摘要:In this paper, a generalized version of the inverted exponential distribution called the weighted inverted exponential distribution is introduced. Several properties of the weighted inverted exponential distribution are studied and derived. In application part the relationship between induced psychological stress, HPA axis and eating behaviour in Binge Eating Disorder (BED) has been discussed. The Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) was applied in obese participants with (n = 8) and without BED (n=8), and normal weight (NW) controls (n=8). At baseline desire to binge was significantly higher amo ng the BED group. While the TSST induced an increase in Cortisol levels, a blunted Cortisol response was observed in the BED group
