CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The pursuit of perfection can cause anxiety and lead dancers to exceed their physical limits. The aim here was to evaluate the prevalence of pain symptoms and eating disorders among professional and amateur dancers. DESIGN AND SETTING: Observational cross-sectional study; Curitiba, PR, Brazil. METHODS: Data on 150 professional and non-professional practitioners of ballet, jazz and street dance were collected through specific questionnaires: Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF), Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26), Bulimic Investigatory Test Edinburgh (BITE) and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-T-6 (STAI-T-6). RESULTS: Pain was observed in 58.6% of the sample, equally between professionals and amateurs (P = 0.19). Ballet dancers had more lower-limb pain than the other groups (P = 0.05). EAT-26 showed a tendency towards more eating disorders among the amateurs (P = 0.06). Higher risk of eating disorders was found among ballet dancers (P = 0.004) and jazz practitioners (P = 0.02) than among street dancers. Amateurs had more symptoms on the BITE scale (P < 0.0001), more pain (P = 0.002) and higher anxiety (P < 0.0001). Eating disorders were more common among females (P = 0.01) and singles (P = 0.02). Professionals were more satisfied with their own body image than amateurs (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Pain symptoms were found in almost half of the sample, equally among professionals and amateurs as well as between the three dance styles. Female and singles had more eating disorders. Those with eating disorders had higher levels of pain and anxiety. RESUMO T-6 (STAI-T-6).RESULTADOS: Encontrou-se dor em 58,6% da amostra, igualmente entre profissionais e amadores (P = 0,19). Praticantes de ballet tinham mais dor em membros inferiores que os demais (P = 0,05). No EAT-26, encontrou-se uma tendência para mais transtornos alimentares entre os amadores (P = 0,06). Alto risco para transtornos alimentares apareceu naqueles que praticavam o ballet (P = 0,004) e jazz (P = 0,02) mais do que street dance; amadores tinham mais sintomas no BITE (P < 0,0001), mais dor (P = 0,002) e ansiedade (P < 0,0001). Transtornos alimentares foram mais comuns em mulheres (P = 0,01) e solteiros (P = 0,02). Bailarinos profissionais estavam mais satisfeitos com sua imagem corporal do que amadores (P < 0,001). CONCLUSÕES: Encontrou-se sintomatologia dolorosa em quase metade da amostra, tanto em bailarinos profissionais como amadores, bem como nos três estilos de dança. Mulheres e pessoas solteiras tiveram mais transtornos alimentares. Aqueles com distúrbios alimentares tinham níveis mais elevados de dor e ansiedade.

“…STAI has twelve 4-point Likert-scale items (absolutely not = 1; a little = 2; some = 3; and very much = 4) divided into two subscales: a) State anxiety (STAI-S), which regards how the interviewee feels at that moment; and b) Trait anxiety (STAI-T), which regards how the interviewee generally feels. The STAI validation study 18 found internal consistencies of 0.90 and 0.89 for STAI-S and STAI-T, respectively. Cronbach's alphas for the present sample were 0.85 for STAI-S and 0.87 for STAI-T, indicating good internal consistency.…”

Are inappropriate eating behaviors and anxiety related with track and field in adolescent athletes?

OBJECTIVE: The study analyzed the relationship between anxiety and inappropriate eating behaviors in adolescent female athletes. METHODS: Eighty-eight track and field athletes aged 12 to 17 years participated in the study. We used the Eating Attitudes Test-26 subscales to assess inappropriate eating behaviors and the Brazilian State - Trait Anxiety Inventory subscales to assess State and Trait anxiety. RESULTS: State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - State (p=0.18) or State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - Trait (p=0.14) had no significant influence on the Dieting subscale score. The Bulimia and Food Preoccupation subscale score was also not influenced by State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - State (p=0.25) or State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - Trait (p=0.21). However, State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - Trait (p=0.048) had a significant impact on the Oral Control subscale score, but State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - State (p=0.19) did not explain its variance. CONCLUSION: Only State - Trait Anxiety Inventory - Trait was related to oral control and the environmental and social forces that encourage food intake in female athletes.
