Abstract(s)
As perturbações do comportamento alimentar são
um dos maiores flagelos da nossa sociedade, apesar do
reconhecimento da sua gravidade ser mais evidente
nas últimas duas décadas. As perturbações alimentares
e as suas expressões são determinadas por múltiplos
factores e variáveis, sendo alguns destes factores inerentes
a qualquer atleta de competição. O estudo apresentado
procura contribuir para uma melhor compreensão
deste fenómeno. Este estudo procurou igualmente
confirmar a existência de um maior número de comportamentos
e atitudes alimentares de risco em atletas
femininas de modalidades ditas de alto risco, relativamente
à prevalência de perturbações alimentares, comparativamente
a modalidades ditas de baixo risco.
Eating disorders are one of the biggest problems affecting today’s society. Inspite of the recognition of its danger and importance, this has only happened in the last two decades. The causes for eating disorders are attributed to a number of multiple factors and variables, some of those that are inherent to any competitive athlete. This study tried to contribute to a better understanding of this fenomena in the sport enviroment. This study also tried to confirm the existance of a significant higher presence of riskful eating behaviors and attitudes in sports that are hypothetically at a higher risk of developing eating disorders (e.g. gymnastics, athletics, judo and swimming) than in sports that are at a lower risk of developing eating disorders (field hockey and handball).
