“…This percentage is higher than rates reported for athletes in Norway ( Martinsen and Sundgot-Borgen, 2013 ) and Spain ( Pérez Recio et al, 1992 ; Toro et al, 2005 ). However, and similar to that observed for elite Spanish athletes using the CHAD (eating habits in athletes) questionnaire ( Dosil Díaz et al, 2012 ), the breakdown by gender showed a prevalence rate of 7.6% for females and 2.5% for males. Female athletes were thus three times more likely to have ED symptoms than their male counterparts with recent reports from international studies of a higher prevalence of EDs among female athletes ( Bratland-Sanda and Sundgot-Borgen, 2013 ; Giel et al, 2016 ; Reel et al, 2016 ).…”

“…A later study found that 11.4% of young elite Spanish female athletes were at risk for EDs ( Toro et al, 2005 ). More recently, Dosil Díaz et al (2012) reported a risk rate of 6.8% for Spanish male and female athletes aged from 12 to 52 years.…”

“… Anderson et al (2012) attributed EDs in sport to a combination of sociocultural pressures and sports-specific expectations and demands ( Petrie and Greanleaf, 2012 ; Fortes et al, 2015 ; Giel et al, 2016 ). To our knowledge, the last study to analyze the prevalence of EDs among Spanish athletes was published in 2012 ( Dosil Díaz et al, 2012 ) and no studies to date have explored the associations between ED symptoms and body weight pressures in this setting.…”

Eating Disorder Symptoms in Elite Spanish Athletes: Prevalence and Sport-Specific Weight Pressures

2021

We determined the prevalence of eating disorder (ED) symptoms among elite Spanish athletes from a broad range of sports and levels of competition and examined the associations between the presence of symptoms and perceived sport-specific weight pressures. We surveyed 646 elite athletes (16.7 ± 4.4 years; 51.08% females) representing 33 sports from top-division teams and two elite athlete training centers in Catalonia. Based on the results of the Eating Attitudes Test-26 responses, 5.1% of athletes (7.6% of females and 2.5% of males) were at risk of EDs. The highest rates of ED symptoms were observed in male endurance athletes and female esthetic athletes. Competition level was not a risk factor. The only gender differences in the presence of ED symptoms by competing level were observed in athletes competing at the national level. Female athletes with ED symptoms scored higher on the two subscales of the Spanish version of the Weight Pressures in Sport (WPS) tool: coach and sport-specific pressures and pressures from teammates and due to uniform. Male athletes with ED symptoms scored higher on the pressures due to uniform subscale. Finally, symptomatic female but not male athletes competing at international and national levels also perceived greater sport-specific weight pressures.

In a social and sports world dominated by weight-centred beliefs and highly exigent and gendered athletic and beauty body standards, the vulnerability for eating pathology, i.e., disordered eating and eating disorders (EDs), is elevated among women athletes. The aim of this study was to explore body image facets and ED risk among female athletes in masculinised sports such as soccer. Forty-five federated amateur female soccer players from Spain participated in this study, voluntarily complying with an extensive evaluation protocol on attitudes towards body and appearance and eating practises. The participants overall reported self-representations of their bodies that corresponded to their reality as athletes, but their body ideals were also more demanding in terms of low fat and muscularity, in association with the functionality of their body and the physical demands of their athletic activity. Despite having a fairly high positive body image and body satisfaction, they also expressed negative attitudes towards their bodies. Around 2 out of 10 players were at risk of suffering from an ED. Players with negative attitudes towards their bodies had an odd 12 times likely to develop an ED compared to those with lower self-devaluation, after adjusting for BMI and body perceptions (OR = 12.3, p < 0.01). On the contrary, players who appreciate their bodies and hold a positive body image had an odd 83% lower to suffer from eating pathology, after adjusting for BMI and body satisfaction (OR = 0.17, p < 0.05). Our findings support the healthy and protective role of positive body image in sports contexts. Body attitudes should be addressed in preventive and therapeutic efforts for reducing the prevalence of EDs in women's sports, within both a “negative” and a “positive” paradigm of body image.

“…Como cada modalidade esportiva demanda características específicas para a composição e formato do corpo do atleta, estudos apontam (Bosi, Oliveira, Vieira & Vigário, 2003;Díaz, Ceballos, Ramisa & Fernández, 2012;Krentz & Warschburger, 2011Silva & Gomes 2012;Tan et al, 2014) que esportes que supervalorizam a estética e o baixo peso corporal, inclusive utilizando-os como critérios para participação e obtenção de bons resultados em competiçõescomo acontece, por exemplo, na ginástica artísticatêm sido indicados como os de maior incidência de comportamentos alimentares de risco, bem como de transtornos do comportamento alimentar. Tal fato é confirmado nos estudos de Bortoleto, Bellotto e Costa (2007) e de , quando apontam que a ginástica artística é um esporte que exige do atleta uma composição corporal específica, pois a forma e a aparência dos atletas são extremamente importantes e, por isso, as preocupações e as exigências estéticas frequentemente levam os ginastas a desenvolverem hábitos alimentares inadequados.…”

Esportes que supervalorizam a estética e o baixo peso corporal são indicados como os com mais incidência de comportamentos alimentares de risco. Diante disto, investigou-se o impacto do esporte competitivo na escolha alimentar de atletas de ginástica artística masculina e, para tanto, foram entrevistados quatro ginastas adultos do gênero masculino. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, com o uso das narrativas como abordagem metodológica. As entrevistas foram obtidas por meio de questões abertas e analisadas à luz da análise de conteúdo, evidenciando dois núcleos temáticos: “regras e estética” e “alimento como merecimento”. Os resultados indicam que as escolhas alimentares destes atletas no período competitivo, são desprovidas de prazer, norteadas pela preocupação com a estética, pelo controle exercido pelo técnico e por autorregras. Após a competição, as escolhas aparecem relacionadas ao prazer, livre de regras e vistas como recompensa. Portanto, conclui-se a vulnerabilidade deste grupo às escolhas alimentares prejudiciais à saúde.
