Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the discriminatory mechanism of anorexic and binge eating behaviors of young adult women focusing on the multidimensional concept of perfectionism and difficulties in emotion regulation. Participants were 185 female university/graduate school students. The Korean Version of Eating Attitude Test-26 (KEAT-26), the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale(MPS), and the Korean Version of Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale(K-DERS) were administered. First, according to the result of relative analysis, anorexic eating behaviors showed high correlation with personal standards/preference for order and organization of perfectionism and binge eating behaviors showed high correlation with excessive concern over falling short of perfectionism. Both anorexic and binge eating behaviors showed high correlation with nonacceptance of emotional responses of difficulties in emotion regulation. Second, the result of hierarchial regression analysis indicated that preference for order and organization of perfectionism and nonacceptance of emotional responses, and lack of emotional clarity on difficulties in emotion regulation influenced anorexic eating behaviors. Excessive concern over falling short of perfectionism and nonacceptance of emotional responses, and difficulties with engaging in goal-directed behavior of difficulties in emotion regulation influenced binge eating behaviors. Lastly, implications of health psychology and limitations of this study as well as the suggestion for future study were discussed.
