RESUMO

O objetivo foi analisar a relação entre a restrição alimentar, os sintomas de bulimia e os sentimentos de burnout. Trata-se de uma investigação exploratória com delineamento transversal desenvolvida com jovens atletas de esportes coletivos do sexo masculino. A amostra foi selecionada de forma não probabilística, sendo composta de 328 atletas do sexo masculino. Utilizaram-se as subescalas do EatingAttitudes Test para avaliar restrição alimentar e sintomas de bulimia. Utilizou-se o AthleteBurnoutQuestionnaire (ABQ) para avaliar os sentimentos de burnout. Conduziu-se a correlação parcial bicaudal com a premissa de relacionar as subescalas do EAT-26 e ABQ. Salienta-se que o percentual de gordura e a idade foram estatisticamente controlados. Todos os dados foram tratados no software SPSS 21.0, adotando-se nível de signifi cância de 5%.Concernente a relação entre as subescalas do EAT-26 e ABQ, foram identifi cados achados que merecem destaque a) a subescala "Dieta" demonstrou relação estatisticamente signifi cante com as subescalas "Exaustão Física e Emocional" (r = 0,22; p = 0,01) e "Desvalorização da Modalidade Esportiva" (r = 0,24; p = 0,01), fato não revelado para a subescala "Reduzido Senso de Realização Esportiva" (r = 0,11; p = 0,23) e; b) a subescala "Bulimia e Preocupação com Alimentos" indicou relação signifi cante com todas as subescalas do ABQ [Exaustão Física e Emocional (r = 0,31; p = 0,01), Reduzido Senso de Realização Esportiva (r = 0,20; p = 0,01) e Desvalorização da Modalidade Esportiva (r = 0,29; p = 0,01)]. Concluiu-se que a restrição alimentar e os sintomas de bulimia revelaram relação com alguns sentimentos de burnout....(AU)

ABSTRACT

The objective was to analyze the relationship between restrained eating, bulimia symptoms and feelings of burnout. This is an exploratory research with a cross-sectional design developed with young male sportsmen. The sample was selected in a non-probabilistic way, being composed of 328 male athletes. The Eating Attitudes Test subscales were used to evaluate restrained eating and bulimia symptoms. The Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ) was used to assess feelings of burnout. The two-tailed partial correlation was conducted with the premise of relating the EAT-26 and ABQ subscales. It should be noted that body fat percentage and age were statistically controlled. All data were processed in SPSS 21.0 software, adopting a signifi cance level of 5%. Regarding the relationship between the EAT-26 and ABQ subscales, we identifi ed the following points a) the subscale "Diet" showed a statistically signifi cant relationship with the "Physical and Emotional Exhaustion" (r = 0.22; p = 0.01) and "Devaluation of Sporting Modality" (r = 0.24; p = 0.01)subscales, which was not revealed for the subscale "Reduced Sense of Sports Achievement" (r = 0.11, p = 0.23) and; B) the "Bulimia and Food Concern" subscale indicated a signifi cant relation with all ABQ subscales [Physical and Emotional Exhaustion (r = 0.31, p = 0.01), Reduced Sense of Sports Performance (r = 0.20, p = 0.01) and Sports Mode Devaluation (r = 0.29, p = 0.01)]. It was concluded that the restrained eating and the bulimia symptoms were related to some feelings of burnout....(AU)
