This study investigated the factors affecting restrained and emotional eating according to the BMI of college women inSeoul. Based on their weight, 514 college women were divided into 3 groups. General demographics, nutrientconsumption, eating habits and DEBQ were subsequently evaluated. Multiple regression analysis was performed todetermine the factors responsible for restrained and emotional eating in each group. Percentage of the overweight or obesegroup having negative emotions, such as frequency of overeating (p<0.05), habitual eating, regret, and guilt afterovereating, was higher as compared to the other groups (p<0.001). Considering factors that affect restrained eating,negative emotion after overeating had a positive correlation in the underweight group (β=0.481, p<0.001). In the normalweightgroup, the BMI (β=0.201, p<0.001), total food intake (β=0.241, p=0.002), and negative emotion after overeating(β=0.284, p<0.001) positively affected restrained eating. In the underweight group, habitual eating (β=0.292, p=0.002)and negative emotions after overeating (β=0.233, p=0.012) were determined to affect emotional eating. Moreover,habitual eating (β=0.290, p<0.001) and negative emotions after overeating (β=0.172, p=0.004) were observed toinfluence emotional eating in the normal weight group. In the overweight and obese groups, habitual eating was determinedto affect emotional eating (β=0.410, p<0.001). Taken together, these results provide a basis for creating a weight controlprogram for young women having undesirable eating behaviors, such as restrained and emotional eating.
