目前的研究描述了4023名年龄在25岁到45岁之间的女性的详细饮食行为、节食行为以及对身材和体重的态度。这项调查是在网上进行的，参与者是通过国家配额抽样程序确定的。无序的饮食行为、极端的减肥措施以及对身材和体重的负面认知在这个年龄段的女性中得到了广泛的认可，而且并不局限于白人参与者。在没有厌食症或暴饮暴食史的女性中，31%的人报告曾为了控制体重而通便，74.5%的女性报告说，她们对身材和体重的担忧干扰了她们的幸福感。即使在没有进食障碍的女性中，控制体重的不健康方法和对身材和体重的负面态度也很普遍。需要制定有效的办法来处理这些不健康的行为和态度对妇女的总体福祉和职能的影响。
The current study describes detailed eating behaviors, dieting behaviors, and attitudes about shape and weight in 4,023 women ages 25 to 45. The survey was delivered on-line and participants were identified using a national quota-sampling procedure. Disordered eating behaviors, extreme weight loss measures, and negative cognitions about shape and weight were widely endorsed by women in this age group and were not limited to White participants. Thirty-one percent of women without a history of anorexia or binge eating reported having purged to control weight, and 74.5% of women reported that their concerns about shape and weight interfered with their happiness. Unhealthy approaches to weight control and negative attitudes about shape and weight are pervasive even among women without eating disorders. The development of effective approaches to address the impact of these unhealthy behaviors and attitudes on the general well-being and functioning of women is required.
