Title Description
Restrained Eating vs. Food Worry and Power of Food as Competing Explanations of Overeating and Overweight The present study aims to examine the associations between three important candidates for explaining overeating and overweight and compare their differential impact on food intake (as measured by a snack diary) and weight status in a prospective design with a 1 month follow-up. In July 2010, the LISS panel was presented a questionnaire about eating habits and attitude regarding snacks. In August 2010, a random selection of the panel members that participated in part 1 was asked to keep a diary for one week in which to record all snacks consumed.
Restrained Eating vs. Food Worry and Power of Food as Competing Explanations of Overeating and Overweight > Part 1 This is the first part of the study. the LISS panel was presented a questionnaire about eating habits and attitude regarding snacks.
Restrained Eating vs. Food Worry and Power of Food as Competing Explanations of Overeating and Overweight > Part 2 This is the second part of the study. Panel members were asked to keep an online diary for one week in which to record all snacks consumed.
Proactive Coping and Health Behaviour In February (part 1) and March (part 2) 2012, the LISS panel completed a questionnaire in which several personality characteristics were measured. The UPCC (Utrecht Proactive Coping Competence scale) is a 21-item scale that measures whether individuals are able to set realistic goals, identify opportunities for acting upon goals, and deal with obstacles along the way. The main aim of the present study is to assess the validity and reliability of the UPCC in a representative sample of the general population. In the second part respondents also got questions about eating snacks.
Proactive Coping and Health Behaviour > Part 1 In February 2012, the LISS panel completed a questionnaire in which several personality characteristics were measured: the UPCC (Utrecht Proactive Coping Competence scale), self-efficacy, goal orientations, self-control, future time perspective, preventive coping, and motivation and intention regarding a health life.
Proactive Coping and Health Behaviour > Part 2 In March 2012, the LISS panel completed a questionnaire on eating snacks. The questionnaire is part of a study in which the validity and reliability of the UPCC (Utrecht Proactive Coping Competence scale) is examined. In this part, the UPCC is administered for the second time.
Reasons to Snack This project aims to investigate the reasons for unhealthy snacking behavior. To that end, the validity and reliability of the Reasons to Snack Scale are assessed. The predictive validity of the scale is determined by measuring unhealthy snack consumption one month after administering the Reasons to Snack Scale.
Reasons to Snack > Part 1 In March 2013, the LISS panel was presented the questionnaire “Consumption of snacks”. This questionnaire aims to examine the reasons for unhealthy snacking behavior.
Reasons to Snack > Part 2 In April 2013, the LISS panel was presented part 2 of the questionnaire “Consumption of snacks”. Besides repeating the Reasons to Snack Scale, the predictive validity of the scale is determined by measuring unhealthy snack consumption.
Bedtime Procrastination: An Exploration of the ‘Who’, ‘What’ and ‘Why’ In the current study we aim to shed light on the prevalence of bedtime procrastination in the general population and to find out to what extent it is perceived as problematic. In addition, we aim to explore to what extent bedtime procrastination can be considered a typical self-regulation problem, and what are the most common reasons for people to stay up late. This project consists of two parts; in the second part people keep a diary in which bedtime behavior is assessed.
