Abstract

There is evidence to suggest an association between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and eating disorders (EDs). As those with subclinical symptoms of ADHD or ED often experience impairment, this cross-sectional study examined the relationship between ADHD symptoms and ED symptoms in a predominately subclinical undergraduate population. Students (n = 133; 80% female) completed questionnaires measuring ADHD and ED symptomatology. The relation between overall ADHD symptoms and ED symptoms was examined using linear regression; findings indicated that higher ADHD symptoms significantly predicted higher ED symptoms. When symptoms of both disorders were further delineated, inattentive ADHD symptoms consistently predicted higher ED symptoms (bulimia, body dissatisfaction, and drive for thinness). A number of mechanisms may explain the association between ADHD and ED symptoms, including shared executive function deficits, poor emotion regulation, and mood challenges. These mechanisms may have clinical relevance in ADHD and ED treatment and prevention efforts.

大学生ADHD症状与饮食失调症状的关系
有证据表明,注意缺陷/多动障碍(ADHD)和饮食失调(EDs)之间存在关联。由于那些有ADHD或ED亚临床症状的人经常经历障碍,本横断面研究在以亚临床为主的本科生人群中检测了ADHD症状和ED症状之间的关系。学生(n = 133;(80%为女性)完成ADHD和ED症状的问卷调查。采用线性回归检验ADHD总体症状与ED症状之间的关系;研究结果表明,ADHD症状越严重,ED症状越严重。当这两种疾病的症状被进一步描述时,注意力不集中的ADHD症状一致地预示着更高的ED症状(贪食症、对身体不满和对瘦的渴望)。许多机制可以解释ADHD和ED症状之间的联系,包括共同执行功能缺陷、情绪调节不良和情绪挑战。这些机制可能对ADHD和ED的治疗和预防工作具有临床意义。

期刊介绍: The Journal of General Psychology publishes human and animal research reflecting various methodological approaches in all areas of experimental psychology. It covers traditional topics such as physiological and comparative psychology, sensation, perception, learning, and motivation, as well as more diverse topics such as cognition, memory, language, aging, and substance abuse, or mathematical, statistical, methodological, and other theoretical investigations. The journal especially features studies that establish functional relationships, involve a series of integrated experiments, or contribute to the development of new theoretical insights or practical applications.
