Document Summary

Dietary restraint and body mass change: used dutch sample to make a baseline test and took a follow up 3 years later. There was a positive main effect of dietary restraint: If participants had higher dietary restraint at baseline, larger increase in bmi at 3 year follow up. Dietary restraint and concern for dieting associated with increase in bmi for females, not males-why: not sure, maybe because it is harder to maintain for females. Weight fluctuation associated with increases in bmi in males and females. Higher dietary restraint associated with higher vulnerability to temptations and abandoning diets. Females and overweight people scored higher on dietary restraint scale than males and normal weight people. No significant effects of education, age, ethnicity, weight level, or physical activity level on relationship between restraint and bmi. Eating style, tv, and snacking in children: questionnaire about snacking and tv watching in kids in 3 eating styles.
