The present study was planned to investigate differences in psychopathological features, eating behaviour and eating habits between @entity28 @entity1 with and without @entity18552 . It also aimed to identify specific relationships between affective symptoms and eating behaviour in @entity28 @entity1 with @entity18552 . Eighty-four @entity28 @entity1 were studied (40 with @entity18552 , 44 non- @entity18552 ). Psychiatric comorbidities were assessed with the @entity2383 ( @entity2383 ). @entity308 were measured with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and @entity148 with the state-trait @entity148 inventory (STAI). Eating habits (emotional and restrained eating) were assessed by the Dutch eating behaviour questionnaire (DEBQ). Food diaries were used for assessing naturalistic eating behaviour (food intake) and mood before and after food intake. @entity18552 subjects exhibited higher levels of comorbidity (in particular @entity1316 , @entity148 and @entity734 ), higher @entity308 , trait @entity148 , external and emotional eating scores than non- @entity18552 subjects. Regression analyses revealed that @entity148 were significant predictors for @entity18552 status. In the @entity18552 group, @entity308 were significantly related to emotional eating and food intake and negatively related to restraint. @entity148 was significantly related to emotional eating. In general, food intake significantly enhanced mood. Mood was worse on the days with self-reported binge eating episodes than on nonbinge days. These results are discussed with regard to aetiological models for @entity18552 and for @entity18552 being a distinct diagnostic category separate from @entity28 .
