Abstract
Binge-eating disorder (BED) represents a complex condition characterized by recurrent episodes of uncontrolled overeating, leading to significant distress and health consequences. This study aims to investigate the intricate interplay between metacognition, desire thinking, eating beliefs, and craving among Indian women with binge-eating behavior. Drawing upon the Metacognitive Model of Eating, we explore how metacognition relates to desire thinking and craving and whether it acts as an independent predictor of binge-eating severity in this population. The study's findings hold potential implications for the development of metacognitive interventions tailored to treat BED in the context of Indian culture. By delving into these cognitive facets, this research strives to enhance our understanding of the cognitive underpinnings of BED among Indian women and inform more effective treatment strategies.
