This study seeks to illuminate the effects of high stress on eating habits, such as craving regulation, and the relationship between regulatory success and eating disorder symptomatology. Many years of research have showed a strong correlation between emotional regulation and ED risk. High stress has major effects on eating habits, such as craving regulation, and acts as a mediator between regulatory success and eating disorder symptomatology. A lot of modern and foundational research on eating disorders (ED) and emotional regulation (ER) has focused primarily on risk reduction and mitigation, but very little has been dedicated to prevention. In this study, we observe the correlation between ED scores and reappraisal abilities.
