“…Binge eating deserves clinical attention due to its negative and often long-lasting consequences such as childhood obesity (Marcus & Wildes, 2013; Stankovic & Potenza, 2010), which may put children and adolescents at greater risk for serious health issues (Han, Lawlor, & Kimm, 2010; Stankovic & Potenza, 2010; Stewart, 2011). Our findings on gender and racial/ethnic symptom variabilities have implications for informing intervention efforts for binge eating behavior, as well as prevention practices that promote healthy eating, in a diverse adolescent population.…”

“…BED, a new diagnosis in DSM5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013), is characterized as recurrent consumption of unusually large quantities of food (i.e., overeating) with a sense of loss of control and marked distress. BED is associated with obesity (Marcus & Wildes, 2013; Neumark-Sztainer et al, 2007; Stankovic & Potenza, 2010) and comorbid with almost all major psychiatric disorders (Fairburn et al, 1998; Hudson, Hiripi, Pope, & Kessler, 2007; Swanson et al, 2011). BED is the most prevalent eating disorder among adolescents in the U.S. general population (1.6%) (Swanson et al, 2011).…”

Objective-Binge eating disorder (BED) is the most prevalent eating disorder in the U.S. adolescent population. Both BED and subthreshold binge eating disorder (SBED) are associated with physical and mental health problems. Gender and racial/ethnic differences in prevalence of binge eating in a nationally representative sample of adolescents have been reported but have not yet been assessed in relation to individual symptoms of binge eating. We examined gender and racial/ethnic differences in endorsement of eight binge eating symptoms in a nationally representative sample of U.S. adolescents. *Corresponding author: Angela E.

“…Binge eating disorder (BED) is a public health concern (Austin, 2012; Swanson, Crow, Le Grange, Swendsen, & Merikangas, 2011), as it is the most prevalent eating disorder in adolescents (Swanson et al, 2011) and adults (Hudson, Hiripi, Pope, & Kessler, 2007) in the general U.S. population and has physical and mental health consequences, including obesity (Marcus & Wildes, 2013; Neumark-Sztainer et al, 2007; Stankovic & Potenza, 2010) and comorbidity with many psychiatric disorders (Fairburn et al, 1998; Hudson et al, 2007; Swanson et al, 2011). BED, newly included as a diagnostic category in DSM5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013), is characterized by recurrent episodes of eating unusually large quantities of food without engaging in purging behavior, accompanied by a feeling of loss of control and distress.…”

Personality and Individual Differences

Binge eating behavior is a public health concern with serious physical and mental health consequences. Certain personality traits have been found to contribute to the development of eating disorders in clinical samples of youth, but little is known about associations between personality traits and binge eating in the general adolescent population. We examined the associations of neuroticism and impulsivity–both independently and in combination–with lifetime prevalence of binge eating, using nationally representative, cross-sectional data from the National Comorbidity Survey: Adolescent Supplement (n=437). Neuroticism and impulsivity were each significantly associated with lifetime prevalence of binge eating (adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR]=1.11, confidence interval [CI]=1.07, 1.15, p<0.001; aPR=1.06, CI=1.04, 1.09, p<0.001, respectively). The combination of high neuroticism and high impulsivity was associated with higher lifetime binge eating than the combination of low neuroticism and low impulsivity (aPR=3.72, CI=2.45, 5.65, p<0.001), and this association was stronger for female than male adolescents (females: aPR=5.37, CI=3.24, 8.91, p<0.001 vs. males: aPR=2.45, CI=1.43, 4.22, p=0.002). Our findings have implications for informing theories of etiology and interventions to target binge eating behaviors.

Associations of neuroticism-impulsivity and coping with binge eating in a nationally representative sample of adolescents in the United States

Objective Binge eating behavior is a public health concern due to its negative physical and mental health consequences. Little is known about the interplay of personality traits, coping styles, and binge eating in the general adolescent population. We examined the associations among the combination of neuroticism and impulsivity (NI), maladaptive coping styles (poor problem solving, distraction, and escape-avoidance), and lifetime prevalence of binge eating in a nationally representative sample of U.S. adolescents. We also explored coping as a moderator of the NI–lifetime binge eating association and gender as a moderator of the NI–coping associations and coping–lifetime binge eating associations. Methods We used data from the National Comorbidity Survey: Adolescent Supplement (NCS-A: 2001–2004), a cross-sectional nationally representative study of adolescents aged 13 to 18 years (n=10,028). We studied the associations of NI and coping with lifetime binge eating using multivariate regression models. Results High NI was significantly associated with all three coping styles, especially escape-avoidance (β = 3.96, confidence interval [CI] = 3.62, 4.29, p < 0.001). Gender was a significant moderator of the NI–distraction coping association (β = −0.68, CI = −1.33, −0.03, p = 0.041), indicating a stronger association in males (β = 1.20, CI = 0.81, 1.58, p < 0.001) than females (β = 0.53, CI = 0.02, 1.03, p = 0.042). Lifetime prevalence of binge eating was 1.13 times higher with increased escape-avoidance coping (CI = 1.10, 1.18, p < 0.001). Discussion Our findings indicate significant associations among high NI, increased escape-avoidance coping, and higher lifetime prevalence of binge eating in adolescents. Findings of our study have potential to inform development of interventions that target modification of maladaptive personality traits and coping styles to reduce problematic eating.
