本研究探讨了实现瘦美理想的社会文化压力、身体不适和饮食失调症状之间的关系。参与者是来自智利北方阿里卡的437名13-18岁的智利少女。结果显示,社会代理人的感知压力之间的显着关联要瘦,并存在中断的饮食态度和行为。与饮食和节食相关的广告、言语信息和社会情境的感知影响是饮食失调症状的最强预测因子。广告的影响也是身体形象困扰的最强预测因素。年龄差异出现在感知的社会文化压力是薄,与年龄较大的参与者报告更高的社会文化压力,以实现苗条的美丽理想。本文提供了有关身体不适和相关干扰的信息,这是一种在非西方国家很少研究的现象,但具有重要的健康意义。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
This study explored the relationships between perceived sociocultural pressure to fulfill the thin beauty ideal, body distress, and the presence of eating disorder symptoms. Participants were 437 Chilean adolescent girls from Arica, northern Chile, aged 13-18. Results showed significant associations between perceived pressure from social agents to be thin and the presence of disrupted eating attitudes and behavior. The perceived influence of advertising, verbal messages and social situations related to eating and dieting emerged as the strongest predictors of eating disorders symptoms. Influence of advertising was also the strongest predictor of body image distress. Age differences emerged in perceived sociocultural pressure to be thin, with older participants reporting higher sociocultural pressure to fulfill the slender beauty ideal. This paper provides information about body distress and associated disturbances, a phenomenon which has seldom been studied in non-Western countries, but which has important health implications.
