目的：研究竞技健美运动员、非竞技举重训练员和运动活跃的男子的身体形象和心理社会适应。方法：研究对象为三组各40名男子，对他们的身体成分和身体形象评价、投资和焦虑、饮食态度和社会自尊的多个方面进行评估。相对于其他两组，竞技健美运动员有更大的身体质量，由于无脂肪的身体质量。虽然团体在他们的情境身体形象不适方面没有差异，但竞技健美运动员和重量训练师对整体外观的评价更积极，并且在心理上对他们的身体外观进行了更多的投资。与积极控制组相比，两个举重组的男性对他们的上半身和肌肉张力更满意。竞技健美运动员报告更多的中躯干满意度比其他两组。竞争健美运动员也希望显着比对照组更重，并报告更高的社会自尊，但更大的饮食disturbance.Conclusions：研究结果表明，竞争健美运动员作为一个群体是不是更多的“肌肉畸形”比任何非竞争性的重量训练员或身体活跃的男子谁不训练的重量。
Objectives: To investigate body image and psychosocial adjustment among competitive bodybuilders, non-competitive weight trainers, and athletically active men.Methods: Participants were 40 men in each of the three groups who were assessed on body composition and multiple facets of body image evaluation, investment and anxiety, eating attitudes, and social self esteem.Results: Relative to the other two groups, competitive bodybuilders had greater body mass due to fat-free body mass. Although groups did not differ in their situational body image discomfort, competitive bodybuilders and weight trainers had a more positive global appearance evaluation and were more psychologically invested in their physical appearance. Compared with active controls, men in both weightlifting groups were more satisfied with their upper torso and muscle tone. Competitive bodybuilders reported more mid torso satisfaction than the other two groups. Competitive bodybuilders also wished to be significantly heavier than controls did and reported higher social self esteem but greater eating disturbance.Conclusions: The findings suggest that competitive bodybuilders as a group are not more "muscle dysmorphic'' than either non-competitive weight trainers or physically active men who do not train with weights.
