Abstract

AbstractIntroduction: The rapid increase in the prevalence of obesity, which is a multi-causal problem, in the past twenty years, in addition to genetic factors, has been attributed to cultural environmental factors, including family environment, eating and activity. . This research was conducted with the aim of predicting children's body mass index based on the mother's attachment style, taking into account the mediating role of emotional overeating in children.Research method: The research method was applied and of the correlation type, which was done using structural equation modeling. 280 children aged 7-12 years (including 144 boys and 136 girls) along with their mothers were selected to participate in the research by using the purposeful sampling method, based on the referral of nutritionists. Research tools include body mass index (BMI), Hazen and Shaver attachment style questionnaire and emotional eating scale (EES).Findings: The investigated model had a good fit and the results showed that mother's secure, avoidant and anxious attachment styles predict the child's body mass index both directly and indirectly through the mediation of the child's emotional overeating.Conclusion: This research highlights the role of the child's early environment, especially the mother, in the development of childhood obesity.
