◆ヒューストン大学の健康と人間のパフォーマンス学部の研究によると、ポジティブな子供時代の経験が少ないと、過食症状が増加し、直感的な食事のスコアが低下することが明らかになりました。
◆この研究は、828人のテキサスの大学生を対象に行われ、特に個人内のポジティブな子供時代の経験(自分自身との調和感など)が、大学生の過食症状の低い割合と直感的な食事の高いスコアに一貫して関連していることを示しました。
◆この知見は、過食症状や食事行動の形成においてポジティブな子供時代の経験が重要であることを強調し、健康なウェルビーイングを促進するために早期の介入と支援環境の構築が必要であることを示唆しています。

Abstract

Childhood experiences encompass both adverse and positive childhood events. Adverse childhood experiences are positively associated with binge-eating disorder characteristics and inversely associated with intuitive eating in adults. However, to what extent positive childhood experiences (PCEs) are associated with binge-eating disorder characteristics and intuitive eating remains unclear. This study examined the associations of cumulative and individual PCEs with binge-eating disorder characteristics and intuitive eating among college students. Data were collected from 828 college students in 2022 (54.5% female, Mage 20.9 ± 2.6 years). PCEs were assessed using the Benevolent Childhood Experiences scale. Binge-eating disorder characteristics were assessed with the Questionnaire on Eating and Weight Patterns–5. Intuitive eating was assessed with the Intuitive Eating Scale-2. Associations of PCEs with binge-eating disorder characteristics and intuitive eating were examined using modified Poisson regressions and linear regressions.

PCEs were cumulatively associated with binge-eating disorder characteristics and intuitive eating (p for trend <.05). College students in the low PCEs category (0–4 PCEs) had 1.37–1.92 times the prevalence of binge-eating disorder characteristics and had 3.89 points lower intuitive eating score than those in the high PCEs category (9–10 PCEs). Among the individual PCEs, intrapersonal PCE (i.e., feeling comfortable with oneself during childhood) was associated with both a lower prevalence of binge-eating disorder characteristics (aPR = 0.56–0.76) and a higher score of intuitive eating (adjusted β = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.28–2.46) after adjustment for sociodemographic variables.

Findings from this study suggest that PCEs may play a role in eating behaviors of college students. Future studies with nationally representative samples should prospectively examine associations of PCEs with binge-eating disorder characteristics and intuitive eating and explore the underlying mechanisms of the associations between PCEs and eating behaviors.
