“… Solomon-Kraus et al (2017) reported that determining the self-perceived approximation of their current and ideal body images has been used to realize the perception of body dissatisfaction in bodybuilders. BIG O and BIG S scales complemented these findings by revealing bodybuilders’ body image perceptions.…”

Bodybuilding has increasingly become popular between males since male body shape has become a subject of interest in the last decades. Bodybuilders have desired to gain more muscle and paid attention to their body shape. Based on this purpose, they have string rules that include restrictive eating and excessive exercise program. Recent research has demonstrated that desiring more muscular body shape exhibits eating behavior problems and body dissatisfaction issues in bodybuilders. Limited research exists on the relationship between body dissatisfaction and eating disorders in male bodybuilders. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between body image disturbance and eating disorders in 120 male bodybuilders. The Eating Attitude Test (EAT-40) was used to determine eating disorders, the Muscle Dysmorphia Disorder Inventory was used to determine bigorexia symptoms, and Bodybuilder Image Grid-Original (BIG O) and Scaled (BIG S) forms were used to detect the factors associated with body dissatisfaction. There was a positive relationship between Eating Attitude Test and Muscle Dysmorphia Disorder Inventory total scores. Eating Attitude Test was positively correlated with both fat and muscle dissatisfaction. Our results indicated that eating disorder psychopathology is positively related to body dissatisfaction and body dysmorphic disorders in male bodybuilders.

“…When people had an accurate weight perception, they showed >13 times higher odds for trying to lose weight in the cross-sectional analysis (16). On the other hand, the self-perceived versus desired body image discrepancy acts as a psychological stressor leading to depression, binge eating, and less physical activity (28). Children desiring thinner bodies were more likely to attempt dieting to change their weight and were less likely to feel that they had enough physical activity compared with those who had consistent self-assessed body image versus desired body image (29).…”

Objectives: This study examined secular trends in children’s weight status assessment, measured weight status and ideal body image, and their associations with subsequent changes in BMI, and it explored the differences between sociodemographic groups in China. Methods: Longitudinal data from the China Health and National Survey of 4,605 children aged 6-17 collected during 2000-2011 were used and fitted to mixed models. Results: Overweight/obesity prevalence increased from 6.5% to 16.8%, but children’s fat body perception remained around 2.0% between the years 2000 and 2011; 49.0% of children underestimated their weight status at baseline. Self-body image of most participants was tracked during follow-up. Children who perceived themselves as being fat at baseline had a higher BMI increase over time during follow-ups than those with an average body image (β[SE] =0.99[0.14]kg/m 2 /year, p <0.001). Boys, young, recent cohort, and rural children had higher BMI increases than their counterparts. Over time, thin body silhouette became more desirable (8.4% p higher, p<0.001). Conclusions: Chinese children experience a large incongruence between their weight status assessment, ideal body image, and actual weight status. Health promotion programs should examine their role in assisting children in developing healthy body images and gaining greater self-motivation towards promoting a healthy lifestyle.

Pediatrics and Neonatology xxx (xxxx) xxx three pre-conceptualized domains in the data. Further univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were applied to identify the correlates of different TFEQ-R21 subdomains. Results: The Comparative Fit Index for the TFEQ-R21 was 0.908, which confirmed the threefactor structure (i.e., cognitive restraint [CR], uncontrolled eating [UE], and emotional eating [EE]) in the Taiwan version of TFEQ-R21. Only CR correlated with disordered eating (r Z 0.351, p < 0.001). Body shape discrepancy, rather than weight status, was associated with CR in both males (b Z 0.15, 95% odds ratio [CI] 0.05e0.25) and females (b Z 0.21, 95% CI 0.10e0.32). Gender differences were noted in the correlates of UE and EE, where ideal body shape in males and self-perceived stigma in females were the main associative factors. Conclusion: The Taiwan version of the TFEQ-R21 is a robust, reliable tool by which to measure adolescent eating behavior. Gender differences in the eating behavior correlates require clinical and public health attention when implementing weight management programs.
