Abstract
INTRODUÇÃO E OBJETIVO: A grande preocupação com a aparência e a forma física e a constante pressão para manterem baixo peso corporal são fatores que levam a distorções da imagem corporal e tornam os bailarinos um grupo de risco para o desenvolvimento de transtornos alimentares (TA). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a percepção da imagem corporal e sua associação com comportamentos de risco para TA em bailarinos profissionais. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados 61 bailarinos (39 mulheres e 22 homens) de uma instituição representante da elite do balé clássico brasileiro. A avaliação dos comportamentos de risco para TA foi feita com base nas versões em português dos questionários Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) e Bulimic Investigatory Test Edinburgh (BITE). A Escala de Silhuetas de Stunkard foi utilizada para avaliação da percepção da imagem corporal. A associação entre as variáveis foi avaliada com base na razão de prevalência (RP) e seus respectivos intervalos de confiança (IC) de 95%. RESULTADOS: Trinta e um bailarinos (50,8%) gostariam de ter a silhueta menor que a autopercebida como usual. A presença de comportamentos de risco para TA foi 2,71 vezes maior (IC 95% = 1,02 - 7,18) entre os que desejavam ter silhueta menor que a usual e 2,64 vezes maior (IC 95% = 1,20 - 5,80) entre aqueles que desejavam ter silhueta menor que a considerada mais saudável, quando comparados com os que estavam satisfeitos com a sua silhueta. CONCLUSÃO: A alta frequência de insatisfação com o corpo encontrada pode estar colaborando para ocorrência de comportamentos de risco para TA nos bailarinos investigados.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Great concern with physical appearance and fitness as well as constant pressure in maintaining low body weight make ballet dancers a risk group for the development of eating disorders (ED). The objective of the present study was to evaluate the body image perception and its association with risk behavior for ED in professional ballet dancers. METHOD: Sixty-one dancers (39 women and 22 men) who represent the Brazilian classical ballet elite were assessed. The Portuguese versions of Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) and Bulimic Investigatory Test Edinburgh (BITE) questionnaires were used to evaluate de risk behavior for ED. Stunkard´s standard silhouettes were used to assess body image perception. Association between variables was evaluated through the prevalence ratio (PR) and respective 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS: Thirty-one dancers (50.8%) would like to have smaller silhouette than the usual. The presence of risk behavior for ED was 2.71 times higher (CI 95%=1.02-7.18) among those who would like to have smaller silhouette than the usual and 2.64 times higher (CI 95% = 1.20 - 5.80) among those who would like to have smaller silhouette than the ones considered healthier. CONCLUSION: The high frequency of body dissatisfaction found can be collaborating for the onset of risk behavior for ED in professional ballet dancers.
