Purpose: The purpose of this study was to survey and compare physical competencies (self-report and objective) and nutritional attitudes among active and inactive women.
Methods: A sample of 100 adult women from Tabriz was selected for this study. They were divided into two homogeneous groups: an active group (n=50) and an inactive group (n=50). Cluster sampling was used to select the participants. The variables of this study were measured using the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26), the short form of the physical self-descriptive questionnaire developed by Marsh et al. (PSDQ-S), three physical readiness tests, and body mass index. Independent t-tests were used to compare eating attitudes and physical self-perception between the two groups. MANOVA was used to compare the subscales of these variables. Paired-samples t-tests were used to compare the Z scores of objective and subjective physical-motor fitness.
Results: The results showed that the active group had significantly lower rates of eating disorders (P=0.0001), higher mean scores of physical self-perception (P=0.001), higher levels of physical readiness (P=0.0001), and a stronger correlation between objective and subjective physical-motor fitness.
Conclusion: Based on the significant differences found in the results, it can be concluded that physical activity can be effective in reducing eating disorders and promoting positive and realistic physical self-perception in adult women.
