Psychological characteristics associated with eating motives of the Palatable Eating Motives Scale (PEMS) were identified in 192 undergraduates. Coping was characterized by greater BMI, emotion-triggered eating, and eating concern and also by binge-eating and perceived stress reactivity in females. Reward Enhancement was characterized by greater BMI, anxiety- and depression-eating in females and by anger/frustration-eating in males. Conformity was strongly characterized by binge-eating and by failure-based stress and all eating disorder traits in females and by anger/frustration- and anxiety-eating in males. The sex-divergent patterns of these traits across PEMS motives highlight the heterogeneity of hedonic eating. The traits may also be maintaining the motives, hence adresseing them should improve treatments for obesity, binge-eating, and foster healthier coping, reward, and psychosocial interactions.

Aim: This study aims to explore the experiences and feelings of women of childbearing age with diabetes skin pruritus after being diagnosed.
Methods: Using the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis method, semi-structured interviews were conducted with women of childbearing age who suffer from diabetes skin pruritus, followed by data analysis.
Results: Three superordinate themes and eight subthemes were identified, including psychological distress (self-identity, lack of understanding from others, emotional damage and self-disgust), physical impairment (loss of bodily control, treatment challenges, impact on female sexual characteristics), and coping post-trauma (social withdrawal, active coping).

Introduction: To target psychological support to cancer patients most in need of support, screening for psychological distress has been advocated and, in some settings, also implemented. Still, no prior studies have examined the appropriate 'dosage' and whether screening for distress before cancer treatment may be sufficient or if further screenings during treatment are necessary. We examined the development in symptom trajectories for breast cancer patients with low distress before surgery and explored potential risk factors for developing burdensome symptoms at a later point in time.
