Description
Amandine Franzoni and co-authors surveyed nearly seven hundred teenage athletes on disordered eating and its social and emotional roots, in work published in 2025. Separate models were built for girls and boys, based on an adult framework that had not been tested in young athletes.
For both sexes, social pressure and its internalization fed body dissatisfaction, which in turn fed disordered eating. Girls showed extra paths through poor emotion control and low self esteem. Boys showed extra paths through sport weight pressure and low mood. Starting models fit poorly and had to be reshaped to reveal these links. The authors say prevention should be tailored by gender if the patterns hold.
