(Sundgot-Borgen and
Torstveit, 2004)
- The aim was to examine the prevalence of AN, BN and binge-eating disorder in male and female Norwegian elite athletes and a sample from the general Norwegian population.
- 1620 athletes (660 females, 960 males)
1696 general population (780 females, 916 males)
- Prevalence higher in athletes than general population. More common in female athletes and general population.
(de Bruin and Oudejans, 2018)
- The aim was to investigate if and how body image contributes to eating disorder history
- Elite women athletes between 18-33 years of age who participated in sport at a national or international level in there career.
- Results showed that aesthetic sports such as athletics had a higher interest in their body image which resulted in disordered eating
(Wollenberg, Shriver and
Gates, 2015)
- Compare prevalence of disordered eating between female college athletes and no-athletes and explore emotion regulation as a potential mediator for the link between participation in athletics and disordered eating.
- 527 American college students. 151 athletes, 376 non-athletes
- The non-athletes had a higher prevalence of disordered eating compared to the athletes. Greater difficulties with regulating emotions were reported with non-athletes.

Cena et al., 2017)
- The aim of this study was to examine the association between a history of childhood obesity and dieting behaviors with the development of eating disorders later in life
- Consisted of 537 outpatients from treatment centers between the ages of 16-60 year olds
- The results showed that childhood obesity was associated with the development of eating disorders later in life
(Sala, Brosof and
Levinson, 2019)
- The aim of this study was to examine the relationships between repetitive negative thinking and subsequent eating disorder behaviors and vice-versa using ecological momentary assessment
- 66 participants who were recently treated in eating disorder treatment clinics
- Results showed that higher momentary repetitive negative thinking predicted higher subsequent weighing and body checking
(Stanford and Lembery, 2012)
- The objectives of this study were to measure ED's in men by developing the Eating Disorder Assessment for Men (EDAM)
- 108 clinical subjects participated. 78 males, 30 females
- EDAM developed to predict ones risk of developing/having an ED
