These findings suggest defensive mechanisms tied absence experiences. Self-criticism strategies seem amplify self-monitoring self-evaluations, leading coping mechanism.

Background/Objectives: Excess adiposity, affecting 43% of the global adult population, is a major contributor to cardiometabolic diseases. Lifestyle behaviours, specifically dietary habits, play key role in weight management. Real-time assessment methods such as Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) provide context-rich data that reduce recall bias and offer insights into triggers lapses. This study examines among adults with excess adiposity Singapore using EMA, focusing on factors influencing adherence Methods: A total 250 participants BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2 were recruited track habits for one week, at least three times day, Eating Behaviour Lapse Inventory Survey (eBLISS) embedded within Trigger Response Inhibition Program (eTRIP© V.1) smartphone app. Logistic regression analysis was used identify predictors adherence. Results: Of 4708 responses, 76.4% responses indicative plans. Non-adherence primarily associated food accessibility negative emotions (stress, nervousness, sadness). Factors meals prepared by domestic helpers self-preparation significantly Negative premenstrual syndrome identified significant Conclusions: EMA offers valuable behaviours identifying real-time Future interventions can utilise technology-driven approaches predict prevent lapses, potentially improving management outcomes.

Emotional eating (EE) refers to in response (negative) emotions. Evidence for the validity of EE is mixed: some meta-analyses find only disordered patients, others restrained eaters, which suggest that certain subgroups show EE. Furthermore, measures from lab-based assessments, ecological momentary assessment (EMA), and psychometric often diverge.
