情绪暴饮暴食是最常见的情绪饮食类型,通常与能源密集产品的消耗增加有关,以及过多的体重,和体重增加。尽管许多研究评估了成人人群在COVID-19大流行期间的情绪暴饮暴食,对儿童和青少年的研究很少。本研究的目的是评估情绪暴饮暴食的背景,包括对六种情绪(焦虑,悲伤,孤独,疲倦,愤怒,和幸福),在COVID-19大流行期间PLACE-19研究中的波兰青少年人群中。PLACE-19研究是波兰一项基于人口的全国性研究,是根据对中学的随机配额抽样,对招募时收集的青少年进行的。在1126名学生(818名女性和308名男性,年龄中位数为17.0岁和16.5岁,分别)。使用情绪暴饮暴食问卷(EOQ)评估情绪暴饮暴食,作为额外的因素,评估了以下内容:性别,体重,COVID-19大流行期间的体重变化,并宣布诱人的食品。女性参与者宣布因焦虑情绪而暴饮暴食的频率更高,悲伤,孤独,和幸福,总得分高于男性参与者,而p≤0.05被解释为有统计学意义。肥胖参与者宣布,由于悲伤的感觉,暴饮暴食的频率更高,和孤独比正常体重的参与者。体重增加的参与者宣布,由于焦虑的感觉,暴饮暴食的频率更高,悲伤,孤独,疲倦,和愤怒,其特点是总得分高于减肥或保持体重稳定的参与者,而增加体重的参与者宣布比减肥的参与者更高的频率暴饮暴食以回应幸福感。参与者宣称甜味和咸味产品都具有诱惑力,他们宣称由于焦虑情绪而暴饮暴食的频率更高,和悲伤比参与者宣布没有诱人的产品;参与者宣布甜味和咸味产品都比参与者宣布只有咸味产品和那些没有诱人产品的参与者更频繁地暴饮暴食。以及宣布比参与者只宣布甜品更高的频率暴饮暴食以回应幸福感,以及那些宣称没有诱人产品的人;宣称甜味产品的参与者对愤怒情绪的反应比宣称没有诱人产品的参与者更频繁地暴饮暴食,当参与者宣布甜味和咸味产品时,他们表示由于孤独感而暴饮暴食的频率更高,其特点是总分高于所有其他受访者。情绪暴饮暴食频率最高的亚组是女性受访者,肥胖的参与者,那些体重增加的人,那些宣称甜味和咸味产品都很诱人的人,而在最经常导致情绪暴饮暴食的情绪中,有悲伤和孤独。
Emotional overeating is the most frequently noted type of emotional eating, being commonly associated with increased consumption of energy-dense products, as well as excessive body mass, and weight gain. Even though a number of studies assessed emotional overeating during the COVID-19 pandemic in adult populations, studies of children and adolescents are scarce. The aim of the present study was to assess emotional overeating background, including consumption in response to six emotions (anxiety, sadness, loneliness, tiredness, anger, and happiness), in the population of Polish adolescents within the PLACE-19 Study during the COVID-19 pandemic. The PLACE-19 Study is a national Polish population-based study of adolescents gathered upon recruitment based on a random quota sampling of secondary schools, conducted in a population of 1126 students (818 females and 308 males, a median of age 17.0 and 16.5 years, respectively). Emotional overeating was assessed while using the Emotional Overeating Questionnaire (EOQ), and as additional factors, the following were assessed: gender, body mass, body mass change during the COVID-19 pandemic, and declared tempting food products. Female participants declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of anxiety, sadness, loneliness, and happiness, and were characterized by a higher total score than male participants, while p ≤ 0.05 was interpreted as a statistical significance. Obese participants declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of sadness, and loneliness than normal weight participants. Participants gaining weight declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of anxiety, sadness, loneliness, tiredness, and anger, and were characterized by a higher total score than participants losing weight or maintaining a stable weight, while participants gaining weight declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of happiness than participants losing weight. Participants declaring both sweet and salty products as tempting declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of anxiety, and sadness than participants declaring no tempting products; participants declaring both sweet and salty products declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of tiredness than participants declaring only salty products and those declaring no tempting products, as well as declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of happiness than participants declaring only sweet products, and those declaring no tempting products; participants declaring sweet products declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of anger than participants declaring no tempting products, while participants declaring both sweet and salty products declared a higher frequency of overeating in response to feelings of loneliness, and were characterized by a higher total score than all other respondents. The sub-groups with the highest frequency of emotional overeating were the female respondents, obese participants, those gaining weight, and those declaring both sweet and salty products as tempting, while among the emotions most often causing emotional overeating, there were sadness and loneliness.
