AB  - OBJECTIVES: Binge-eating disorder (BED) is characterized by recurrent binge 
      eating episodes, associated eating disorder and general psychopathology, and 
      commonly occurs in obese individuals. Explicit self-esteem and explicit weight 
      bias have been linked to BED, while little is known about implicit cognitive 
      processes such as implicit self-esteem and implicit weight bias. METHODS: Obese 
      participants with BED and an individually matched obese only group (OB) and 
      normal weight control group (CG; each N = 26) were recruited from the community 
      to examine group differences and associations in explicit and implicit 
      self-esteem and weight bias, as well as the impact of implicit cognitive 
      processes on global eating disorder psychopathology. Implicit cognitive processes 
      were assessed using the Implicit Association Test. RESULTS: Significantly lower 
      explicit self-esteem, as well as higher exposure to explicit weight bias, 
      compared to CG and OB was found in the BED group. All groups showed positive 
      implicit self-esteem, however, it was significantly lower in BED when compared to 
      CG. BED and CG demonstrated equally high implicit weight bias whereas OB did not. 
      Explicit and implicit measures were not significantly correlated. Global eating 
      disorder psychopathology was predicted by explicit and implicit self-esteem. 
      CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study add to the importance of implicit 
      self-esteem and implicit weight bias beyond explicit measures in BED, while both 
      were previously shown to be associated with onset and maintenance of BED. In 
      conclusion, implicit cognitive processes should be focused on in interventions 
      for BED to investigate their impact on psychological treatments.
