“…This scale has received considerable support in its validity and reliability, including adequate internal consistency and test-retest reliability (36,37). The BSQ, BDI, and RSES are widely used measures of body image dissatisfaction and general psychosocial functioning in diverse clinical samples of obese patients (38)(39)(40)(41)(42), including bariatric surgery patients (43)(44)(45)(46)(47), and have been found to be associated with eating-related pathology within this latter group (25,26,48,49). The EOQ was included as an additional exploratory measure since eating (or overeating) in response to emotions is not uncommon for individuals who struggle with their eating behavior.…”
