“…Intriguingly, studies examining both within‐ and between‐person relationships sometimes find vastly different results across levels of analysis: different results are sometimes found when we compare youth to each other (between‐person) versus themselves across time (within‐person), providing incentive to guard against the ecological fallacy. Goldschmidt et al () provide an example. They examined the correlates of overeating and loss of control over eating in 40 adolescents aged 8–14 with overweight/obesity in a two‐week EMA.…”

“…They examined the correlates of overeating and loss of control over eating in 40 adolescents aged 8–14 with overweight/obesity in a two‐week EMA. Goldschmidt et al () found that when adolescents were compared to themselves across time (within‐person), they perceived greater loss of control over eating on occasions with more palatable compared to themselves on occasions with less palatable food. However, when adolescents were compared to each other (between‐person), adolescents who tended to perceive food as less palatable showed higher loss of control over eating, on average, showing an opposite relationship to that observed at the within‐person level.…”

Background Enhancements in mobile phone technology allow the study of children and adolescents' everyday lives like never before. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) uses these advancements to allow in‐depth measurements of links between context, behavior, and physiology in youths' everyday lives. Findings A large and diverse literature now exists on using EMA to study mental and behavioral health among youth. Modern EMA methods are built on a rich tradition of idiographic inquiry focused on the intensive study of individuals. Studies of child and adolescent mental and behavioral health have used EMA to characterize lived experience, document naturalistic within‐person processes and individual differences in these processes, measure familiar constructs in novel ways, and examine temporal order and dynamics in youths' everyday lives. Conclusions Ecological momentary assessment is feasible and reliable for studying the daily lives of youth. EMA can inform the development and augmentation of traditional and momentary intervention. Continued research and technological development in mobile intervention design and implementation, EMA‐sensor integration, and complex real‐time data analysis are needed to realize the potential of just‐in‐time adaptive intervention, which may allow researchers to reach high‐risk youth with intervention content when and where it is needed most.

“…Although there is consistent support for the role of state and trait NA in adults (Haedt‐Matt & Keel, ; Smith et al, ), some naturalistic pediatric studies utilizing ecological momentary assessment have not found a direct relationship between state NA and LOC‐eating (Goldschmidt et al, ; Hilbert, Rief, Tuschen‐Caffier, de Zwaan, & Czaja, ; Ranzenhofer et al, ). Inconsistencies observed in the pediatric literature may be due to key differences in emotion regulation across the developmental spectrum (Swanson et al, ).…”

Objective: Momentary negative affect (NA) has been shown to predict eating patterns in the laboratory, yet, more stable mood states have not been studied in relation to eating patterns in the laboratory among youth at high risk for binge-eating disorder and obesity.Method: One-hundred-eight adolescent girls (14.5 ± 1.7 years) with BMI between the 75th-97th percentile who reported loss-of-control (LOC)-eating completed measures of trait anxiety and depressive symptoms. Food-intake patterns were measured from a laboratory test meal (9,385 kcal). Latent factor analysis of depressive symptoms and trait anxiety was used to compute latent trait NA. Multivariate general linear models predicted total energy, snacks, and macronutrient intake from trait NA, adjusting for age, race, height, lean-mass, and percentage fat-mass.Results: Trait NA was significantly positively related to total energy-intake, and, specifically, snacks, sweet snacks, and percentage sweet fats (ps ≤ .03), and negatively related to percentage protein consumed (p = .04).Discussion: Expanding on affect theory, trait NA may relate to palatable food-intake among girls with LOC-eating. Further data are needed to determine whether those with LOC-eating and trait NA are at heightened risk for the development of binge-eating disorder and obesity.

“…However, for children of parents with higher self-efficacy, overeating and loss of control eating were more similar across high and low levels of emotional eating. Given that emotion-related factors have not been as consistently linked to the momentary occurrence of disordered eating behaviors in youth compared to adults (Goldschmidt et al, 2018;Hilbert, Rief, Tuschen-Caffier, de Zwaan, & Czaja, 2009;Ranzenhofer et al, 2014), it may be that parent-related factors partly account for this inconsistency. (Burton, Smit, & Lightowler, 2007;Hill, Weaver, & Blundell, 1991), though this relationship may be more nuanced in youth.…”

Objective Parental factors have been linked to weight‐related outcomes in children, though less is known regarding the role of parental self‐efficacy (PSE) for promoting healthy dietary behaviors (HDBs). This study examined associations between PSE for promoting HDBs and child reports of craving, overeating, and loss of control eating in daily life. The interactive effects of PSE and child eating style (emotional eating, external eating, and restraint) were also explored. Method Thirty‐eight youth (ages 8–14; 55.3% female) with overweight/obesity and their parents completed the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire for Children (DEBQ‐C) and Parental Self‐Efficacy for Healthy Dietary and Physical Activity Behaviors Scale, respectively. Youth completed ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to report craving, overeating, and loss of control eating. Results Generalized estimating equations indicated no consistent main effects of PSE on EMA outcomes, but PSE interacted with DEBQ‐C child eating styles to predict each EMA outcome. Among children of parents with lower PSE, (a) higher emotional eating was associated with greater overeating and loss of control eating; (b) higher external eating was associated with greater craving; and (c) higher restraint was associated with greater loss of control eating and craving. Conversely, these associations were attenuated among children of parents with higher PSE. Discussion Together findings suggest the interplay of child characteristics and PSE regarding children's eating behaviors warrants future investigation in the context of eating and weight disorders. In particular, further research is needed to examine the directionality of effects and mechanisms underlying these associations.
