We conducted a questionnaire survey among Japanese female students to explore the influence of a desire for thinness and dietary behaviors on the development of eating disorders.
Self-reported measures of socio-demographic characteristics, body weight perception, height and weight, and dietary and exercise behavior were completed by 631 female university students at 6 universities in Kyoto, Japan.
Many students had a desire for thinness (underweight students, 51.7 %; normal-weight students, 88.8 %), whereas ideal weight and body mass index were lower in the students with a desire for thinness than the students without a desire for thinness, and were also lower in the underweight students than the normal-weight students. The eating attitude test (EAT-26) scores of underweight students with a desire for thinness were higher than those of the normal-weight students with a desire for thinness. As a result of a logistic regression analysis, underweight, desire for thinness, and experience with weight control were positively associated with eating problems. Further, the association of eating problems increased along with the increase in the number of factors (underweight, desire for thinness, and experience with weight control).
These results indicate that underweight females have strong associations with eating problems.
我们对日本女学生进行了问卷调查，以探讨对苗条的渴望和饮食行为对饮食失调发展的影响。
在日本京都的 6 所大学，由 631 名女大学生完成了社会人口特征、体重感知、身高和体重以及饮食和运动行为的自我报告测量。
许多学生渴望苗条（体重不足的学生为 51.7%；体重正常的学生为 88.8%），而有苗条愿望的学生的理想体重和体重指数低于无苗条愿望的学生，体重不足的学生也低于体重正常的学生。有苗条愿望的体重不足学生的饮食态度测试（EAT-26）得分高于有苗条愿望的体重正常学生。通过逻辑回归分析，体重不足、对苗条的渴望和控制体重的经历与饮食问题呈正相关。此外，随着因素（体重不足、对苗条的渴望和控制体重的经历）数量的增加，饮食问题的关联也随之增加。
这些结果表明，体重不足的女性与饮食问题密切相关。
