Specifically, in individuals who scored low in mindful eating behaviour, there was a significant relationship between BE and BMI, while higher scores made this relationship non-significant. While mindful eating may not directly reduce the frequency of BE in all contexts, it serves as a factor that weakens the positive association between BE and BMI. The research, therefore, emphasised the potential of mindful eating behaviour as a targeted intervention for individuals at risk of weight-related health difficulties. Implications, limitations, and recommendations for future research are discussed.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02601060261485043","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,4]],"date-time":"2026-09-04T03:05:45Z","timestamp":1788491145000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Breaking the link: The moderating role of\n                    <i>mindful eating behaviour<\/i>\n                    in the relationship between binge eating and body mass index"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"given":"Cerasela Oana","family":"Gavril","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Birmingham City University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandra Iuliana","family":"Negoita","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Birmingham City University"},{"name":"School of Psychological and Behavioural Sciences, College of Arts and Society, Coventry University, Birmingham, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9951-5052","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kyriaki","family":"Giannou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"De Montfort University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7476-3559","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michail","family":"Mantzios","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Birmingham City University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","volume-title":"Multiple Regression: Testing and Interpreting Interactions","author":"Aiken LS","year":"1991","unstructured":"Aiken LS, West SG, Reno RR (1991) Multiple Regression: Testing and Interpreting Interactions.
