Resumo: The prevalence of inadequate eating behavior is high in athletes. However, little is known about the factors that affect this phenomenon in this population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of body dissatisfaction and level of psychological commitment to exercise (LPCE) with inadequate eating behavior in young athletes from aesthetic sports. Forty-seven female athletes practicing aesthetic sports (artistic gymnastics, synchronized swimming and high diving), ranging in age from 12 to 16 years, participated in the study. The Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) and Commitment to Exercise Scale (CES) were used to evaluate the risk behavior for eating disorders, body dissatisfaction and LPCE, respectively. Skinfold thickness was measured to calculate body fat percentage of the athletes. The results revealed a significant association between body dissatisfaction and eating behavior and between LPCE and risk behavior for eating disorders. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that all variables, except for fat percentage, influenced the eating behavior of young athletes. This analysis also indicated an influence of body fat percentage and body dissatisfaction on CES scores. It was concluded that body dissatisfaction and LPCE are factors that predispose to risky eating behaviors in athletes from aesthetic sports.

No entanto, pouco se sabe a respeito dos fatores que causam impacto sobre este fenômeno nesta população. O objetivo do estudo foi associar a insatisfação corporal e o grau de comprometimento psicológico ao exercício (GCPE) ao comportamento alimentar inadequado em jovens atletas de esportes estéticos. Participaram da pesquisa 47 atletas do sexo feminino de alguns esportes estéticos (ginástica artística, nado sincronizado e saltos ornamentais), com idade entre 12 e 16 anos. Para avaliar o comportamento alimentar de risco para transtornos alimentares (TA), a insatisfação corporal e o GCPE foram utilizados o Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26), o Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) e a Commitment Exercise Scale (CES), respectivamente. Dobras cutâneas foram aferidas para o cálculo do percentual de gordura das atletas. Os resultados apontaram associação significativa entre a insatisfação corporal e o comportamento alimentar (p<0,05), assim como entre o GCPE e o comportamento alimentar de risco para TA (p<0,05). A partir da regressão linear múltipla, todas as variáveis, com exceção do percentual de gordura, demonstraram influências sobre o comportamento alimentar de jovens atletas. Este mesmo teste também apontou influências do percentual de gordura e da insatisfação corporal sobre os escores da CES. Concluiu-se que a insatisfação corporal e o GCPE foram fatores predisponentes para o comportamento alimentar de risco em atletas de esportes estéticos.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
