An examination of the overlap between genetic and environmental risk factors for intentional weight loss and overeating.

The International journal of eating disorders - 1 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To further our understanding of how intentional weight loss (IWL) and overeating are related, we examined the shared genetic and environmental variance between lifetime IWL and overeating. METHOD: Interview data were available for 1,976 female twins (both members of 439 and 264 pairs of monozygotic and dizygotic twins, respectively), mean age = 40.61, SD = 4.72. We used lifetime diagnostic data for...
