Fiona Patrick - Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Clinical Psychology (DClinPsych)
Published 2024“…The role of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), negative self-beliefs (NSB), and self-compassion in body mass index (BMI) is explored in an online sample of 222 adult females, grouped by normal weight (BMI 18.5-24.9) and overweight/obese (BMI >25). Results indicate significantly lower mood and greater self-loathing in the overweight/obese group. …”
