The goal of this observational study is to explore if different and specific profiles can be identified in adults with binge eating disorder (BED) depending on their additional eating pathology, emotion regulation and executive functions. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Binge eating disorder (BED) is a severe eating disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of binge eating, where control over eating is lost and huge amounts of food are eaten within a short period of time. Hence, weight issues are often inevitable and overweight is common, as are social, mental as well as physical problems.
The etiology of binge eating disorder is an interplay of neurobiological and environmental factors. Overall pathological eating, including grazing, external, emotional or restrictive eating, is associated with binge eating, and so is dysregulation in the reward center, impairment of executive functions and emotion regulation. The investigators suggest that it is possible to identify specific profiles driving binge eating, depending on the severity of these dimensions, and that these profiles might predict the outcome of treatment. The investigators also suggest that early change in general eating pattern, emotion regulation, and depressive symptoms is associated with binge eating outcome. These assumptions will be tested in a sample of adults in treatment for BED at one of three sites using questionnaires before, during and after treatment, incl. 6- and 12-month follow-ups.
