Note. Path a is equal in all cases Y1−3; therefore, it presented only once to avoid redundancies. N for analyses is 1,589 cases. The standard error and 95% CI for the indirect effects (a*b) are obtained through bootstrapping with 10,000 resamples. a path = Effect of X on M; b paths = Effect of M on Yi; c’ paths = Direct effect of X on Yi controlling for M; c paths = Total effect of X on Yi. SSS = Subjective Social Status-Community14; DERS = Difficulties with Emotion Regulation Scale22; Eating Expectancies-Negative Affect = Eating Expectancy Inventory-Eating Helps Manage Negative Affect subscale10; Eating Expectancies-Boredom = Eating Expectancy Inventory-Eating Alleviates Boredom subscale10; Eating Expectancies-Control = Eating Expectancy Inventory-Eating Leads to Feeling out of Control subscale.10 Covariates included gender, race/ethnicity, and negative affectivity.
