Resumo

. Objective. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of an emotional regulation skills-based program on stress, anxiety, depression, and eating behavior, and to identify if there is a causal relationship between variables. Methods. An experimental study was carried out with 24 Mexican adults randomly assigned to a cognitive-behavioral intervention. A questionnaire including the DERS-15, DASS-21, AEBQ-E, and Emotional Eating Scale was utilized. Results. Following the intervention, changes were observed in all variables compared to baseline measurements, with several showing moderate effect sizes. There is a causal association between emotional dysregulation and negative affectivity, eating behavior, and emotional eating.
