“…Tales hallazgos coinciden con lo reportado por Unikel et al, 39 quienes también reportaron un aumento en la frecuencia de CAR cuando aumenta el IMC en mujeres entre 15 y 19 años, así como la ausencia de interacción entre variables como crí-tica e IMC sobre la frecuencia de CAR. Este aumento en la frecuencia de CAR asociado con el aumento de IMC también fue reportado por Lora-Cortez y Saucedo-Molina 40 en una muestra de mujeres entre 25 y 45 años.…”

IntroductionThe beginning of college studies involves important stress, which is related to an increase in the incidence of depression, anxiety, alcohol abuse and DEB. ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between DEB and nutritional status measured with BMI, its association with demographic and psychological variables, and the interaction with BMI. MethodA sample of 892 college students in their freshman year (502 females and 390 males) (X age =19.7; SD=2.9) was studied. Weight and height were measured, and validated questionnaires were used. ResultsThe prevalence of DEB was 6.1% in females and 4.1% in males. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in females was 22.6%, and 7.4% and 26.6% and 9.3% in males, respectively. Among women and men with obesity 10.8% and 11.1% showed high-DEB, whilst among overweight women and men 13.2% and 3.8% showed high-DEB, respectively. BMI increases the risk for DEB 1.6 times among women (p < 0.05), 1.4 times among men (p > 0.05). There was no interaction found between BMI and the other variables. Discussion and conclusionThe variables related with body image increase the risk of DEB significantly (p < 0.05) in both sexes. Depressive symptoms, low self-steem increase the risk among women, and socioeconomic status and study area increase the risk of DEB among men. The specific research of DEB among males is highly recommended to avoid the under registration of cases.

“…Still others have found greater perceived racism or everyday discrimination to be associated with greater weight gain across 8 years (Cozier et al, 2009), increases in waist circumference across 9 years (Hunte, 2011), and higher visceral fat (Lewis et al, 2011), or have found weight stigma to be associated with greater binge eating and less weight loss outcomes (Wott and Carels, 2010) as well as higher BMI and lower exercise motivation (Vartanian and Shaprow, 2008). Some recent work has found among adolescents that racial discrimination is associated with greater physical activity (Corral and Landrine, 2012), or that criticism by family members of adolescents considered overweight or obese is associated with greater disordered eating behaviors (Unikel Santoncini et al, 2013). Experiencing weight-based bullying has also been found to be associated with poorer eating and physical activity behaviors, as well as greater likelihood of being overweight over time, among adolescents (e.g.…”

Weight- and race-based bullying: Health associations among urban adolescents

Stigma-based bullying is associated with negative mental and physical health outcomes. In a longitudinal study, surveys and physical assessments were conducted with mostly Black and Latino, socioeconomically disadvantaged, urban students. As hypothesized, greater weight- and race-based bullying each was significantly indirectly associated with increased blood pressure and body mass index, as well as decreased overall self-rated health across 2 years, through the mechanism of more negative emotional symptoms. Results support important avenues for future research on mechanisms and longitudinal associations of stigma-based bullying with health. Interventions are needed to reduce stigma-based bullying and buffer adolescents from adverse health effects.

“…However, such ideals are almost impossible for most women to healthily achieve (Tiggemann, 2002), and women's experiences of pressure to attain this ideal is linked to body dissatisfaction, dieting behaviours and eating disorders (e.g. Halliwell & Dittmarr, 2004;Mask & Blanchard, 2011;Unikel Santoncini, Martin Martin, Juarez Garcia, Gonzalez-Forteza, & Nuno Gutierrez, 2012).…”

A qualitative exploration of whether lesbian and bisexual women are ‘protected’ from sociocultural pressure to be thin

A qualitative exploration of whether lesbian and bisexual women are 'protected' from sociocultural pressure to be thin AbstractHeterosexual women in Western cultures are known to experience body image concerns, dieting and disordered eating as a result of intense social pressures to be thin. However, it is theorised that lesbian and bisexual women belong to a subculture which is 'protective' of such demands. Fifteen non-heterosexual women were interviewed about their experiences of social pressure. Thematic analysis of their accounts suggests that such theorising may be inaccurate, because these lesbian and bisexual women did not feel 'protected' from social pressures and experienced body dissatisfaction. While they might attempt to resist thin idealisation, resistance is not centred around their sexuality.
