“…As provided in Table 1, in 26 articles, only the female population was studied (11,14,15, and in 2 articles, only the male population was studied (10,47). In 16 studies, the study population included both genders (8,9,13,16,(21)(22)(23)(48)(49)(50)(51)(52)(53)(54)(55)(56). Approximately 63.5% of the pooled sample was female.…”

“…Given the nature of the disorder and its various socio-cultural contexts, many studies have been conducted in Iran to estimate the prevalence of eating disorders and its subcategories in different populations of Iranian society by medical researchers (8)(9)(10)(11), humanities (6), and physical education (12) with diverse goals, methodologies, and epidemiological instruments, and different results have been achieved (13). According to some studies, including the study by Nobakht & Dezhkam (14), the prevalence of eating disorders in Iran was close to Western countries and even higher than in other non-Western countries; however, on the other hand, some studies, such as the study by Mohammadi et al (13), have reported the prevalence of this disorder to be lower than developed and high-income countries.…”

Background: Eating disorders are among the deadliest psychiatric diseases that have become increasingly prevalent in different societies in recent years. Various biological, social, and psychological factors are involved in the emergence of different types of eating disorders. Several studies have been conducted by medical and non-medical researchers in Iran to estimate the prevalence of this disorder and its subcategories, which have been associated with different epidemiological methodologies and instruments and inconsistent results. Objectives: This study aims to statistically analyze all available findings to determine the total estimate of the prevalence of eating disorders in the general population of Iran and to investigate the reasons for the heterogenous results in previous studies. Methods: The articles were collected by searching the following databases: SID, Magiran, Irandoc, Iran Medex, PubMed, and Google Scholar. All studies evaluating the prevalence of eating disorders in any region of Iran from 1990 to the end of 2021 were included in the study. Meanwhile, articles that were irrelevant in terms of subject or methodology were excluded. Three researchers independently extracted the data from the articles based on a pre-prepared list that included the author’s name, study title, year of publication, journal name, city and study population, sample size, study instruments, and eating disorder prevalence. Results: The estimated point prevalence of any eating disorder in Iran was 22% (95% CI, 7%-38%). The estimated lifetime prevalence of eating disorder, anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa was 1% (95% CI, 1%-2%), 1% (95% CI, 0%-1%), and 1% (95% CI, 0%-1%), respectively. Conclusions: The prevalence of eating disorders and its subcategories is much lower in Iran compared to high-income and developed countries. The available data are insufficient to determine the exact prevalence of this disorder in the general population, especially among Iranian men.

“…In order to simplify the interpretation of the results and as it was reported in previous studies (e.g., Giovannini et al, 2014; Karatzias et al, 2016), all DERS items were unified into a single composite score. Similarly, CERQ’s adaptive strategies (putting in perspective, positive reappraisal, planning, acceptance and positive focusing) and maladaptive strategies (other-blame, self-blame, rumination, catastrophization) were combined into two composite scores per participant (as previous studies have done, e.g., Davodi et al, 2016). To determine the extent of the relationship between the variables, partial correlations were computed.…”

Argentinean Adaptation and Psychometric Properties of the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ)

et al. 2021

The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) is a self-report measure designed to assess the two most widely studied strategies of Gross' model: cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression. Even though there are two Spanish adaptations of the ERQ, region-specific linguistic factors and dialects must also be considered when adapting a test for another country in order to ensure equivalent evaluations across cultures. The present work developed an Argentinean adaptation of the ERQ. Additionally, the study evaluated its psychometric properties and associations with theoretically related constructs. Study 1 consist of the translation the ERQ into Argentinean Spanish and the analysis of its internal structure and reliability in a sample of 2957 participants. The results supported a two-factor structure with good data fit, adequate factor loadings, and good test-retest reliability and internal consistency. Expected age and gender differences in the use of reappraisal and suppression were also observed. Study 2 analyzed the external validity (concurrent and convergent) of the ERQ adaptation in a sample of 2160 participants. Theory-consistent associations were found with emotion regulation mechanisms, anxiety, depression, and personality traits. In summary, the findings support the validity of a new ERQ adaptation and its use in Argentina.

This study aimed to investigate the relationships between eating attitudes, romantic relationship satisfaction and cognitive emotion regulation in university students. The sample of the study consisted of 355 university students between the ages of 17–60. In the study, Relationship Satisfaction Scale, Eating Attitudes Test-26 short form and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire were used as instruments. The collected data were analysed using the SPSS package program. In order to analyse the data, the relationships between the variables of the study were examined by Structural Equation Model. The objective of this study was to investigate how cognitive emotion regulation mediates the connection between eating attitudes and satisfaction in romantic relationships. The study's findings indicate a strong and negative correlation between romantic relationship satisfaction and eating attitudes. The study revealed a decrease in romantic relationship satisfaction among people with unfavorable eating attitudes. The study findings indicated that people who experienced dissatisfaction in their romantic relationships and exhibited negative attitudes towards eating were more likely to use maladaptive emotional regulation strategies, such as catastrophizing, to a greater extent. Individuals who experience dissatisfaction in their interpersonal relationships and possess bad eating attitudes tend to magnify the repercussions of negative situations. The acquired results are believed to provide guidance for the planning of potential intervention studies for improving cognitive emotional regulation.
