Abstract

<p>Disordered eating is a risk factor for onset of eating disorders, and a primary symptom of eating disorders. Only a few studies have examined adults’ disordered eating because most research on eating disorders have been conducted on high-school and college students. The current study used a cross-sectional design and examined the effects of emotion regulation strategies, including rumination and cognitive reappraisal, and interpersonal problems on disordered eating among women aged 23–49 years. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated increased ruminations and interpersonal problems associated with increased disordered eating patterns, such that women with more cognitive reappraisal experienced more diet restrictions. Moreover, there was a significant interaction between rumination and interpersonal problems on diet restrictions. These results suggest that rumination and interpersonal problems exacerbate disordered eating. Furthermore, we have discussed the association between depressive symptoms and disordered eating patterns.</p>
