OBJECTIVE
To identify the association between loneliness and eating disorder symptomatology among a national sample of U.S. college students during COVID-19.
PARTICIPANTS
Cross-sectional data from the 2020-2021 Healthy Minds Study ( = 96,645) were analyzed.
METHODS
Loneliness was measured using the UCLA 3-item Loneliness Scale and eating disorder symptomology was measured using the SCOFF questionnaire. Multiple modified Poisson regression analyses were conducted, adjusting for confounding variables.
RESULTS
Greater loneliness was associated with both a positive eating disorder screen (risk ratio [RR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-1.10) and greater number of eating disorder symptoms (RR 1.07, 95% CI 1.06-1.08). Gender modified this relationship, and men who endorsed greater loneliness had higher risk of eating disorder symptomatology compared to women.
CONCLUSIONS
Loneliness during the COVID-19 pandemic was associated with a greater risk of eating disorder symptomatology among college students. Findings underscore the need for social support and eating disorders programming on college campuses.
目的
确定在新冠疫情期间美国大学生全国样本中孤独感与饮食失调症状之间的关联。
参与者
分析了2020 - 2021年健康心灵研究的横断面数据（n = 96,645）。
方法
使用加州大学洛杉矶分校3项孤独感量表测量孤独感，使用SCOFF问卷测量饮食失调症状。进行了多项修正泊松回归分析，并对混杂变量进行了调整。
结果
孤独感越强，饮食失调筛查呈阳性的可能性越大（风险比[RR] 1.09，95%置信区间[CI] 1.09 - 1.10），饮食失调症状数量也越多（RR 1.07，95% CI 1.06 - 1.08）。性别改变了这种关系，与女性相比，孤独感更强的男性出现饮食失调症状的风险更高。
结论
新冠疫情期间的孤独感与大学生饮食失调症状的风险增加有关。研究结果强调了大学校园提供社会支持和饮食失调相关项目的必要性。
