Abstract:
The literature points to the importance of distinguishing between positive and negative
emotional eating in relation to overeating and binge eating. The aim of this study was to
evaluate the Spanish version of the Positive-Negative Emotional Eating Scale (PNEES) in
a Spanish community sample. The sample consisted of 628 participants. The mean age
was 27.5 (SD = 12.7) and 70.1% of them were women. The participants completed the
PNEES, and measures of anxiety and depression (HADS), and eating disorder-related
scales (TFEQ-R18, BULIT-R, and EAT-26) that were selected to examine convergent
validity. A confirmatory factor analysis was conducted, replicating the original two-factor
solution, consisting of Negative Emotional Eating (PNEES-N) and Positive Emotional
Eating (PNEES-P). The results showed an acceptable fit of the model (CFI = 0.986;
TLI = 0.984, RMSEA = 0.055). Internal consistency ranged from ω = 0.92 to ω = 0.96
for both subscales and the total score. PNEES-P correlations with other variables
were lower with respect to the PNEES-N, showing that they are different constructs.
A mediation analysis was conducted, in which PNEES-P significantly predicted binge
eating and PNEES-N was a partially mediator variable. The results showed that the
adaptation process was successful.
