ABSTRACT Yoga practice is associated with improvements in eating disorder (ED) symptoms and body dissatisfaction. This study continued to evaluate this relationship while also assessing changes in variables negatively associated with ED symptoms (self-compassion, mindfulness, body appreciation, self-efficacy) that are emphasized throughout yoga. Men were also included in this study given studies have predominantly focused on women. Participants (N = 99, 77.8% women) were recruited from a university-implemented yoga course and completed assessments at the beginning (Time 1 (T1)) and end (Time 2 (T2)) of an eight-week yoga course meeting three times a week for fifty minutes. Body dissatisfaction (ps <.05) and ED pathology (p = .02) were lower at T2. Body appreciation (p < .001), self-compassion (p = .01), yoga self-efficacy (p = .004) were higher at T2. Some gender differences emerged. Men reported greater reductions in concern with being overweight, (Overweight Preoccupation) from T1 (M = 2.46, SD = 0.61) to T2 (M = 2.13, SD = 0.61) compared to women, T1 (M = 2.75, SD = 0.98) to T2 (M = 2.69, SD = 0.97) associated with yoga practice. Men also reported greater improvements in body satisfaction (Appearance Evaluation) from T1 (M = 3.60, SD = 0.49) to T2 (M = 3.90, SD = 0.34) compared with women, T1 (M = 3.48, SD = 0.58) to T2 (M = 3.39, SD = 0.52) associated with yoga practice. Results suggest yoga may be associated with concurrent changes in protective and risk factors for ED in a college population.

大学样本中的瑜伽练习：饮食失调、身体形象和相关因素随时间的相关变化

摘要 瑜伽练习与饮食失调 (ED) 症状和身体不满的改善有关。这项研究继续评估这种关系，同时还评估与整个瑜伽强调的 ED 症状（自我同情、正念、身体欣赏、自我效能）负相关的变量的变化。鉴于研究主要集中在女性身上，男性也被纳入了这项研究。参与者（N = 99，77.8% 女性）是从大学实施的瑜伽课程中招募的，并在为期八周的瑜伽课程会议的开始（时间 1 (T1)）和结束时（时间 2 (T2)）完成评估每周一次，每次五十分钟。身体不满意 (ps <.05) 和 ED 病理 (p = .02) 在 T2 较低。身体欣赏 (p < .001)、自我同情 (p = .01)、瑜伽自我效能 (p = . 004) 在 T2 时更高。出现了一些性别差异。与女性 T1（M = 2.75，SD = 0.98）相比，男性对超重的担忧（超重专注）从 T1（M = 2.46，SD = 0.61）降到 T2（M = 2.13，SD = 0.61）到与瑜伽练习相关的 T2 (M = 2.69, SD = 0.97)。与女性相比，男性还报告了从 T1（M = 3.60，SD = 0.49）到 T2（M = 3.90，SD = 0.34）的身体满意度（外观评估）的更大改善，T1（M = 3.48，SD = 0.58）到 T2 (M = 3.39, SD = 0.52) 与瑜伽练习相关。结果表明，瑜伽可能与大学人群中 ED 的保护和危险因素的同时变化有关。61) 到 T2 (M = 2.13, SD = 0.61) 与女性相比，T1 (M = 2.75, SD = 0.98) 到 T2 (M = 2.69, SD = 0.97) 与瑜伽练习相关。与女性相比，男性还报告了从 T1（M = 3.60，SD = 0.49）到 T2（M = 3.90，SD = 0.34）的身体满意度（外观评估）的更大改善，T1（M = 3.48，SD = 0.58）到 T2 (M = 3.39, SD = 0.52) 与瑜伽练习相关。结果表明，瑜伽可能与大学人群中 ED 的保护和危险因素的同时变化有关。61) 到 T2 (M = 2.13, SD = 0.61) 与女性相比，T1 (M = 2.75, SD = 0.98) 到 T2 (M = 2.69, SD = 0.97) 与瑜伽练习相关。与女性相比，男性还报告了从 T1（M = 3.60，SD = 0.49）到 T2（M = 3.90，SD = 0.34）的身体满意度（外观评估）的更大改善，T1（M = 3.48，SD = 0.58）到 T2 (M = 3.39, SD = 0.52) 与瑜伽练习相关。结果表明，瑜伽可能与大学人群中 ED 的保护和危险因素的同时变化有关。52) 与瑜伽练习有关。结果表明，瑜伽可能与大学人群中 ED 的保护和危险因素的同时变化有关。52) 与瑜伽练习有关。结果表明，瑜伽可能与大学人群中 ED 的保护和危险因素的同时变化有关。
