Weight-related stigmatization and binge eating among overweight adults in Southern Taiwan.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the level of weight-related stigmatizing experiences and binge eating in overweight adults in southern Taiwan. METHODS:This study design was a cross-sectional questionnaire survey with convenience sample. A total of 141 questionnaires were analyzed. RESULTS:The study showed that 97.9% participants had at least one weight-related stigmatizing experience in their lifetime. The main sources of weight-related stigmatizing experiences were from either parents, relatives or doctors. BMI and age were significantly correlated with weight-related stigmatizing experiences. Furthermore, about 19.9% of participants experienced binge eating. The scores of the weight-related stigmatizing experiences and binge eating were positively correlated (r=0.33, p<0.01). The scores of the weight-related stigmatizing experiences and monthly income significantly explained factors of binge eating. CONCLUSIONS:The findings showed that there is a need to develop interventions to assist overweight people cope with weight-related stigmatization and prevent binge eating in the future. :目的:本研究探討台灣南部超重成年人體重歧視經歷與狂食程度之相關性。 方法:本研究採橫斷性研究法,以結構式問卷及方便取樣收案,共收集有效 樣本141 位。結果:研究結果顯示97.9%的受試者一生中至少有過一次體重歧 視經歷,主要的體重歧視經歷來自於父母、親戚或醫師。BMI 及年齡與體重 歧視經歷顯著相關。此外,約有19.9%的受試者有狂食的經歷。體重歧視經歷 程度與狂食程度呈顯著正相關(r=0.33,p<0.01),而體重歧視經歷程度與月 收入為影響狂食程度之顯著因素。結論:本研究結果建議未來有必要制定干 預措施來幫助超重人群處理體重歧視,並避免狂食行為發生。
