Binge eating disorder and night eating syndrome: psychological and behavioral characteristics

Research into the psychological and behavioural features connected with night eating syndrome (NES) and binge eating disorder is presented. It is suggested that NES patients could be a subcategory among the obese. It is possible that a combination of night eating and binging, not night eating alone, is connected with higher levels of state anxiety.
