The Mediating Effect of Offence-related Feelings of Shame and Guilt on the Relationship Between Sense of Coherence and Emotional Eating in Adult Women

Öz

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the mediating effect of offence-related feelings of shame and guilt on the relationship between the sense of coherence and emotional eating in adult women. Material and Methods: The study was carried out in descriptive-relational design. The population of the research consisted of 543 adult women who met the criteria for inclusion in the research. A Introductory Information Form, Sense of Coherence (SOC), Emotional Eater (EEQ) and Offence-Related Shame and Guilt (ORSGS) were used to collect data. Results: SOC mean score was 53.35 ± 8.17, EEQ mean score was 10.32 ± 5.90, and ORSGS mean score was 41.10 ± 12.11. It was determined that there was a weak statistically, significant and positive correlation and between EEQ and ORSGS mean scores. It was determined that there was a weak, statistically significant and negative correlation between the SOC and the EEQ mean scores, and a weak, statistically significant and negative correlation between the SOC and the ORSGS mean scores (p<0.05). 6.9% of Adult women's ORSGS scores are explained by EEQ and 9.5% of SOC scores are explained by EEQ and ORSGS. Conclusion: İt is seen that offence related shame and guilt moderately mediate the relationship between the sense of coherence and emotional eating in adult women. At the same time, the sense of coherence in women has a direct predictive effect on emotional eating. The results of the study draw attention to the importance of emotional eating behavior and expressions of offence-related shame and guilt in protecting and maintaining health.
