ndltd-NEU--neu-m045xn49r2021-06-02T05:10:09ZAdolescents' self-determination to regulate eating behaviors: adaptation and validation of a self-report measure.The aim of this study was to adapt a measure of eating behavior regulation developed for use with adult females, the Regulation of Eating Behavior Scale (REBS), for use with mixed-gender, adolescents. The study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the adapted measure and to evaluate how responses differed across races/ethnicities and genders. Responses were examined in a sample of 261 adolescents across the United States. The factor structure was examined using exploratory (n=150) and confirmatory factor analyses (n=100). A two-factor model was identified as the best fit for the data in both analyses and using multiple fit indices. The revised measure demonstrated good internal consistency and validity. Subscale scores did not differ across gender or ethnicity for more intrinsic forms of eating behavior regulation, but they were significantly different across extrinsic forms of eating behavior regulation. The measure can be applied for use in future research to better understand properties of adolescent eating behavior regulation. Conclusions, implications, and future directions are discussed.--Author's abstracthttp://hdl.handle.net/2047/D20356160

The aim of this study was to adapt a measure of eating behavior regulation
developed for use with adult females, the Regulation of Eating Behavior Scale (REBS), for
use with mixed-gender, adolescents. The study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties
of the adapted measure and to evaluate how responses differed across races/ethnicities and
genders. Responses were examined in a sample of 261 adolescents across the United States.
The factor structure was examined using exploratory (n=150) and confirmatory factor analyses
(n=100). A two-factor model was identified as the best fit for the data in both analyses and
using multiple fit indices. The revised measure demonstrated good internal consistency and
validity. Subscale scores did not differ across gender or ethnicity for more intrinsic forms
of eating behavior regulation, but they were significantly different across extrinsic forms
of eating behavior regulation. The measure can be applied for use in future research to
better understand properties of adolescent eating behavior regulation. Conclusions,
implications, and future directions are discussed.--Author's abstract
