目标 Pike & Rodin(1991)的研究发现,饮食失调的青春期女孩的母亲对体重的担忧和对家庭功能的不满程度更高。本研究试图通过检查母亲对年轻时体重和节食问题的影响来扩展这项研究。 设计 高和低饮食限制的女孩和他们的母亲的横截面比较。 方法 两组20名11岁的女孩和她们的母亲完成了对饮食限制、体型偏好、自我感知、家庭功能以及体重和身高的评估。 结果 高克制女孩的母亲在目前的节食水平上与对照母亲没有差异,但确实报告了更多的餐间零食和禁食。此外,她们认为自己女儿的吸引力明显低于其他母亲。此外,有一个高度克制的女儿的家庭得分显着较低的感知家庭凝聚力,组织和道德宗教的重点。 结论 与派克和罗丹的研究结果相似,支持母亲在传递有关体重,形状和外观的文化价值观中可能发挥的作用。重要的是,它还将早期节食置于对家庭功能不满的更广泛背景下。
OBJECTIVES Research by Pike & Rodin (1991) found higher levels of weight concern and dissatisfaction with family functioning in mothers of eating disordered adolescent girls. The present study sought to extend this research by examining the maternal influences on weight and dieting concerns at a younger age. DESIGN A cross-sectional comparison of high and low dietary restraint girls and their mothers was used. METHODS Two groups of 20 11-year-old girls and their mothers completed assessments of dietary restraint, body shape preference, self-perception, family functioning and body weight and height. RESULTS Mothers of high restraint girls did not differ from comparison mothers in their current level of dieting, but did report more between-meal snacking and fasting. In addition, they rated their daughters' attractiveness significantly lower than the other mothers. Furthermore, families with a highly restrained daughter scored significantly lower on perceived family cohesion, organization and moral-religious emphasis. CONCLUSIONS The parallel with the findings of Pike & Rodin supports the role that mothers may play in the transmission of cultural values regarding weight, shape and appearance. Importantly, it also places early dieting within a wider context of dissatisfaction with family functioning.
