目的：本研究的目的是确定饮食失调行为是否在地理上聚集在美国高中生中。方法：我们的样本包括15,349名高中生，他们对1999年的青年危险行为研究（YRBS）做出了回应。调查中的体重控制和饮食失调行为包括在过去30天内节食、锻炼、禁食、使用减肥药和清除以控制体重。结果：在所有参与者中，调整后的分析显示，有任何体重控制或饮食失调症状，严重限制，节食，锻炼和减肥药的使用都显示出显着的聚类（p <0.05）。05）。清除没有显着集群县。聚集的幅度是更强的女学生比男student.Conclusion：在美国高中生的体重控制和饮食失调行为的显着聚类证实了饮食失调的社会传染效应的证据。(c)出版社：Wiley Periodicals，Inc.（匕首）。
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine if eating disorder behaviors geographically clustered among U.S high school students.Method: Our sample consisted of 15,349 high school students who responded to the 1999 Youth Risk Behavior Study (YRBS). Weight control and eating disordered behaviors under investigation included dieting, exercising, fasting, using diet pills, and purging to control weight in the last 30 days. We calculated pairwise odds ratios (PWORs) to determine the degree of within-county clustering.Results: Among all participants, adjusted analyses revealed that having any weight control or eating disorder symptom, severe restricting, dieting, exercising, and diet pill use each showed significant clustering (p < . 05). Purging did not significantly cluster by county. The magnitude of clustering was stronger for female students than male students.Conclusion: The significant clustering of weight control and eating disorder behavior in U.S. high school students confirms evidence of a social contagion effect of eating disorders.
