研究背景肥胖耻辱感会增加暴饮暴食，而对饮食失调（ED）的积极关注可能会增加饮食限制，这也会导致暴饮暴食和体重增加。在肥胖和ED患病率不断增加的背景下，探索社区对这些疾病的态度可能会发现新的变量，值得考虑在人口健康运动。本研究的目的是探讨社区感知的耻辱和相反的有利方面对饮食失调（艾德）患者的不同体重状态，并了解如何肥胖的个人的态度可能不同于那些非肥胖的个人。为此目的的数据来自与参加一般人口健康调查的个人的访谈。将患有神经性厌食症（AN）的体重不足女性、患有非典型进食障碍（NWED）的正常体重男性和患有暴食症（BED）的肥胖女性的影像呈现给三个随机选择的子样本，分别为n = 983、1033和1030。随后的问题，评估参与者的态度和信仰的人描述的小插曲和他们的饮食behaviors.Results66%的参与者谁回答肥胖床小插曲认为，会有歧视的人描述（主要是因为她的体重）。AN和NWED小插曲的相应数字分别为48%和35%。8.8%的受访者对AN小插曲和27.5%的受访者对NWED小插曲“偶尔”或更经常地报告了对减肥或增强身体形象的艾德行为的积极看法。积极关注艾德行为显着更有可能在肥胖的参与者（AN：15%;西北艾德：43%）。ConclusionThe研究结果支持综合艾德和肥胖预防计划，解决体重耻辱和社会可取性的艾德行为在脆弱的个人。
BackgroundObesity stigma has been shown to increase binge eating, whilst positive regard for eating disorders (EDs) may increase dietary restriction which can also lead to binge eating and weight gain. In the context of increasing prevalence of both obesity and EDs exploring community attitudes towards these illnesses may uncover new variables worthy of consideration in population health campaigns. The aim of the study was to explore community perceived stigma and conversely favourable regard toward eating disorder (ED) sufferers of varying weight status, and understand how the attitudes of obese individuals may differ from those of non-obese individuals. Data for this purpose were derived from interviews with individuals participating in a general population health survey. Vignettes of an underweight female with Anorexia Nervosa (AN), a normal weight male with an atypical eating disorder (NWED) and an obese female with Binge Eating Disorder (BED) were presented to three randomly selected sub-samples of n = 983, 1033 and 1030 respectively. Questions followed that assessed participants’ attitudes towards and beliefs about the person described in the vignette and their eating behaviours.ResultsSixty-six per cent of participants who responded to the obese BED vignette believed that there would be discrimination against the person described (primarily because of her weight). Corresponding figures were for the AN and NWED vignettes were 48% and 35%, respectively. A positive regard for weight-loss or body-image-enhancing ED behaviours was reported ‘occasionally’ or more often by 8.8% of respondents to the AN vignette and by 27.5% of respondents to the NWED vignette. Positive regard for ED behaviours was significantly more likely in obese participants (AN: 15%; NWED: 43%).ConclusionThe findings support integrated ED and obesity prevention programs that address weight stigma and the social desirability of ED behaviours in vulnerable individuals.
