The relationship between eating style, attitudes towards food and food intake was investigated in 846 British adolescent schoolchildren. Eating style was assessed with the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire, attitudes towards food with a series of specially prepared questions, and food intake with a diet history taken by a dietitian. The results showed that restraint, external and emotional eating were associated with very different profiles of attitudes and behaviour. Restrained subjects had a higher body weight, more negative attitudes towards food, a lower likelihood of overeating and a lower overall energy intake. External eaters had a lower body weight, positive attitudes to food, and reported a higher energy intake. Emotional eaters fell in between in some ways, with some signs of situational loss of control combined with a negative attitude towards overeating. While external eating appeared to be attenuated by restraint, emotional eating was enhanced by it. The implications of these eating styles for later patterns of eating and weight are discussed.
