“…It is important to note that athletes with disordered eating symptomology; will rarely selfidentify due to the secrecy, shame, denial, and fear of reprisal (Currie & Morse, 2005;Johnson et al, 1999;Ryan, 1992). Therefore, integrating eating disorder screening in conjunction with PPE may help identify those athletes presented with elevated risk.…”

“…The decision to exclude an athlete from training or competition can result in acute emotional decompensation and a need for emotional support or even an urgent evaluation by a mental health clinician 56.

Mental health emergencies require a rapid, effective response. We searched the literature on mental health emergencies in athletes and found five papers. None of these addressed elite athletes. Nonetheless, common mental health emergencies may present in the sports environment and may place the athlete and others at risk. Sports teams and organisations should anticipate which emergencies are likely and how medical and support staff can best respond. Responses should be based on general non-sporting guidelines. We stress the importance of clinicians following standard procedures.

ResumenEl presente artículo presenta los resultados obtenidos tras desarrollar y validar el Cuestionario de Imagen Corporal, con una muestra de 395 personas pertenecientes a población clínica o general. El instrumento permite valorar la posible existencia de trastornos de la conducta alimentaria relacionados con la bulimia, anorexia, obesidad, vigorexia y ortorexia. Todos los factores y la escala en su conjunto mostraron adecuada consistencia interna y el análisis factorial confirmó la multidimensionalidad de la escala y por tanto, avala su validez de constructo. Los resultados obtenidos de la aplicación del instrumento sugieren que la existencia de antecedentes personales o familiares relacionados con estos trastornos o con ansiedad o depresión, incrementan la probabilidad de presentar problemas de conducta alimentaria. Ello es consistente con la literatura y apoya su validez experimental. AbstractThis paper presents the results obtained after developing and validating the Body Image Questionnaire with a sample of 395 persons belonging to clinical or general population. The instrument allows assessing probable eating disorders related to bulimia, anorexia, obesity, orthorexia, and bigorexia. All the factors and total scale showed good internal consistency. Factor analysis confirmed the multidimensionality of the scale and therefore, its construct validity. The results of the instrument implementation suggest that the existence of personal or family history related to these disorders or to anxiety or depression, increase the likelihood of developing eating disorders. This is consistent with the literature and supports the experimental validity of the measure.
