This study evaluated the moderating effects of sexual orientation and exercise status on measures of body image and eating disturbance in a sample of men.
One hundred and thirty-four men completed measures designed to index a range of body image facets (ideals, actual, partner's preference, overall dissatisfaction), eating disturbance (restrictive and bulimic levels), and overall self-esteem.
There were few significant effects as a function of exercise status or sexual orientation. Bodybuilders were more satisfied on a global measure of body image and had a higher ideal and actual upper torso size rating. Gay men had a smaller actual upper torso rating than heterosexual men, but ideal size upper torso did not differ as a function of sexual orientation.
Findings are discussed in terms of methodological limits of previous work and future examinations of moderating factors for body image and eating disturbance in men.
本研究评估了性取向和运动状况对男性样本中身体意象和饮食失调测量指标的调节作用。
134名男性完成了旨在对一系列身体意象方面（理想、实际、伴侣偏好、总体不满）、饮食失调（限制和暴食程度）以及总体自尊进行索引的测量。
几乎没有因运动状况或性取向而产生的显著影响。健美运动员在身体意象的总体测量上更满意，并且对理想和实际的上半身尺寸评分更高。男同性恋者的实际上身评分比异性恋男性小，但理想上身尺寸并未因性取向而有所不同。
根据先前研究的方法局限性以及未来对男性身体意象和饮食失调调节因素的研究对结果进行了讨论。
