Summary: Evidence suggests that emotional eating and disinhibition play a significant role in the relationship between inadequate sleep and obesity, especially in women. Other eating behaviors, such as external eating, eating competence, and hunger, are also associated with poor sleep outcomes, but may not be determinants of the sleep-obesity association.

Summary: Research suggests that there is a link between dietary restraint and loss of control (LOC) eating in individuals with binge-spectrum eating disorders. However, it is unknown how often dietary restraint leads to successful dietary restriction and which types of restraint are associated with the highest risk of LOC eating. This study aimed to characterize dietary restraint and restriction among individuals with LOC eating and examine the temporal relationships between restraint/restriction and LOC eating.

Summary: The study found that dietary restraint is a unique eating behavior associated with weight loss at 6 months in adult weight loss interventions, but other factors did not predict weight maintenance at 18 months. Future research should focus on promoting flexible control and discouraging rigid restraint behaviors.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between dietary restriction and binge-eating among individuals with binge-eating disorder (BED). The results challenge the assumption that dietary restriction is a key factor in maintaining binge-eating and suggest that reducing dietary restriction may not have the intended effect on binge-eating frequency.

Summary: The interplay between dietary restraint, emotion regulation difficulties, and other risk factors of binge eating was assessed in a community sample of women. The findings suggest that dietary restraint and emotion regulation difficulties are related but operate independently in predicting binge eating. Negative affect and fluctuations, as well as neuroticism and preoccupation with body weight, indirectly predict binge eating.

Summary: This study investigated the relationships between routine and compensatory restraints and body mass index (BMI) among Chinese adults. It also explored the mediating role of emotional and external eating in these relationships. The findings showed that routine restraint was associated with higher BMI both directly and indirectly through emotional eating. Compensatory restraint was only indirectly related to higher BMI through emotional eating.

Summary: The vicious cycle model of obesity suggests that habitual intake of a diet high in fat and sugar impairs hippocampal function, leading to increased impulsive behaviors and making it harder to resist unhealthy diet choices. Evidence from studies with rodents and humans shows that these effects are interconnected.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the effects of environmental factors on eating behavior and food intake in toddlers. The results showed that food fussiness was more common in older children, children conceived with medical assistance, children exposed to distractions during meals, rewarded by parents to finish meals, free to eat at will, and those who ate only occasionally with the whole family. Unsatisfactory dietary diversification was not significantly associated with any variable.

Summary: The UK's aging population requires promotion of balanced nutrition, with a particular focus on increasing dietary fiber intake. Surveys involving older adults showed their willingness to learn about dietary fiber and the need for accessible information. Educational materials proved effective in engaging older adults and were perceived as useful. A holistic approach, involving support from various sources, can aid in improving dietary fiber consumption and overall health outcomes among older adults.

Summary: Overeating associated with neurogenic obesity after spinal cord injury (SCI) may be related to how persons with SCI experience satiation, their eating frequency, and the context in which they eat their meals. Those with SCI rely less on physiological satiation cues for meal termination and instead rely more on hedonic cues. There are differences in meal contexts and eating frequency between SCI individuals and controls, with SCI individuals consuming fewer meals but having a higher overall eating frequency due to increased snacking. These factors likely contribute to overeating associated with neurogenic obesity after SCI.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between executive functions and cognition during adolescence, and the intake of fat and sugar two years later. The study found that higher impulsivity and reward-seeking behaviors were related to greater fat and sugar intake in males, while higher negative urgency and BMI were related to greater intake in both sexes. These findings suggest that individuals with certain traits may be more at risk for weight gain due to overconsumption of unhealthy foods.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns resulted in changes in food accessibility and availability, leading to shifts in food habits and behaviors among people worldwide. A study conducted in Australia examined the self-reported changes in food habits and behaviors of adults during the COVID-19 restrictions in 2020. The majority of respondents reported developing positive food habits, such as trying new recipes, cooking from scratch, and reducing take-away meals. The study also found that family involvement in food preparation and eating together increased during the restrictions. However, there were negative experiences, including difficulties in purchasing certain foods and limited access to food outlets.

Summary: This study tests the psychometric properties of the Adult Eating Behavior Questionnaire (AEBQ) in a sample of 14-year-olds and examines its construct validity using the parent-reported Children's Eating Behavior Questionnaire (CEBQ). The results show that a 7-factor solution of the AEBQ without the Hunger scale is a better fitting model, and there are small-to-moderate correlations between the AEBQ and CEBQ scales.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between sensory reactivity and feeding problems in young children. The results showed that taste/smell sensitivity was significantly associated with difficulties in texture transition/introduction, limited variety of foods, and both feeding problems. Additionally, children with total sensory reactivity or auditory filtering sensory reactivity had a higher prevalence of consuming a limited variety of foods. These findings highlight the importance of considering sensory reactivity as a potential predictor of feeding problems.
