“…This dissatisfaction could be an important environmental factor contributing to the characteristic stress of modern life, a condition also strongly associated with the current morbimortality. 3,14,20 The fact that even women having an adequate weightto-height ratio desire to have lower weight is of concern. This body image distortion is indeed originated by the mass media that privilege beauty models that have weight-to-height ratios close, or even parallel, to those of people suffering from eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia.…”

“…4 Likewise, research assessing body image self-perception has used BMI as an indicator of nutritional status associated with determinants of body weight-related behaviors. 10,15 As environmental and socio-cultural changes seen in the last decades have an important role in increasing obesity rates, 3,20 it is crucial to know the determinants of nutritional status, i.e., the symbolic universe and subjective elements pervading people's life style and eating behaviors. Identifying and measuring the magnitude of body image self-perception distortions would be relevant for the clinical evaluation of those individuals at risk of developing obesity.…”

OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship between body mass index and selfperception of body image. METHODS:A study was carried out in a sample comprising 106 female and male university students aged 18 years or more in Ribeirão Preto, Southeastern Brazil, in 2003. The Contour Drawing Rating Scale and Visual Analogue Scale were used to evaluate body image perception; the former was applied using two different psychometric methods. A body image questionnaire was used to assess the subjective component of body image. Subjects were classified according to body mass index. Statistical analyses were performed through variance analysis and Newman-Keuls post-hoc test. RESULTS:Most normal weight or overweight women (87%) overestimated their body size while obese women and all men (73%), regardless of their BMI, underestimated their body size. The differences of body image perception between men and women were statistically significant as well as the overall dissatisfaction with their perceived body size, revealed by a desired lower body mass index. Overweight women were more concerned and uncomfortable with their own body. CONCLUSIONS:Both men and women had a distorted self-perception of body image, underestimating or overestimating it. The study results suggest dissatisfaction of subjects with their body image as they desire to have leaner bodies.

“…Image cares have been always associated with an empowerment feeling (Silva, Vicente, Amaro, & Campos, 2016). Appearance, beauty, look, image and well-being are very important and valued social concepts (Andrade & Bosi, 2003;Pereira, Graup, Lopes, Borgatto, & Daronco, 2009). …”

Abstract:University students, who are regular sport participants, showed a superior and more positively physical selfdescription in body fat, general physical self-concept and self-esteem perception (Silva, Vicente, Amaro, & Campos, 2016). In another study with university students, in order to investigate what they think about their own physical appearance (Silva, Saenger, & Pereira, 2011), it was concluded that 63% of male and 67% of female students presents dissatisfaction, although for contradictory reasons (female students were dissatisfied due to overweight; male students were dissatisfied due to the thinness index). Considering this, based on the presented studies, the aim of this research is to characterize and compare sport participants by gender -students of the Cuenca Campus of the Universidad Castilla La Mancha (Spain) -according 4 (four) dimensions of their physical self-description: (1) body fat; (2) general physical self-concept; (3) self-esteem; (4) physical appearance. It was applied a reduced version of the Physical Self-Description Questionnaire (PSDQ), translated to Spanish (Tomás, 1998). The data were collected from 175 university students (22,00±3,41 years old), regular sport participants (at least once per week): 86 females (21,15±1,99 years old) and 89 males (22,82±4,18 years old). After the application of the ANOVA one-way test is possible to confirm, comparing the male with the female sport participants, that there are no statistical significant differences in the dimensions: body fat (F=0,001; p=0,973); self-esteem (F=0,186; p=0,667); physical appearance (F=0,748; p=0,388). In contrast, there are statistical significant differences in general physical selfconcept dimension (F=4,269; p=0,040), having the male participants a higher mean of answer values (M=4,643).

“…O ideal do corpo perfeito preconizado pela nossa sociedade e veiculado pela mídia leva as mulheres à insatisfação crônica com seu corpo, culpando-se, muitas vezes, por alguns quilos a mais, ou adotando dietas altamente restritivas e exercícios físicos extenuantes como forma de compensar as calorias ingeridas em excesso, na tentativa de corresponder ao modelo cultural vigente 5 .…”

resumo objetivo: Avaliar a percepção corporal e a prevalência de sintomas de anorexia nervosa em estudantes universitários. métodos: Estudo transversal, no qual a seleção da amostra foi realizada por conveniência. Aplicou-se o questionário teste de atitudes alimentares (EAT-26) e teste de imagem corporal, para avaliar os sintomas de anorexia nervosa e a percepção corporal, respectivamente. Para a análise estatística dos dados utilizou-se o teste binomial para verificar a existência de associação entre as variáveis qualitativas. resultados: Participaram do estudo 149 estudantes de nutrição e 78 estudantes de educação física. Observou-se que 10,3% e 14,1% dos estudantes de educação física e nutrição, respectivamente, apresentaram fatores de risco para desenvolver anorexia nervosa e o teste de imagem corporal evidenciou proporções elevadas de insatisfação com a forma corporal, em ambos os cursos: 75,8% e 78,2% para os cursos de nutrição e educação física, respectivamente. conclusão: Os estudantes de nutrição mostraram maior tendência de apresentar comportamento de risco para anorexia nervosa, com predominância no sexo feminino. Além disso, os resultados evidenciaram proporções elevadas de insatisfação com a imagem corporal, em ambos os cursos. Estes resultados são preocupantes, tendo em vista que são futuros profissionais que possuem papel fundamental na detecção e, no caso do nutricionista, no manejo destes distúrbios.
