“…Investigações anteriores e a literatura ao nível das PCA e da Obesidade apontam para o papel e a influência de diversas variáveis sociodemográficas no comportamento alimentar de adultos e crianças (Striegel-Moore & Bulik, 2007;Padez, Mourão, Moreira, & Rosado, 2005). Relativamente à variável género os resultados vêm corroborar outros autores que afirmam que ser do género feminino é um fator de risco no desenvolvimento das Perturbações do Comportamento Alimentar (Striegel-Moore & Bulik, 2007).…”

“…Relativamente à variável género os resultados vêm corroborar outros autores que afirmam que ser do género feminino é um fator de risco no desenvolvimento das Perturbações do Comportamento Alimentar (Striegel-Moore & Bulik, 2007). As raparigas apresentam uma maior tendência para a obsessão por emagrecer, para níveis elevados de excesso de controlo e de perfecionismo, características muito presentes nas PCA (Sampaio, Bouça, Carmo, & Jorge, 1999).…”

ResumoObjetivo: Compreender a relação entre o comportamento alimentar pais-filhos, relação esta que pode ser a chave para o desenvolvimento de estratégias de prevenção mais adequadas no campo da Obesidade e das Perturbações do Comportamento Alimentar. Método: Participaram no estudo 116 pais e respetivos 116 filhos de idades compreendidas entre os 8 e os 12 anos, que frequentam o 3º, 4º, 5º e 6º ano de escolaridade de duas escolas privadas da Zona da Grande Lisboa. Estes resultados vêm realçar a importância dos pais agirem como coagentes na mudança dos comportamentos alimentares desadequados dos seus filhos, uma vez que, estes comportamentos são aprendidos, partilhados e por vezes mantidos no seio familiar. Palavras-chave: relação pais-filhos, comportamento alimentar, perturbações do comportamento alimentar, obesidade AbstractObjective: To understand the parent-child eating behaviour relationship that could be the key for the development of more adequate prevention strategies in the field of Obesity and Eating Behaviour Disorders. Method: Participants were 116 parents and respective 116 children with ages ranging from 8 to 12 years, attending the 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th school years at two private schools in the Lisbon area. Two instruments were used: Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI-3) and Eating Disorder Inventory for Children (EDI-C). Results: The results show a significant correlation between parent-child eating behaviour at the level of the EDI scales, especially the Eating Disorder Risk Composite (r = 0,221; p = 0,017) and the General Psychological Maladjustment Composite (r = 0,183; p = 0,050). The parent-child relationship was assessed observing variables that contribute to healthy or inadequate behaviours, such as the body mass index, BMI (r = 0,228; p = 0,014), sedentary activities [(television viewing (r = 0,238; p = 0,010) and computer usage (r = 0,263; p = 0,004)], and physical activity (r = 0,342; p = 0,013). Conclusion: These results enhance the importance of parents as co-agents, supporting the change in their children's inadequate behaviour, once these behaviours are learned, shared and often kept within the family.

“…Research also shows that DE is pervasive across gender (Lavender & Anderson, 2010;Striegel-Moore & Bulik, 2007) and ethnic background (Mintz & Kashubeck, 1999;Rogers Wood & Petrie, 2010).…”

“…Many factors are theorized to contribute to the onset and maintenance of DE (Fairburn et al, 2003;Striegel-Moore & Bulik, 2007). One such factor that has been of great interest in recent years is emotion/behavior regulation Gross, 2002;Hayes, Luoma, Bond, Masuda, & Lillis, 2006).…”

The present cross-sectional study investigated whether self-concealment and psychological flexibility were uniquely associated with different facets of disordered eating (DE; i.e., dieting, bulimia/food preoccupation, and oral control) and whether these associations varied across gender. Participants included 621 female and 212 male college students, ages 18-24 years old. After controlling for age, ethnicity, and BMI, both selfconcealment and psychological flexibility were uniquely related to dieting. Controlling for these demographic variables, psychological flexibility, but not self-concealment, was uniquely associated with bulimia/food preoccupation. Neither self-concealment nor psychological flexibility was uniquely associated with oral control. Finally, gender moderated the association between self-concealment and dieting, suggesting that selfconcealment was relevant to dieting in the female group, but not in the male group.Limitations of the study and future directions are discussed.

To examine the relationship between childhood sexual abuse (CSA) before the age of 16 years and later onset of bulimia and anorexia nervosa symptoms in females.Design: A longitudinal cohort study of adolescents observed from August 1992 to March 2003. The cohort was defined in a 2-stage cluster sample using 44 Australian schools in Victoria.Setting: Population based.Participants: A total of 1936 persons participated at least once and survived to the age of 24 years, including 999 females. The mean (SD) age of females at the start of follow-up was 14.91 (0.39) years; and at completion, 24.03 (0.55) years.Main Exposure: Self-reported CSA before the age of 16 years was ascertained retrospectively at the age of 24 years.Outcome Measures: Incident Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Fourth Edition)-defined partial syndromes of anorexia and bulimia nervosa were identified between waves 4 (mean age, 16.3 years) and 6 (mean age, 17.4 years) using the Branched Eating Disorder Test.Results: The incidence of bulimic syndrome during adolescence was 2.5 (95% confidence interval, 0.80-8.0) times higher among those who reported 1 episode of CSA and 4.9 (95% confidence interval, 1.9-12.7) times higher among those who reported 2 or more episodes of CSA, compared with females reporting no episodes, adjusted for age and background factors. The association persisted after adjusting for possible confounders or mediators measured 6 months earlier, including psychiatric morbidity and dieting behavior. There was little evidence of an association between CSA and partial syndromes of incident anorexia nervosa. Conclusion:Childhood sexual abuse seems to be a risk factor for the development of bulimic syndromes, not necessarily mediated by psychiatric morbidity or severe dieting.
