Abstract:
Eating disorder prevalence is increasing in males, perhaps more rapidly than in females. The research investigated these factors in relation to males’ eating disorder symptomatology in the general population by using eye-tracking during reading as a novel and implicit measure. Participants’ eating disorder symptomatology was then assessed, and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Results showed processing of characters’ emotional responses to body- and perfectionism-related events for third-person scenarios was related to eating disorder symptomatology. Findings support theories that include body- and perfectionism-related cognitive biases as underlying mechanisms of eating disorder symptomatology and the use of implicit measures of cognitive processes underlying males’ eating disorder symptomatology.
