“…between WBI and eating disorder pathology (such as dietary restraint, drive for thinness, emotional eating, purging or other maladaptive eating behaviours) have been examined using a variety of validated measures (7,21,22,34,37,40,46,49,51,55,57,60,63,(66)(67)(68)73,(75)(76)(77) or survey items created by researchers to assess eating behaviours specifically in response to experiences of weight stigma (50,78). Across these measures, studies have demonstrated significant correlations between WBI and dietary restraint (r values = 0.21-0.50), eating concerns (r values = 0.37-0.64), drive for thinness (r = 0.47) and measures assessing disinhibition, uncontrolled eating and emotional eating (r values = 0.46-0.65).…”
