Objectives: Emotional eating is a psychological aspect of eating disorders. Recent studies have found that emotional eating is prevalent among older adults. This study aimed to investigate the current situation of emotional eating and explore the factors influencing emotional eating in older adults.
Method: 1073 people aged 60 years and older were recruited from a community in Northeast China. Participants completed body measurements, emotional eating scale, sex-adapted silhouettes, Physical Activity Rating Scale, Loneliness Scale, and questionnaires.
Results: Women had higher levels of emotional eating, loneliness, and body dissatisfaction thanmen. Multiple linear regression showed that loneliness (β = 0.29, p < 0.01), screen time (β = 0.29, p < 0.01), body dissatisfaction (β = 0.26, p < 0.01), BMI (β = 0.11, p < 0.01), and female sex (β = 0.07, p < 0.01) were risk factors for emotional eating, while physical activity (β = -0.18, p < 0.01) was a protective factor for emotional eating.
Conclusion: Older adults with high levels of body dissatisfaction, may have higher levels of loneliness and lower levels of physical activity, are more likely to engage in emotional eating. These findings emphasize the influence of body dissatisfaction, loneliness, and physical activity on emotional eating in older adults in Northeast China.
