Eating disorders are distinct severe disturbances in eating behavior (e.g., Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified; American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2000, pg.583). Sociocultural, biological, and psychological factors are intricate in the development of eating disorders (Beals & Manore, 1999; Beals, 2004); though causation may be multifactoral. Extensive research has been conducted in eating disorders and body image disturbances, and many psychologists (e.g. Daniel & Bridges, 2010; Fredrickson & Roberts, 1997; Mazzeo & Espelage, 2002; Tylka & Subich, 2004) have presented model frameworks that eloquently combine variables to explain eating disorder and body image dissatisfaction symptomology in males and females. In the last decade, eating disorders and body image disturbances in the collegiate athletic population has received increasing attention (Black et al., 2003; Greenleaf et al., 2009; Johnson et al. 1999; Petrie et al., 2008; Sundgot-Borgen & Torstveit, 2004). Older research by Johnson, Powers, and Dick (1999) revealed in a hetergeneous sample of collegiate athletes that both females and males were at risk for eating disorders (males: 38% at risk for Bulimia Nervosa and 9.5% risk for Anorexia Nervosa; females: 38% at risk for Bulimia Nervosa and 34.75% at risk for Anorexia Nervosa). Whereas, more current research has estimated 20% for men (Petrie et al, 2008) and 25.5% for female collegiate athletes (Greenleaf et al., 2009). However, estimated prevalence in these studies have been conducted in an anonymous and controlled research environments; thus no data has been presented while examining eating disorder symptomology in a practical setting (pre-participation physical examinations [PPE]) screening for associated risk factors in collegiate athletes. The sport context is influential on athletes in positive as well as negative ways, thus it is expected that the sport environment could have a considerable impact on the occurrence of eating disorders. Sports can be perceived as its own culture, with its own rules, customs and traditions, and expectations. A culture bound syndrome, as defined by Prince (1985), is “a collection of signs and symptoms (excluding notions of cause) which is restricted to a limited number of cultures primarily by reason of certain of their psychosocial features” (p.201). In a review, Keel and Klump (2003) suggested that Bulimia Nervosa may be a culture-bound syndrome, influenced by weight concerns, anonymous access to large quantities of food, and a motivation to prevent the effects of binge eating on weight through the use of inappropriate compensatory behavior (e.g. self-induced vomiting, excessive exercise, use of diet pills or laxatives, or fasting). Consequently, if the sport environment is
