Abstract

Eating psychopathology symptoms are common in athletes; however, it is unknown which symptoms are detected and to what extent by sport professionals. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a self-report questionnaire to explore which features of eating psychopathology in athletes are detected by sport professionals, and how observation of these symptoms might vary. Thirty-one questions were developed and 232 sport professionals (56% male) participated in the study. Exploratory Factor Analysis revealed a 20-item, five-factor solution (Negative Affect, Dieting Practices, Fear of Eating in Social Contexts, Bingeing and Purging, and Compulsive Exercise). Participants most frequently reported observing athletes’ dieting practices, while symptoms of a fear of eating in social contexts were observed least frequently. This study has developed and preliminarily tested the Athlete Eating Psychopathology Observation Questionnaire (AEPOQ), which now requires further validation. The findings provide important directions for education initiatives with sport professionals regarding identification of eating psychopathology symptoms.
体育专业人员饮食精神病理观察问卷的编制与初步评价
饮食精神病理症状在运动员中很常见;然而,目前尚不清楚体育专业人员检测到哪些症状以及检测到何种程度。本研究旨在开发和评估一份自我报告问卷,以探索运动员饮食精神病理的哪些特征被体育专业人员发现,以及这些症状的观察结果如何变化。共开发了31个问题,232名体育专业人士(56%为男性)参与了研究。探索性因素分析揭示了一个20项、5个因素的解决方案(负面影响、节食习惯、在社交场合害怕进食、暴饮暴食和强迫性运动)。参与者最常报告观察运动员的节食习惯,而在社交场合害怕进食的症状最不常被观察到。本研究编制并初步测试了运动员饮食精神病理观察问卷(AEPOQ),有待进一步验证。研究结果为体育专业人员在饮食精神病理症状识别方面的教育举措提供了重要方向。
