摘要
Objective: This study investigated whether attachment history predicts unique variance in body mass index in young women. Method: A cross-sectional design was employed. One hundred and forty five women completed self report measures of attachment history and psychological symptoms. Results: The findings indicated that negative parental discipline predicted significant variance in body mass index when common variance associated with demographic and psychological symptom measures was taken into account. Conclusions: It is concluded that attachment history may contribute to overweight and obesity and may be an important factor to consider in the prevention and treatment of overweight in women.
