Cognitive Behaviour Theory
摘要
The cognitive behaviour theory of binge-eating disorder (BED) integrates established transdiagnostic mechanisms that maintain binge-eating episodes with the cognitive and behavioural factors that play a role in the perpetuation of clinical obesity. The model hypothesizes that events triggering mood changes, overvaluation of shape and weight, and dysfunctional dieting contribute to the continuance of binge-eating episodes, mirroring their role in other eating disorders. The model is innovative in that it acknowledges the need to address dysregulated eating and overeating between binge-eating episodes, as well as sedentary lifestyle, unrealistic weight-loss goals and associated primary goals (see below), and internalized weight stigma.
