The Relation of Post‐work Ruminative Thinking with Eating Behaviour

Cropley, Mark, Michalianou, Georgia, Pravettoni, Gabriella, Millward, Lynne J.·2012·Stress and Health

Abstract

Inability to unwind about work during leisure time has been associated with a number of negative health outcomes. This study was concerned with a possible behavioural pathway between unwinding and disease and examined the relationship between work‐related rumination and food choice. Work‐related rumination is arguably a core to understanding the ‘unwinding process’, and food choice is a well‐established indicator of nutritional health. Two hundred and sixty‐eight full‐time workers from a range of white‐collar occupations completed a self‐report measure of ruminative thinking about work and an eating behaviour questionnaire. Three types of ruminative thinking were identified by factor analysis and labelled affective rumination, problem‐solving pondering and detachment. In terms of food choice, high‐relative to low‐affective ruminators reported eating more unhealthy foods, and low detachers reported eating less cooked meals and more processed foods compared to high detachers. Problem‐solving pondering was not associated with food choice, and none of the factors were associated with healthy food choice. It was concluded that failure to unwind from work is not necessarily related to unhealthy food choices. What appears to be the crucial factor is the type of perseverative thinking that people engage in post‐work. Limitations and future directions are discussed. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
