Abstract:
Many individuals experience body-size and -shape misperception (BSSM). Body-size overestimation is associated with body dissatisfaction, anxiety, depression, and the development of eating disorders in individuals who desire to be thinner. Similar symptoms have been noted for those who underestimate their muscularity. Conversely, individuals with high body mass indices (BMI) who underestimate their adiposity may not recognize the risks of or seek help for obesity-related medical issues. Although social scientists have examined whether media representations of idealized bodies contribute to the overestimation of fat or underestimation of muscle, other scientists suggest that increases in the prevalence of obesity could explain body-fat underestimation as a form of renormalization. However, these disparate approaches have not advanced our understanding of the perceptual underpinnings of BSSM. Recently, a new unifying account of BSSM has emerged that is based on the long-established phenomenon of visual adaptation, employing psychophysical measurements of perceived size and shape following exposure to “extreme” body stimuli. By inducing BSSM in the laboratory as an aftereffect, this technique is rapidly advancing our understanding of the underlying mental representation of human bodies. This nascent approach provides insight into real-world BSSM and may inform the development of therapeutic and public-health interventions designed to address such perceptual errors.

Abstract:
Social networks use is related to the occurrence of eating disorders (ED). In this study, we experimentally evaluated the effect of exposure to social networks and stereotypical images of the thinness ideal on ED symptomatology and analyzed the mediator role of anxiety in this process. A sample of 321 young adults of both sexes (166 females) were randomly assigned to two experimental conditions: high and low exposure to the thin ideal. Our results indicate a decrease in self-esteem in the group exposed to the thin images and an increase in anxiety. We found the effect of the images on self-esteem is completely mediated by the increase in anxiety. No changes in body satisfaction or drive for thinness were found. Our study shows how brief exposure to images and profiles representative of the thin ideal seems to influence participants' self-esteem. These results show the need to raise awareness of the possible consequences of social media, as well as to promote a healthy use of social networks.

Abstract:
This work aims to study the personality and cognitive characteristics of social media users with eating disorders. The work involved 209 people (84 women with anorexia nervosa, 82 women with bulimia nervosa, a control group of 43 healthy women). The Eating Behavior Rating Scale (EBRS), Cognitive-behavioral Patterns in Eating Disorders Questionnaire, 16-factor Personality Questionnaire, and the Dysfunctional Relations Scale (DRS) were used to assess cognitive and personal characteristics of people with eating disorders. It was found in the work that emotional instability, anxiety, and suspicion are characteristic personality traits for persons with eating disorders. It has been found that individuals with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa have different cognitive characteristics. The cognitive characteristics of individuals with eating disorders are correlated with their personality traits.

Abstract:
IntroductionEating Disorders are a frequent pathology, particularly among teenagers, a group characterized by its vulnerability and body dissatisfaction. Social networks (SN) can be a gateway to ED, mainly with Pro-Ana and Pro-Mia resources. Despite the aforementioned, SN can also be helpful for professionals, either as a tool of approach to vulnerable groups or as a way of interaction in patients already diagnosed.ObjectivesTo study the relationship between ED and SN, using the open access evidence available in Pubmed over the last 5 years.MethodsA single-phase computerised search was carried out in Pubmed. The search terms were: (“Anorexia Nervosa”[Mesh] OR “Bulimia Nervosa”[Mesh] OR “Feeding and Eating Disorders”[Mesh] OR “Eating Disorders”[Tiab] OR “Eating Disorder”[Tiab] OR “Disorder, Eating”[Tiab] OR “Disorders, Eating”[Tiab] OR “Anorexia”[Tiab] OR “Bulimia”[Tiab]) AND (“blogging”[Mesh] OR “social media”[Mesh]). The filters applied were: “free Full Text” and publications for the last 5 years.Results36.84% studied SN as a positive tool for ED. 47.37% revealed negative influence, only 44.44% focused on Pro-Ana and Pro-Mia. 15.79% provided both positive and negative arguments. The most studied SN were Twitter and Facebook.ConclusionsDespite the known negative effect that SN can have on ED, they can also be used as a supportive recovery framework. They can be used to identify dangerous behaviours and intervene or as a prevention tool.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the perceived effects of media exposure of body slimming advertisements on body dissatisfaction and the tendency for eating disorders in a sample of adult women in Malaysia. This study examined two aspects: (a) the level of media exposure to slimming advertisements (media exposure), and (b) the tendency of respondents to make body comparisons with models in slimming advertisements (media body comparisons). Participants were 419 young women (18 – 39 years old) living in Kuala Lumpur. Correlation coefficients showed that media exposure and media body comparisons were positively associated with body dissatisfaction and eating disorders tendency. The findings suggest that mass media play a role by providing slim images that young women in Kuala Lumpur tend to emulate and adopt western cultural ideals of body image and the desire for a thinner body type.

Abstract:
Research on body image has neglected a number of factors that seem likely to influence individuals’ eating disorders. This study looks at eating disorder relationships with age, cultural background, physical and psychological factors, amount and type of media exposure, and body image processing (i.e., comparing and endorsing thin ideals). Survey results from a sample of 376 Korean adolescent and college-aged females confirmed the mediating effect body image processing had on eating disorder indicators. Although striking age differences were found in the relationship between media use and eating disorders, there were also similarities between the two age groups. Comparing and endorsing thin ideals played a more important role among adolescent girls than among college-aged women. Contrary to previous research reported in the U.S., exposure to television “thin drama” was not a significant predictor of Korean females’ body image disturbance. Instead, exposure to foreign media had direct and indirect impacts on eating disorders among Korean females. Implications of the age and cross-cultural differences were discussed.

Abstract:
Nutritional disorders describe restrictive and/or abusive behaviours that affect both women and men alike. The relationship with food can change in the sense of food preferences, sometimes eating healthier, and sometimes not, or eating more or losing appetite. An eating disorder is a mental disorder defined by abnormal eating habits that adversely affect a person’s physical or mental health. The cause of eating disorders is not clear. We aim to identify whether there is a correlation between personality traits and feeding disorders in young adults aged 20–25 years. To verify the work hypothesis, we applied the MCMI Personality Tracking and EDI 3 Test for Food Disorder on a 150-person group of participants aged 20–25 years. The media plays a major role in the way people see themselves. And, socio-economic status is a factor that influences eating disorders. Keywords: Cognitive problems, food disorders, personality disorders.

Abstract:
Latar Belakang: Penggunaan sosial media dapat membawa dampak negative kaitannya dengan ketidakpuasan akan bentuk tubuh dan arahan menuju ke kekurusan (drive to thinness) terutama pada perempuan muda, perhatian belebih pada citra tubuh (body image concern), dan berbagai isu terkait kebiasaan makan yang salah.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan kebiasaan memposting swafoto pada SNS dengan kejadian eating disorder pada sejumlah negara serta faktor-faktor yang mungkin mempengaruhi.Metode: Sistematik review dilakukan pada paper dari Medline, Sciencedirect, Embase, dan Google Scholar dengan kata kunci “Selfie” dan “eating disorder”. Pencarian dibatasi pada kelompok populasi remaja hingga dewasa awal dan pada penggunaan Social Networking Sites.Ulasan: Kondisi eating disorder sering tidak disadari oleh individu, terutama pada kelompok remaja dan dewasa muda. Data terkait prevalensi eating disorder di Indonesia juga sangat terbatas, padahal, penggunaan media social di kalangan remaja dan dewasa muda Indonesia semakin meningkat seiring dengan mudahnya akses internet dan perkembangan chanel media sosial. Dari review sistematik yang dilakukan, hanya satu studi yang mendapatkan keterkaitan antara postingan selfie dengan eating disorder, yaitu bulimia. Namun, hampir semua memiliki kesimpulan bahwa penggunaan sosial media berkaitan dengan rendahnya kepercayaan diri, ketidakpuasan terhadap bentuk tubuh, citra diri negative, serta berkaitan dengan karakteristik restriksi pola makan berlebihan.Kesimpulan: Telaah sistematik ini dapat menjadi acuan untuk pengembangan penelitian kedepan dengan memperhatikan fenomena sosial, penggunaan sosial media dan kaitannya dengan eating disorder maupun status gizi remaja dan dewasa awal.

Abstract:
In addition to the professional treatment of eating disorders, the use of self-help groups has become increasingly important. Social media offers new possibilities for self-help, not only as online groups but also in increased access to recovery stories of people with similar diseases. People with eating disorders use the internet and social media depending on their motivation in different ways. Eating disorder recovery stories on social media have not yet been systematically used in treatment as appropriate guidelines are still lacking. This study provides an initial insight into the possibilities of using social media for self-help for eating disorders. Due to the exploratory nature, a qualitative design was used, combining interviews with people who have a recovery account on Instagram (n = 6) and self-help experts (n = 2). The results show that recovery stories on Instagram could serve as door openers for further treatment, motivation for therapy, a first step towards behaviour change, and support for existing therapies. If affected people can cope with the self-protection strategies, they can use Instagram positively for themselves and their disease. Nevertheless, there is a risk of negative influence as well as a risk of content and time overload. Therapeutic personnel can use these results to improve existing support services.

Abstract:
A questionnaire examining attitudes to patients with eating disorders was completed by 352 medical and nursing staff in a general hospital. Patients with eating disorders were less liked than patients with schizophrenia and were seen as responsible for their illness almost to the same degree as recurrent overdose takers. Factor analysis showed a first factor in which patients with eating disorders were construed as vulnerable to external pressures (from others, the media) while also self-inducing their illness, and this was associated with treatment recommendations for education, urging the patient to take self-control and psychotherapy. The professions differed significantly in attitudes.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the extent to which Chinese eating disorder patients use social media as a medium to analyze the prevalence of eating disorder illness awareness, their interactive behaviors, characteristics, impact and possible problems. The overall social patterns can be summarized as help-seeking, self-referral, questioning and answering, mutual help, disease awareness enhancement, disease behavior improvement, weakening of the strained doctor-patient relationship, self-reinvention, partial recovery, sharing and spreading disease awareness. METHODS:The ecology of eating disorders in three existing Chinese virtual social media platforms, in which the respondents were Chinese eating disorder science bloggers, was observed to assess the reach of their communication and the extent to which it influenced the audience's recovery from eating disorders. Results: An overview of the existing situation of eating disorders on Weibo and Red Booklet platforms was conducted, and three social patterns were found: relying on virtual comfort, exploring illness problems, and seeking social support. An analysis of three changes in the socially mediated interaction behavior of eating disorders: a reduction in stigma, an increase in the rate of consultation and a lower age profile. Discussion: With the rapid development of eating disorder internet science in China, the existing and possible problems in its development and the ways to improve it only have to be explored, e.g. "scientific and neutral communication of the disease", "sharing of cases and mutual support", "improvement of access to medical care".

Abstract:
Abstract Objective The purpose of this study is to assess the increase both in the use of the Internet and social media and in Google searches regarding eating disorders (ED) in Italy during the Covid-19 pandemic. Our aim is also to verify the possible impact of such an increase on ED, since patients treated for ED by the National Health Service (NHS) have increased in the first 6 months of 2020 as well. Method We used data from Wearesocial surveys on Internet users in the first 6 months of 2020 and the Google searches related to the query of “food disorders” and “body shaming.” The first results of a project of the Italian Ministry of Health on ED have been considered too. Results The social media users in July 2020 increased to 60% of the Italian population; a tendential increase in Google searches on these issues has emerged. Finally, new patients of NHS with ED showed a high increase in the first 6 months of 2020 (+40.9%). Conclusion Considering the contents diffused on the Internet, it is fundamental to watch over net usage in the adolescent population and those with ED, because massive access to social media can be considered almost as a risk factor.

Abstract:
Eating disorders have been highly prevalent in young females for decades for many reasons. Social media platforms have an enormous impact on users, especially young adults, who use them every day. In Saudi Arabia, social media is popular, with an estimated 72% of users being active in 2020. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to assess the relationship between using social media to search for nutritional information and eating concerns. A nationwide study was conducted on 1092 young Saudi females aged 18–30 years from five administrative regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Data were collected using an online validated questionnaire, and symptoms of eating concerns were assessed using two brief instruments: SCOFF [Sick, Control, One Stone, Fat, Food] and Eating disorders Screen for Primary care [ESP]. The prevalence of eating concerns was 49.6% among Saudi females. Moderate eating concerns were more prevalent in the central region 24.8%, whereas high eating concerns were more prevalent in the southern region 27.6%. Personal accounts of dietitian/nutritionists (OR = 1.170; 95% CI 1.071–1.277; p ≤ 0.001), interaction with offered experiments about new meals/restaurants, and diets on social media that were mostly promoted by celebrities/influencers (OR = 1.554; 95% CI 1.402–1.723; p ≤ 0.000) were the most prominent risk factors associated with being more likely to suffer from eating concerns. The present study recommends opening clinics specializing in nutrition on social media platforms that target young females to provide nutritional counselling and encourage a healthy lifestyle. In addition, it is important to plan awareness campaigns intended to educate young females on how to deal with messages that circulate on social media without any evidence regarding their truthfulness.

Abstract:
The pandemic of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) has contributed to an increase in problems related to eating behavior and body image in the population. Various risk factors that have become relevant due to changes in the usual lifestyle have significantly affected the frequency of eating disorders in the adolescent population. This necessitated the adapting of new strategies for providing medical care in conditions of limited personal contact.The aim of the work is the methodological substantiation and systematization of modern approaches to the prevention and treatment of eating disorders, body image disorders and risk factors associated with them in adolescents in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic.Materials and methods. The methodological basis of the work is a comprehensive analysis of modern medical and social approaches and recommendations on the organization of assistance to adolescents with eating disorders and body image disorders, with a description of personal experience of using various interventions on an outpatient basis during the pandemic.Results: Prevention and treatment of eating disorders and body image disorders in adolescents during the pandemic should be aimed at specific risk factors those have proved to be the most relevant in connection with restrictive measures: involvement in body image-related social media content and active use of the media; reduction of physical activity with simultaneous increase in access to food; social isolation and reduction of social support; restriction of access to qualified care. The most reasonable approaches during the pandemic are the approaches focused on the family of a teenager using, if possible, remote forms of assistance.Conclusions: Currently, there are no norms and standards in the organization of assistance to adolescents with eating disorders and body image disorders in the pandemic context. However, the analysis of the implemented approaches aimed at various risk factors of these disorders will allow the use of the most effective preventive and therapeutic practices in the future.

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1980-0037.2016v18n1p82 The evaluation of psychological factors can help preventing eating disorders in athletes. This study aimed to verify possible links between body dissatisfaction and media influence, perfectionism, mood and risk behavior for eating disorders and to compare the study variables among artistic gymnastics elite and non-elite athletes and non-athletes. Participants were 413 adolescents of both sexes (elite and non-elite athletes and non-athletes), aged 10-18 years (mean age 12.86 ± 1.80). BSQ, EAT-26, SATAQ-3, MPS and BRUMS were applied to evaluate body dissatisfaction, risk behavior for eating disorders, media influence, perfectionism and mood, respectively. Anthropometric data were collected to estimate body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage (%BF). Descriptive statistical, comparative and correlational analyses were held. Only EAT-26 influenced BSQ in the three groups. In non-athletes, BMI, BRUMS and SATAQ-3 added explanation to the model. For non-elite athletes, %BF, media influence and mood were also predictors of body dissatisfaction. Elite athletes had lower BMI and %BF than the others. Non-athletes had lower perfectionism scores while non-elite athletes athletes had lower mood scores. It could be concluded that the risk behavior for eating disorders is the factor most strongly related to body dissatisfaction among elite and non-elite athletes and non-athletes.

Abstract:
Background: Over the past few years, an increase in the incidence of eating disorders has been noted. An increase in the pace of life, an increase in the availability of a wide variety of food products, and, to a large extent, the involvement of mass media are cited as reasons for this phenomenon. The promotion of a slim figure by the mass media is equated with achieving success in life, but also the advertising of a wide selection of food products (often highly processed) can have a serious impact on the development of eating disorders. This phenomenon is particularly observed in industrialized Western countries. Objective: Therefore, it was decided to test and compare whether dietetics students are indeed more predisposed to developing eating disorders than students not in the nutrition field. Material and methods: the study included 310 individuals representing two equal groups of fields of study—dietetics and other students. The study used standardized questionnaire—EAT-26. Results: It was found that almost half (46%) of the respondents (both dietetics students and students of other majors) met at least one criterion out of three that could indicate the probable existence or susceptibility to an eating disorder. These individuals should see a specialist for further diagnosis. There was no significant effect of the field of study on the overall EAT-26 test score (p > 0.05). When this result was corrected for BMI values for those with the lowest scores on this indicator, the risk of eating disorders was found to be higher among students of majors other than dietetics (X2 = 13.572; V = 0.831 p = 0.001). Conclusions: Almost half of the respondents in both study groups showed a predisposition to eating disorders based on the EAT-26 test. Despite the presence of a correlation in individual responses that dietetics students are more predisposed to eating disorders, no such relationship was found according to the final EAT-26 test scores. However, it was observed that non-dietetics students who had low BMI values showed higher tendencies toward behaviors indicative of eating disorders.

Stress, social media, family and peer influence are also factors affecting the nutrition attitude. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of stress and social media usage on eating behaviors in university students. Methods: Retrospective-descriptive study data were collected by using the interview form consisted of four parts. Those four parts were “general informations” for demographic informations, “Eating Attitudes Test” for eating attitudes diagnosis, “Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale” for diagnosis of psychological disorders and “Social Media Use”. Results: A total of 422 people, 329 women and 93 men participated in the survey conducted at the Faculty of Health Sciences of Trakya University. There was a statistically significant difference between stress degree and eating behavior disorder and it was determined that the increase in stress severity caused abnormal eating behavior. There was a statistically significant difference between the time allocated to social media and eating behavior disorder, and it was determined that increased time allocated to social media caused eating behavior disorder. Conclusion: In our study, it was determined that stress and social media use had significant negative effects on students' eating behaviors. Keywords: students, stress, social media, feeding behavior

Abstract:
Eating disorders and other “sub-clinical” problems such as disordered eating and body shame/dissatisfaction grow more prevalent in our society. This is particularly true since the advent of COVID-19 changed our social landscape, leading to increases in isolation and anxiety and in the use of technology to work, to connect, and to live. Social media in this age present both barriers and possibilities for mental health and identity development, particularly for individuals who suffer from eating disorders and related problems. In her seminal first book, Shauna Frisbie deftly weaves through each of these topics, creating a tapestry for both novice and expert clinicians to view and understand how social media consumption can be assessed, dismantled, and harnessed to help clients who struggle with disordered eating. Guided by the central topics of selfhood and identity development and by the techniques of phototherapy, Dr. Frisbie creates a compelling story that draws on both research and case studies from her practice.
