 studies were included (Mexico = 9; Brazil = 7; Chile = 4; Argentina = 1; Peru = 1; Uruguay = 1). The prevalence of FA found in clinical samples was 38% (95% CI: 16%–63%; I2 = 98.67%; 8 studies), while in non‐clinical samples, it was 15% (95% CI: 10%–21%; I2 = 98.51%; 15 studies). Discussion The average prevalence of FA in the Latin American countries included here was in accordance with that reported in other regions worldwide. It is noteworthy that the studies were conducted only in six countries, which are among those with the highest income in the region and do not represent the situation in native populations or those with lower purchasing power. This gap in the data also reflects the effects of economic disparities on the availability of empirical data in the region. Public Significance The prevalence of food addiction in Latin America was similar to that reported in other regions. It was higher among individuals with overweight, whether or not undergoing bariatric surgery, than in non‐clinical samples. These findings contribute to aggregate information about this condition that has drawn the attention of clinicians and researchers.

“…También permite discriminar entre individuos con TPA moderado o severo e individuos sin este trastorno. En esta investigación se empleó la validación mexicana de Moreno et al (2016) dadas sus adecuadas propiedades psicométricas (valor del α de Cronbach de 0.7963). Para la confiabilidad se obtuvo el coeficiente de Spearman por la metodología test-retest, de r = 0.565.…”

Binge eating disorder is characterized by excessive food consumption, which is accompanied by a sense of loss of control and occurs at least once a week. This study compared maladaptive schemas, stress coping strategies and two emotional disorders in two groups of gym-going women (a group at risk for binge eating disorder and a group not at risk) and analyzed which variables were predictors of binge eating disorder risk in this group of women. The variables included as predictors explained 55 % of the risk of BPD: two maladaptive schemas, two coping strategies, one measure of obesity, one psychopathological personal history, one psychopathological family history, and one measure of frequency of gym attendance. The importance of these variables in the genesis and maintenance of binge eating disorder is discussed.
