Mindful Bites: Eating in the Present Moment
Mindful Bites: Eating in the Present Moment. A Study Within the PNRR 10 ON FOODS PARTNERSHIP
연구 개요

정황
상세 설명
This study investigates the short-term effects of a two-week app-based mindful eating intervention delivered through MyPocketHealth. The intervention is designed to promote greater awareness of eating experiences, including sensory perception, emotional states, and behavioral patterns related to food consumption. Participants receive daily training exercises and short audio modules tailored to the principles of mindfulness applied to eating.
Throughout the 14-day program, participants complete daily momentary assessments assessing mood, attention, and eating-related awareness. Additional pre- and post-intervention questionnaires evaluate psychological well-being (WHO-5), cognitive failures (CFQ), eating behavior styles (DEBQ), and mindful eating skills (MEQ). Dietary habits, intake of specific food groups and dispositional mindfulness are also assessed to explore possible changes associated with the intervention.
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate changes in psychological well-being and mindful eating from baseline to the end of the intervention. Secondary aims include assessing changes in cognitive functioning, eating behavior patterns, and day-to-day fluctuations in mood and attentional engagement with the training materials. Group differences are explored across three experimental conditions, which vary in the level of content emphasis. Group 1 listens to general food-related podcast (MEE), group 2 listens to a podcast discussing theoretical information about mindful eating (MET), while group 3 listens to a podcast that, besides theoretical information, also offers daily practices (MEP).

Mood assessment
기간: Immediately before and after each daily session over the 14-day period
|
Mood was assessed daily throughout the 14-day intervention period using five single-item Likert scales (1-10).
Participants rated their momentary levels of stress, mental clarity, calmness, happiness, and restlessness.

Mindful Eating Awareness
기간: At baseline and at the end of the 14-day intervention period
|
To assess Mindful Eating Awareness, we used the Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ), a tool developed to measure the degree of awareness during eating behavior.
In the Italian abbreviated version (Clementi, Casu, & Gremigni, 2017), the instrument consists of 20 items rated on a 4-point Likert scale (from 1 = 'Never' to 4 = 'Always') and is divided into two subscales: awareness and recognition.

WHO-5 Well-Being Index score
기간: At baseline and at the end of the 14-day intervention period
|
Well-being was assessed using the WHO-5 Well-Being Index, a self-report questionnaire that measures subjective psychological well-being over the previous two weeks.
The scale consists of five positively worded items rated on a 6-point Likert scale, with higher scores indicating greater well-being.

Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) score
기간: At baseline and at the end of the 14-day intervention period
|
Cognitive efficiency was evaluated using the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ), a self-report measure assessing the frequency of everyday cognitive lapses over the previous two weeks. The questionnaire consists of 25 items, each describing common cognitive slips involving attention, memory, or action execution (e.g., forgetting why one entered a room, losing focus during tasks, or misplacing objects). Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 ("Never") to 4 ("Very often"), with higher scores indicating more frequent cognitive failures. |
