This study examined the influence of peer context on the relationship between body dissatisfaction and eating pathology in women and men.
Secondary analyses were conducted using survey data from a large community sample of women and men (N = 2,060).
The frequency of friend comments on weight and diet moderated the relationship between body dissatisfaction and eating pathology such that more frequent comments strengthened the relationship between body dissatisfaction and eating pathology in women. This effect was not significant in analyses of men. Instead, friend comments were directly related to eating pathology in men.
Both women and men may benefit from peer-led interventions, with the greatest potential benefits for women with high body dissatisfaction, consistent with results from selective peer-led prevention programs in sororities.
本研究考察了同伴环境对女性和男性体像不满与饮食病理学之间关系的影响。
使用来自大型社区女性和男性样本(N=2060)的调查数据进行了二次分析。
朋友对体重和饮食的评论频率调节了体像不满与饮食病理学之间的关系,即更频繁的评论加强了女性体像不满与饮食病理学之间的关系。在对男性的分析中,这一效应并不显著。相反,朋友的评论与男性的饮食病理学直接相关。
同伴主导的干预措施可能对女性和男性都有益,对于体像不满程度较高的女性可能具有最大的潜在益处,这与姐妹会中选择性同伴主导的预防计划的结果一致。
