Abstract

Purpose: To analyze the role of body dissatisfaction in the relationships of sociocultural influences, depression, and anxiety with disordered eating behaviors (DEB) in a sample of female Mexican university students.

Methods: A nonrandom sample of 526 female Mexican university students aged 18 to 25 years completed the Questionnaire of Influence on the Aesthetic Model of Body Shape (CIMEC-26), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ-8D) and the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26).

Results: Through the mean model (χ²/df (5, n = 526) = 7.298, p = .199; NFI = .996; CFI = .999; RMSEA = .030; SRMR = .011), body dissatisfaction was found to mediate the relationships of influence of advertising, influence of social models and anxiety with DEB (restrictive dieting and bulimia). The variable with the most direct effect on restrictive dieting and bulimia was the influence of advertising. Body dissatisfaction partially mediated this relationship, as the influence of advertising had a significant direct effect on restrictive dieting and bulimia. The final model of direct and indirect effects explained 43% and 22% of the variance in restrictive dieting and bulimia, respectively.

Conclusion: The present study showed that body dissatisfaction partially mediated the relationships between influence of advertising, influence of social models, and anxiety with DEB among women. Thus, these variables should be taken into account in prevention and intervention programs targeting BED.

Level v: Evidence obtained from a cross-sectional descriptive study.

解释女性饮食失调行为的变量：身体不满意的中介作用。

目的：以墨西哥女大学生为样本，分析身体不满意在社会文化影响、抑郁和焦虑与饮食失调行为（DEB）之间关系中的作用：方法：对 526 名年龄在 18 至 25 岁之间的墨西哥女大学生进行非随机抽样，她们填写了 "体形美学模型影响问卷"（CIMEC-26）、"医院焦虑和抑郁量表"（HADS）、"体形问卷"（BSQ-8D）和 "饮食态度测试"（EAT-26）：通过均值模型（χ2/df (5, n = 526) = 7.298, p = .199；NFI = .996；CFI = .999；RMSEA = .030；SRMR = .011）发现，身体不满意是广告影响、社会模式影响和焦虑与 DEB（限制性节食和暴食症）之间关系的中介。对限制性节食和暴食症有最直接影响的变量是广告影响。由于广告影响对限制性节食和暴食症有显著的直接影响，因此身体不满意部分地调解了这种关系。直接和间接影响的最终模型分别解释了限制性节食和暴食症中 43% 和 22% 的变异：本研究表明，身体不满意在一定程度上介导了广告影响、社会模式影响和焦虑与女性 DEB 之间的关系。因此，在针对 BED 的预防和干预计划中应考虑到这些变量：证据来自一项横断面描述性研究：从一项横断面描述性研究中获得的证据。
