Personality Subtypes in Female Pre-bariatric Obese Patients: Do They Differ in Eating Disorder Symptoms, Psychological Complaints and Coping Behavior?
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the pre-bariatric psychological assessment of 102 morbidly obese females, two personality subtypes emerged: a Resilient/High Functioning (RHF) subtype with a ‘normal’ personality profile, and an Emotional Dysregulated/Undercontrolled (EDU) subtype, characterized by high neuroticism and low extraversion/conscientiousness. EDU patients showed more concerns about eating/weight/shape, more binge-eating driven by emotions and external triggers, more psychological complaints (such as depression and anxiety) and more avoidance and depressive coping reactions than RHF patients. Further research should clarify whether these clearly different psychological profiles are related to different outcomes (weight loss, well-being) of bariatric surgery.
