“…Since emotional eating is related to less healthy dietary intake, it has been longitudinally linked to weight gain and obesity, especially in females (102,103) . Although no significant relationship was observed in a small number of studies (104) , other studies identified a significant percentage of emotional eating in overweight children (81,85,105,106) . Braet et al (105) showed that in a large sample of children and adolescents 10·5 % of overweight children reported high scores of emotional eating.…”

The role of emotion regulation in childhood obesity: implications for prevention and treatment

Stress and negative emotions pose a major threat to public health, by increasing the risk of obesity. Since the management process for emotions (emotion regulation; ER) is developed in childhood, we present a novel conceptual framework model for the role of ER in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity. A narrative review of the literature by electronic database search (MEDLINE, Web of Knowledge and Scopus) was conducted of observational and interventional/experimental literature on ER and obesity and the underlying concepts. We also present an overview of ER intervention techniques. Our model indicates that childhood ER is a link between stress and obesity. Stress along with ineffective ER leads to abnormal cortisol patterns, emotional eating, sedentary lifestyle, reduction of physical activity, and sleep problems. Simultaneously, a healthy lifestyle could show benefits on ER and in developing adaptive ER strategies. In the development of obesity and ER, parents also play a role. By contrast, effective ER skills decrease obesity-related unhealthy behaviour and enhance protective factors, which boost health. The literature contains some observational studies of children but very few intervention studies, most of which are pilot or on-going studies. In conclusion, encouraging effective ER could be a useful new approach for combating and treating childhood obesity. Future ER intervention studies are needed to confirm the validity of this model in children.

“…In a pilot study, the phrasing of the original DEBQ was slightly adapted, without modifying the content, to enhance the children's comprehension. The different subscales revealed a stable factor structure, satisfying internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha=0.77-0.91) and a good test-retest reliability (r= 0.87-0.90) (Braet et al, 2008;Braet et al, 2007).…”

“…The results of studies of an adult cohort of patients with obesity have shown that disorder weight has more associated with restrictive and emotional types of eating behavior [16]. In children group the role of each type of ED in the development of obesity is still discussed and depends largely on belonging to age group [13,14,16].…”

Currently, eating disorders (ED) refers to as «diseases of civilization» and the most important component in the development and progression of obesity in all age groups. Many studies conducted in the Americas, Europe, Russia indicate the increasing role of food programming, which is the basis for the formation of ED and determines the characteristics of the metabolism of an individual, the weight of the body and nature of the disease [1,2]. Various aspects of child nutrition in the first years of life, such as the nature of the introduction of complementary foods, the amount and nature of meals, time and frequency of eating and the formation of food preferences that determine the nature of human nutrition throughout life, have a programming effect and are associated with the risk of several diseases including obesity [3][4][5].Eating behavior (EB) is a set of forms of human behavior, a way of life and actions in various conditions, which include choice, especially food consumption, taking into account its sensory and other properties to provide the body with energy substrates, achieving psychological comfort from her admission, and evaluation of these processes. ED is aimed at meeting the biological, physiological, psychological and social needs of the individual. In this regard, the problems of studying the EB have an independent significance [6-9]. Eating behavior is influenced by internal and external factors that determine the availability of food, relative to food intake, emotional state and individual experience [10].EB is rated as harmonious or deviant. This score is determined by many different parameters: quantitative and qualitative indicators food, feeding, the setting in which the meal and the place that takes the process of eating in the structure of human values [11].According to psychosomatic theory, there are three main types of eating disorders: external, emotiogenic and restrictive. External eating behavior is characterized by increased reaction of the individual to external stimuli, which serve as: beautiful table set, dishes, the smell of food, advertising food, but internal incentives to food intake (the level of glycemia, free fatty acids). The importance of the availability to have a food. If children and adolescents with a body weight appropriate to age and sex, response to external food stimuli occurs in a state of hunger, the obese patients such a relationship is violated. Almost all patients with obesity have external manifestations of ED in different degrees of severity, given the slowly emerging and defective sense of fullness [6,12]. Research ArticleEndocrinol Metab Int J 2018, 6(1): 00157 AbstractAim: The aim of the present study is to show the features of eating behavior of pre-adolescents and adolescents with different body mass. Mаterials and methods:The study included 249 pre-adolescents aged 8-12 years and 314 adolescents aged 13-18 years. Body mass index has been calculated for every patient (considering age and gender). In order to assess the eating behavior of the partici...
