Restraint was determined using the restraint sub-scale of the
Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (Van Strein, Frijters, Bergers,
& Defares, 1986). This entailed participants to rate their agreement
to ten questions by ticking a box on a 5-point Likert scale from
never (1) to very often (5). The minimum and maximum values a
participant could score are 1 and 5. In line with Higgs (2002), participants
with scores of 2.2 or less were classified as unrestrained
eaters (n = 64). Participants with a score greater than 2.2 were classified
as restrained eaters and their data (n = 5) were not included
in the analysis.
