To determine the prevalence rates of abnormal eating attitudes and associated risk factors among female Japanese college students.
The study population was 7812 female college students in Tokyo. They were asked to fill out the Japanese version of EAT-26 and lifestyle questionnaires.
5.1% of the subjects had a total EAT-26 score above the cutoff point (>20). Multiple regression analysis found the most important factors associated with abnormal eating attitudes were distorted body image, fewer sleeping hours, irregular meal habits, cigarette smoking and more exercise.
The prevalence of abnormal eating attitudes among female college students in this study was lower than that of Japanese female high school students and lower than that reported for college students of both western and non-western countries. Our results suggest that body image dissatisfaction may be the most important factor associated with abnormal eating behavior.
确定日本女大学生中异常饮食态度的患病率及相关风险因素。
研究对象为东京的7812名女大学生。她们被要求填写日文版的EAT - 26问卷和生活方式问卷。
5.1%的研究对象EAT - 26总分高于临界值（>20）。多元回归分析发现，与异常饮食态度相关的最重要因素是身体意象扭曲、睡眠时间较少、饮食习惯不规律、吸烟和运动量较大。
本研究中女大学生异常饮食态度的患病率低于日本女高中生，也低于西方国家和非西方国家大学生的报告患病率。我们的结果表明，对身体意象的不满可能是与异常饮食行为相关的最重要因素。
