摘要
Previous research has indicated a complex association between obesity and psychiatric disorders caused by biological, psychosocial and environmental factors and dependent from the severity of obesity. For example, empirical data confirmed a reciprocal link between depression and obesity. Obesity was found to increase the risk of depression and vice versa. There is further a growing body of research pointing towards the important role of impulsivity in obesity, particularly in obese individuals with a binge eating disorder.
