there is a growing concern in the appearance of eating disorders in athletes, especially those that practice sports grouped into weight categories. This affects the way athletes eat, using frequently unhealthy strategies to control weight, especially during the pre-competition period.
this study analyses the prevalence of contact sports athletes in developing eating disorders, and how a controlled diet plan can reduce this risk. At the same time, it evaluates the use of the EAT-26 questionnaire to detect such disorders.
a randomized frequency study was performed on 244 athletes (158 men, 86 women), who were separated into two groups: those that followed a diet plan given by a nutritionist, and a control group on a free diet. The athletes completed an EAT-26 questionnaire while participating in the University-level National Championships.
the free diet group scored significantly higher on the questionnaire. Also, the female athletes controlled diet group scored significantly higher than their male counterparts.
the results of the questionnaire indicate that an adequate nutritional program circumvents the use of unhealthy habits to control body weight and therefore avoids developing particular eating disorders. EAT-26 questionnaire does not seem the most appropriate tool to detect these disorders.
运动员中饮食失调现象日益受到关注，尤其是那些从事按体重分级项目的运动员。这影响了运动员的饮食方式，他们常采用不健康的策略来控制体重，尤其是在赛前阶段。
本研究分析了接触性运动项目运动员饮食失调的患病率，以及控制饮食计划如何降低这种风险。同时，评估使用EAT - 26问卷来检测此类失调情况。
对244名运动员（158名男性，86名女性）进行了一项随机频率研究，这些运动员被分为两组：一组遵循营养师提供的饮食计划，另一组为自由饮食的对照组。运动员们在参加大学级全国锦标赛期间完成了一份EAT - 26问卷。
自由饮食组在问卷上的得分显著更高。此外，女性运动员控制饮食组的得分显著高于男性对应组。
问卷结果表明，适当的营养计划可避免使用不健康习惯来控制体重，从而避免发展出特定的饮食失调问题。EAT - 26问卷似乎并非检测这些失调情况的最合适工具。
