Abstract

Addiction models have implicated sensitivity to punishment (SP) and sensitivity to reward (SR) in substance addictions, but these constructs are under-evaluated in food addiction (FA). In a national sample, SP and SR are indirectly associated with food FA by way of affective lability (AL), but only SP evinces direct associations.
