“…Five studies examined external body shame, the belief that one is evaluated negatively by others because of one's body shape and weight. Two cross‐sectional studies reported moderate to strong positive associations between external body shame and binge eating among clinical ( r = 0.43; Duarte & Pinto‐Gouveia, 2017a) and non‐clinical samples ( r = 0.67; Craven & Fekete, 2019). This association was positively mediated by body image‐related cognitive fusion (Duarte & Pinto‐Gouveia, 2017a) and negatively moderated by intuitive eating (Craven & Fekete, 2019).…”

Objective: Shame is broadly implicated in the development and maintenance of eating pathology. However, the relationship between shame and binge eating symptoms specifically is less clear. This review aimed to clarify what types of shame are associated with binge eating symptoms and the antecedents and maintenance factors in these relationships.Method: A systematic search for quantitative and qualitative empirical studies was conducted to identify evidence of the relationship between shame and binge eating symptoms. Altogether, 270 articles were identified and screened for eligibility in the review.Results: Results of the relevant empirical studies (n = 31) identified several types of shame associated with binge eating pathology: (i) internal shame, (ii) external shame, (iii) body shame and (iv) binge eating-related shame, as well as several mechanisms and pathways through which shame was associated with binge eating symptoms.Discussion: Drawing from the research findings, this review presents an original, integrated model of the cyclical shame-binge eating relationship. Clinical interventions that might break this cycle are discussed, as well as methodological weaknesses which limit causal inferences and important areas of future research.

Objective: Numerous empirical studies and theoretical models posit that shame is a common experience among individuals across the eating disorder spectrum. In this study we aim to investigate the association between shame and eating disorders symptoms using a meta-analytical approach.Method: In this meta-analysis, we synthesized findings from 195 studies to examine the proposed association between shame and eating disorders symptoms. We looked at the associations with both general eating disorders symptoms and with specific eating disorders symptoms (i.e., anorexic, bulimic, and binge-eating symptoms). Moderation analyses testing for the effect of type of shame, type of eating symptoms, clinical status, quality of the study, age, and gender were conducted.Results: Shame was significantly associated with a medium to large effect size with all types of eating disorders symptoms (rs between .40 and .52). Body shame (r = .55) and shame around eating (r = .59) were more strongly related with eating disorders pathology. Type of eating disorders symptoms did not moderate the relationship between shame and disturbed eating.Discussion: Overall, the magnitude of the effect size of the association between shame and eating disorders symptoms is a medium to large one. Body shame and shame around eating seem to be the types of shame most closely tied with eating disorders symptoms, suggesting that directly targeting them in interventions might be highly beneficial. Findings highlight current gaps in the literature (e.g., mostly correlational studies, low quality studies) with implications for future research.

“…Conradt et al (2007) found in their original study a mildly significant, positive correlation between body mass index (BMI) and WEB-S, but not with WEB-G, among a non-clinical sample of obese people. In a sample of undergraduate women, Craven and Fekete (2019) found, that WEB-S and WEB-G are related to increased binge eating syndrome. However, Albohn-Kühne and Rief (2011) found that obese people with BED had higher scores in WEB-G, but scores in WEB-S were not higher.…”

“…It contains two factors: weight-and body-related shame (WEB-S, which is triggered by imagined or real others) and weight-and body-related guilt (WEB-G, which is related to eating habits, exercising, and weight control). Although data in the existing literature has suggested that the WEB-SG is a reliable measurement tool (e. g. Albohn--Kühne and Rief, 2011;Conradt et al, 2007;Conradt et al, 2008;Craven and Fekete, 2019), the results are ambiguous. Conradt et al (2007) found in their original study a mildly significant, positive correlation between body mass index (BMI) and WEB-S, but not with WEB-G, among a non-clinical sample of obese people.…”
