DEVELOPMENTAL TRAJECTORIES OF EXCESSIVE EXERCISE AND FASTING ACROSS THE MIDDLE SCHOOL YEARSDavis, Heather A. 01 January 2015 (has links)
Repeated excessive exercise (EE) fasting behavior, in the absence of binge eating and purging, are important eating disorder behaviors that are not captured by the current diagnostic system. Though they appear to be harmful and distressing for adults, little is known about these behaviors in youth. To begin to understand their development, I studied the course of the behaviors across the three years of middle school (n = 1,195). Both behaviors were present in middle school girls and boys, and youth progressed along different developmental trajectories of engagement in the behaviors. Youth involved in either behavior experienced elevated levels of depression and some forms of high-risk eating and thinness expectancies. Their distress levels did not differ from those of youth engaging in purging behavior or low levels of binge eating. EE and fasting behavior can be identified in the early stages of adolescence, youth differ in their developmental experience of these behaviors, and they are associated with significant distress very early in development.

Det farliga hälsoberoendet : När de förebyggande tankarna på hälsa blir en sjukdomNyström, Frida January 2017 (has links)
Hälsa är viktigt för många människor och uppnås vanligen genom regelbunden träning och en bra kost. Men för vissa kan det gå över styr och istället för att uppnå en god psykisk och fysisk hälsa finns det dem som drabbas av ätstörningen ortorexi. Syftet med denna undersökningen var att se om det fanns någon skillnad mellan män och kvinnors risk att drabbas av ortorexi samt om olika relationsstatus och social umgängeskrets med olika högt hälso- och träningsrelaterande intresse och beteende kan öka risken att drabbas av ortorexi. Åttiotvå deltagare svarade på en enkät som bestod av Doninins ORTO-15 samt egenkonstruerade frågor. Resultatet visade att det inte fanns någon signifikant skillnad mellan könen gällande att visa tecken på ortorexi men att relationsstatus och att den sociala umgängeskretsen med högt hälso- och träningsrelaterande intresse och beteende hade en betydelse för risk att drabbas av ortorexi. Varför det inte fanns någon skillnad mellan könen kan tänkas bero på att träning och hälsa vänder sig till alla människor oavsett kön och därav påverkas både män och kvinnor lika mycket.

Personliga tränares upplevelser om möjligheterna att upptäcka och påverka ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden hos sina klienterMoreno, Jackie, Lövberg, Magdalena January 2023 (has links)
Bakgrund: Träningsvanor som går till överdrift riskerar att leda till allvarliga negativa hälsokonsekvenser och utbredningen av dessa ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden ökar. Personliga tränare (PT) har en potentiell möjlighet att upptäcka samt påverka utövare vars träningsbeteenden föranleder en destruktiv inverkan på hälsan. Syfte: Syftet med föreliggande studie är att beskriva hur PT på gym i Sverige upplever att de kan upptäcka ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden och påverka personer som befinner sig i riskgrupp. Metod: En kvalitativ studie baserad på fem semistrukturerade intervjuer med PT på svenska gym. Datamaterialet transkriberades och analyserades med en induktiv konventionell innehållsanalys där meningsbärande enheter identifierades och kondenserades för att belysa och presentera det essentiella innehållet. Resultat: Ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden beskrivs som överdrivna, kontrollerande, extrema och tvångsmässiga. Samtal med klienterna är en vanlig metod som PT använder för att identifiera och förebygga ohälsosamma träningsvanor. Klienternas individuella och unika förutsättningar försvårar dock PTs möjligheter att fatta rätt beslut. PTs moral, synen på sin ansvarsroll samt klienternas benägenhet att kommunicera uppriktigt är samverkande faktorer som påverkar PTs möjlighet att upptäcka och åtgärda riskbeteenden. Deltagarna anser sig inte alltid ha det primära ansvaret för klienternas hälsoutfall men uttrycker önskemål om tydligare riktlinjer som konkretiserar ett hälsofrämjande arbete med personer i riskgrupp. Slutsats: PT som yrkesgrupp har i varierad utsträckning möjlighet att upptäcka ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden på gym. Vilka strategier som tillämpas varierar med anledning av bristfälliga riktlinjer på svenska gymkedjor. Studiens fynd visar ett behov av evidensbaserade handlingsprogram som konkretiserar ansvarsfördelningen och skapar tydliga riktlinjer för att reducera ohälsosamma träningsbeteenden och främja folkhälsan. / <p>Betyg i Ladok 240111.</p>

Motivation behind young women's excessive exercise : A qualitative study from a Self-determination perspectiveJohansson, Karin, Sjöbom, Valeria January 2015 (has links)
Exercise is an important part of well-being. However, when performed excessively, it can lead to negative consequences such as anxiety, depression and feelings of guilt. This study aimed to qualitatively investigate what motivational regulations, defined by the Self-determination theory, that may provide an insight into why young women engage in excessive exercise. Data from seven participants was analyzed through a thematic analysis and resulted in four themes: Exercise affected by social influence, Ambivalence toward the amount of exercise, Benefits of exercise and Exercise affecting the sense of self. All of the motivational regulations belonged to the extrinsic type of motivation, ranging from external to integrated regulation, with social influence and health benefits being the most frequently mentioned reasons for exercise. Also, the informants were able to explain why they exercise, but less so in regard to the amount of exercise. / Träning är en förutsättning för välbefinnande. När träning utförs i en överdriven mängd kan det dock leda till negativa konsekvenser som ångest, depression och skuldkänslor. Syftet med denna studie var att kvalitativt undersöka vilka motivationsregleringar definierade av Självbestämmande teori som kan ge en inblick i varför unga kvinnor tränar i en överdriven omfattning. Materialet från sju deltagare analyserades genom en tematisk analys och resulterade i fyra teman: Social påverkan på träning, Ambivalens till träningsmängden, Fördelar med träning och Träning påverkar uppfattningen om sig själv. Alla motivationsregleringar tillhörde den yttre typen av motivation och sträckte sig från extern till integrerad reglering, där social påverkan och hälsofördelar var de mest frekvent nämnda anledningarna till träning. Informanterna kunde ge en förklaring till varför de tränar, men inte avseende deras träningsmängd.

Perfil de atividade física em pacientes com transtornos alimentares / Physical activity in patient with eating disordersTeixeira, Paula Costa 04 December 2014 (has links)
Há evidências que associam a prática de atividade física (AF) nos transtornos alimentares (TA) como método compensatório na busca do controle do peso e apetite. O objetivo da pesquisa foi determinar o perfil de AF dos pacientes atendidos no Programa de Transtornos Alimentares (AMBULIM) do Instituto de Psiquiatria da Faculdade de Medicina da USP. A amostra foi composta por pacientes com diagnóstico de anorexia nervosa (AN, n=27), bulimia nervosa (BN, n=31) e um grupo controle (GC, n=13). A coleta de dados envolveu avaliar as variáveis da AF por meio de uma medida objetiva (acelerômetro), atividades físicas autorreferidas, e o grau de compromisso com o exercício. Variáveis nutricionais e psicológicas foram mensuradas por meio de escalas de atitudes alimentares, de insatisfação corporal, depressão e ansiedade para análise de associações. A comparação entre os grupos de AN, BN e GC, foi feita por meio de Kruskal Wallis. Para analisar as prevalências e os possíveis fatores relacionados à prática de AF foram realizados o teste Quiquadrado, a razão de prevalências (RP) e a medida de Odds Ratio (OR). Nas variáveis antropométricas, nutricionais e psicológicas o grupo controle apresentou resultados adequados, dentro das faixas limítrofes à saúde, com baixo risco para TA, níveis de depressão e de ansiedade em comparação aos grupos de TA (p<0,05). Na medida objetiva, a BN apresentou o maior tempo de duração na AF leve, em comparação aos demais grupos (p<0,001). Nas associações de RP, ao assumir uma nota de corte pela mediana, aquelas que permaneceram na AF leve no acelerômetro, por um tempo superior a 973 minutos apresentaram 2,1 vezes a prevalência de ter BN, quando comparado com quem ficou um tempo igual ou inferior; na AN a medida de risco não foi significativa. Limitações da pesquisa exigem cautela na observação dos resultados. A prática compulsiva, baseada no escore total do grau de compromisso com o exercício, não interferiu na prevalência de TA na amostra estudada. Também não foram encontradas associações entre a prática de AF e as variáveis antropométricas, nutricionais e psicológicas, exceto a insatisfação corporal. Aquelas que apresentaram insatisfação corporal tiveram 3,4 vezes mais chances de praticar AF. É necessário aprofundar os estudos e buscar instrumentos validados que auxiliem na investigação da prática excessiva e/ou compulsiva nos TA / Evidence shows that physical activity (PA) for eating disorder (ED) individuals is a compensatory behavior seeking weight and appetite control. The purpose of this research was to determine the PA of the patients from the Eating Disorders Program (AMBULIM) at the Sao Paulo Universitys Psychiatric Institute. The sample was composed of patients diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa (AN, n=27), Bulimia (BN, n=31) and a control group (CG, n=13). The data collection involved assessing PA by using an objective instrument (accelerometer), self-reported physical activities, and commitment to exercise. Nutritional and psychological variables were measured with scales of eating attitudes, body dissatisfaction, depression, and anxiety. Comparison between AN, BN and CG groups, was tested by Kruskal Wallis. In order to analyze the prevalence and the possible factors related to PA, Chi Square, Prevalence Ratio (RP), and Odds Ratio (OR) were performed. In the anthropometric, nutritional and psychological variables, CG presented the expected low risk for ED, depression and anxiety levels when compared to the ED groups (p<.05). In the objective instrument, BN presented the longer duration time of light PA, when compared to the other groups (p<.001). Considering the median as the cutoff for RP associations, those who exercised at light intensity measured with by accelerometer for over 973 minutes, presented 2.1 more prevalence of developing BN, when compared to those exercising equally or less time. The risk was negligible for AN. Limitations for this study are warranted: the compulsive exercise, based on the degree of the commitment to exercising, did not interfere in the prevalence of ED. Associations between the practice of PA and the anthropometric, nutritional and psychological variables, except for body dissatisfaction were not found. Those who presented dissatisfaction had 3.4 more chances of practicing PA. It is necessary to further study this population and use validated tools to investigate ED and levels of PA

Male eating disorders: experiences of food, body and selfDelderfield, Russell 12 1900 (has links)
No / This book takes a novel approach to the study of male eating disorders – an area that is often dominated by clinical discourses. The study of eating disorders in men has purportedly suffered from a lack of dedicated attention to personal and socio-cultural aspects. Delderfield tackles this deficiency by spotlighting a set of personal accounts written by a group of men who have experiences of disordered eating. The text presents critical interpretations that aim to situate these experiences in the social and cultural context in which these disorders occur.
This discursive work is underpinned by an eclectic scholarly engagement with social psychology and sociology literature around masculinities, embodiment and fatness, belonging, punishment, stigma, and control; leading to understandings about relationships with food, body and self. This is undertaken with a reflexive element, as the personal intersects with the professional. This text will appeal to students, scholars and clinicians in social sciences, humanities, and healthcare studies, including public health.
