Abstract

Eighty participants with a mean BMI of 41.6 kg/m were assessed for chrononutrition and eating behavior.

  • Eating window midpoint is positively correlated with uncontrolled eating behaviors.
  • A negative correlation exists between eating window midpoint and eating self-efficacy.
  • Longer sleep duration and a later midpoint on free days are associated with lower eating self-efficacy.
  • Predominantly later energy consumption may negatively impact eating behavior.
