ABSTRACT

El propósito de esta investigación fue analizar el papel de la composición corporal, la insatisfacción corporal y el modelo de delgadez sobre el riesgo de desarrollar trastornos del comportamiento alimentario (TCA). Participaron 289 estudiantes universitarias, quienes contestaron el cuestionario de actitudes alimentarias, el cuestionario de bulimia de edimburgo y el cuestionario de influencias del modelo estético corporal. La composición corporal se analizó por medio de bioimpedancia eléctrica. Se encontró que 9.69 por ciento de las mujeres presentaron riesgo de TCA, siendo mayor el porcentaje entre las mujeres que tenían peso normal y cantidades excesivas de grasa corporal. La insatisfacción corporal predijo el riesgo de anorexia nerviosa, y la interacción entre insatisfacción corporal, influencia de la publicidad e índice de masa corporal predijo el riesgo de bulimia nerviosa. Se concluye que la insatisfacción corporal juega un papel relevante en la predicción de riesgo de TCA.
