Previous research has found that mass media influence and loneliness relate to disordered eating behaviors in women, but little is known about this relation in men. The present study examined the relations among disordered eating patterns, gender, mass media influence, and loneliness in male and female college students. Results of a stepwise regression revealed that disordered eating attitudes and behaviors (as measured by the Eating Attitudes Test-26) were predicted by mass media influence, gender, and loneliness, respectively. In the present study both male and female college students appear susceptible to developing disordered eating patterns. Clinicians may wish to address unrealistic comparisons to media and client interpersonal skills when designing treatment plans.
先前的研究发现，大众媒体的影响和孤独感与女性的饮食失调行为有关，但男性中这种关系鲜为人知。本研究考察了男女大学生中饮食失调模式、性别、大众媒体影响和孤独感之间的关系。逐步回归的结果表明，饮食失调态度和行为（通过饮食态度测试-26 进行衡量）分别由大众媒体的影响、性别和孤独感预测。在本研究中，男女大学生似乎都容易出现饮食失调模式。临床医生在设计治疗计划时可能希望针对与媒体的不切实际的比较和客户的人际交往技巧。
