| Abstract | Conscious of the importance of studying eating disorders in adolescents, this work identified the onset of body image disorders and bulimia nervosa in 187 adolescents. Using the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ), it was shown that 48.13% of adolescents displayed body image disorders. The application of the Bulimic Investigatory Test, Edinbugh (BITE) demonstrated that 3.74 and 39.04% of adolescents presented a high or medium level of eating disorder, respectively. In the subscale of BITE severity, it was detected that 2.67 and 7.49% of adolescents showed high and moderated gravity of bulimia nervosa. The results revealed some adolescents with attitudes and behaviors that favor the development of bulimia nervosa, due to a distorted perception of their body image. Therefore, educational campaigns are necessary to clarify that the cult of the body is associated with serious eating disorders. |
