Relationship between negative life events and emotional eating in college students:The mediating effect of self-control and moderating effect of self-esteem
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between negative life events and emo-tional eating in college students,as well as the mediating role of self-control and the moderating role of self-esteem.The adolescent self-rating life events checklist,Dutch eating behavior questionnaire,self-con-trol scale,and self-esteem scale were used to investigate 1190 college students.The results showed that:(1)Negative life events had a significant positive predictive effect on emotional eating;(2)Self-control played a partial mediating role between negative life events and emotional eating;(3)Self-esteem could moderate the influence of self-control and emotional eating.With the increase of self-esteem,the predic-tive effect of self-control on emotional eating gradually weakened.The research results are of great signifi-cance for correcting the bad coping styles of college students and helping them establish a positive and healthy diet concept.
