Purpose: How is body image and body pressure among young athletes in water sports and gymnastics compared to athletes in handball – a literature study Method: This is a literature study where searches for research articles were conducted on Google Scholar and Pubmed. The articles are from several countries. Analysis of selected articles was carried out considering the PRISMA guidelines. PICO was used to formulate the research question. Results: Body image among young athletes in the sports of water sports, gymnastics, and handball is generally poorer than in control groups. There is also a tendency for body image to worsen as the level of competition increases. Conclusion: The research articles suggest that there is a perceived poor body image and body pressure among athletes in the three selected sports. Since the prevalence of a perceived negative body image is not provided in the selected handball articles, it cannot be determined whether there is any difference in the perception of body image among athletes in these three sports.
Hensikt: Hvordan er kroppsbilde og kroppspress blant unge utøvere i vannsport og turn kontra utøvere i håndball – en litteraturstudie Metode: Dette er en litteraturstudie hvor det er gjort søk etter forskningsartikler på Google Scholar og PubMed. Artiklene er fra flere land. Analyse av valgte artikler ble gjennomført i lys av PRISMA sitt skjema. Det er benyttet PICO for å komme fram til problemstilling. Resultat: Kroppsbilde blant unge utøvere i idrettsgrenene vannsport, turn og håndball er generelt dårligere enn kontrollgrupper. Det er også en tendens til at kroppsbilde blir verre ettersom nivået i idretten øker. Konklusjon: Forskningsartiklene tyder på at det er opplevd dårlig kroppsbilde og kroppspress hos utøvere i de valgte tre idrettsgrenene. Da det ikke er oppgitt prevalens av et opplevd negativt kroppsbilde hos utvalgte håndballartikler, kan det ikke slås fast om det er noen forskjell på opplevelsen av kroppsbilde blant utøverne i disse tre idrettsgrenene.
