Relationship of eating attitudes to anthropometric variables and dietary intakes of female collegiate swimmers.

Barr S.I.
In recent years, there have been many reports of abnormal attitudes toward eating and pathogenic weight control behaviors in the general female population and in female athletes. Most studies of athletes have focused on groups who maintain low body weights for competitive or aesthetic reasons (eg, distance runners, gymnasts, dancers); however, other groups of athletes are also concerned about body weight and have been found to have undesirable weight control practices. Frequently, these athletes also have inadequate dietary intakes. Few studies, however, have addressed the relationships among attitudes toward eating, anthropometric variables, and dietary intakes; for example, in a group of athletes, are those with abnormal attitudes toward eating likely to have lower body weights and less adequate dietary intakes? An understanding of these relationships may be useful in identifying individuals at greater nutritional risk and in providing background for counseling. Accordingly, this study was conducted to assess these relationships in female collegiate swimmers.
