Resumo(s)
The search for movement plasticity causes
dancers to seek to achieve and maintain low
body weight, which can lead to dissatisfaction with their body image and to eating
disorders. The purpose of this study was
to analyze body image satisfaction and the
presence of eating disorders and associated
factors in professional ballroom dancers in
Brazil. Three hundred and twenty dancers
took part via a self-reported questionnaire.
The majority of the dancers proved to be
dissatisfied with their body image; the increase with age of body mass index (BMI)
influenced the dissatisfaction due to excess
weight. It is concluded that body image is
associated with eating disorders, age, and
BMI in ballroom dancers
