Figure 1

Temporal association between higher-order negative affect subscale and overeating-only, loss of control eating-only, and binge eating episodes. The figure shows the momentary levels and trajectories of global negative affect associated with overeating-only, loss of control eating-only, and binge eating episodes. The pre- and post-event trajectories of global negative affect were modeled separately using piecewise linear, quadratic, and cubic functions centered on the time at which each of the eating episodes occurred. Momentary observations (Level 1) were nested within subjects (Level 2). Both pre- and post-event linear components in the binge eating model were significant indicating a change in the trajectory of global negative affect before and after binge eating episodes. The scaling of the y-axis ranged from 11.0 to 55.0.
