| Abstract | The study reported here assessed individuals' selection of excessive exercise dependent behaviors as they relate to self-esteem, family environment, and perceptions of family members exhibiting dysfunctional behaviors or addictions. A survey was taken of exercisers from a stratified random sample of competitive triathletes selected from the national membership of TRI FED USA (N=112), from voluntary participants (N=185) in the 1991 Gatorade Ironman World championship, and from a national random sample (N=520) of health club members. Participants from TRI FED and the health clubs completed demographic information sheets (assessing addictive/obsessive behaviors in athletes and family members), the Exercise Enjoyment Questionnaire (EEQ), and the Perceived Family Environment Questionnaire (PFEQ). Participants from the Gatorade championship were given the same forms (excluding the PFEQ and the family portion of the demographic questionnaire). Exercisers self-selected the exercise category that best fit their exercise behavior from the following: low level, moderate, and heavy exerciser. Exercise dependence was found to occur in 9 percent of exercisers and in larger numbers as exercise intensity increased; the dependent exercisers had significantly higher levels of psychological and physical dependence than non-dependent exercisers as well as family histories of dysfunctional behavior. Eight tables display the survey results. (Contains 23 references.) (CK) |
