Abstract
Eating disorders are one of the most frequent chronic diseases in adolescents and young women. In Mexico, percentages from 5 to 18% of risk eating behaviors have been found in samples of female university students (Unikel-Santoncini, et al., 2004). On the other hand, resilience is defined as a construct that includes certain phenomena that consist of the individual's adequate adaptation to traumatic situations, extreme deprivation, serious threats, or high stress (González-Arratia, 2008, in Camacho Valadez, 2016). This research examines the relationship between resilience and risk eating behaviors through the application of the EAT-26 and RESI-M instruments to 201 Mexican women, with an average age of 22 years. A Pearson Product Moment correlation analysis was performed, which showed that those women with higher levels of resilience showed less risk eating behaviors. It’s proposed to carry out the same study with younger populations, as well as with male participants.
期刊介绍:
La política editorial de la revista es publicar artículos sobre temas relevantes del comportamiento alimentario, como ciencia y profesión, que sean de interés y tengan impacto en esta área de conocimiento. La revista acepta para su publicación, artículos de investigación básica y aplicada, así como de carácter teórico o emprírico, sobre las principales disciplinas (psicología, psiquiatría, medicina, biología, nutrición, etc..) que signifiquen un avance en el área del comportamiento alimentario. Se publican artículos originales (investigaciones), artículos de revisión y casos clínicos Excepcionalmente se aceptarán trabajos teóricos; éstos deberán significar una contribución sobre el estado actual de alguno de los tópicos relacionados a la alimentación. Dentro de su proceso de revisión por pares (doble-ciego), cuenta con la participación de investigadores de alto nivel y probada calidad científica y metodológica para la crítica editorial de los manuscritos que recibe. La crítica editorial en la Revista Mexicana de Trastornos Alimentarios/Mexican Journal of Eating Disorders cumple dos finalidades: por un lado, hacer una recomendación debidamente fundamentada sobre la pertinencia de un manuscrito, y por otro, retroalimentar a los autores sobre la calidad del trabajo, indicando no sólo aciertos y fallas, sino describiendo, cuando se trate de fallas, los pasos que debería seguir el autor para corregirlas. Los textos presentados para su posible publicación estarán sujetos a la programación de la revista y a la evaluación que realicen los editores.
