A MEDIATIONAL MODEL RELATING SOCIOTROPY, AMBIVALENCE OVER EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION, AND DISORDERED EATING
PSYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN QUARTERLY(2000)
摘要
Two factors that have been found to predict eating disorders are sociotropy or dependent personality style and ambivalence over emotional expression, but there has been little consideration of the relationship between them and how this relationship may contribute to an understanding of eating disorders, A mediational model is proposed in which high sociotropy leads to greater ambivalence ever expressing emotions, which in rum increases vulnerability to eating disorders. Consistent with predictions, among 115 college women, a high level of sociotropy was associated with a high level of ambivalence over emotional expression, which in turn was associated with increased disordered eating. Furthermore, ambivalence over emotional expression significantly mediated the effect of sociotropy on disordered eating, even when controlling for depression level. Findings are considered within a developmental framework, and treatment implications are discussed.
