同伴肥胖谈论对青少年进食障碍的影响机制与预防策略

Mechanisms underlying the effect of peer fat talk on eating disorder in adolescents and prevention strategies

摘要

进食障碍对青少年的身心健康具有重大影响,而同伴肥胖谈论是青少年进食障碍的重要风险因素。本文回顾了同伴肥胖谈论影响青少年进食障碍的三条核心路径:自我客体化、身体不满与负性情绪。在此基础上,从削弱同伴消极影响、促进身体接纳及传授情绪调节策略三个层面,梳理了适用于我国中小学生的预防策略。未来应进一步开发综合性预防方案并对其效果进行验证,以降低青少年进食障碍的发生风险。

Abstract

Eating disorders pose a serious threat to adolescents' physical and mental health. Peer fat talk is increasingly recognized as a key risk factor for the development and maintenance of eating disorders among adolescents. In this review, three main pathways between peer fat talk and adolescent eating disorder risks are identified, namely self-objectification, body dissatisfaction, and negative affect. Accordingly, three school-based prevention strategies are put forward, by minimizing negative peer influence, fostering body acceptance, and equipping adolescents with emotional regulation skills. Future research should prioritize the development and rigorous empirical testing of comprehensive prevention programs tailored to reduce eating disorder risks among Chinese adolescents.
