This study evaluated the psychometric properties of the German version of the 21-item Exercise Dependence Scale (EDS-G), which was administered in a large representative German sample (N = 1,611). In order to examine convergent validity, we also asked participants to answer the Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q). To investigate the discriminant validity, clients of fitness centers (N = 129), sport students (N = 85), and medical students (N = 129) filled out the EDS-G. In this German population-based sample, the seven-factor structure suggested by the original authors as well as a higher-order model (7 + 1 factor model) were supported. The total EDS-G scale showed an excellent internal reliability and was positively related to the EDE-Q total and subscale scores. The EDS-G scores differentiated between samples with varying degrees of exercise. In summary, the results indicate that the EDS-G is a psychometrically sound and potentially valid brief measure for the assessment of exercise dependence symptoms.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Excessive physical exercise combined with certain psychic and sociodemographic factors can lead to dependence. Objective: To examine which factors lead to the emergence of exercise dependence. Methods: Sample consisted of 103 men (mean age 27.3 years, SD 6.127) who performed exercises at gyms at least three times a week in the last year or more in Novi Pazar, Sjenica, Raska and Tutin, Serbia. Participants completed questionnaires and took appropriate tests. Results: Our results showed that there is no association between exercise dependence and financial status, number of siblings, level of education, family stability, health, and medication use among the interviewees. However, it was found that the degree of exercise dependence is associated with marital status and problems with the law. Regression analysis showed that body dysmorphia, body mass index and aggressiveness are better predictors of exercise dependence. Conclusion: People whose self-perception is dismorphic have lower self-esteem, and exercise in gyms to improve their physical appearance. If we consider other characteristics, such as unfavorable BMI, problems with the lаw and being single, it is hardly surprising these individuals cross the line between healthy exercise and exercise dependence. An important finding is that aggressiveness and exercise dependence are related to problems with the law due to aggression, and body dysmorphia. Level of Evidence; Diagnostic studies - Investigating a diagnostic test.

<p align="left">The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of exercise dependence and athlete burnout and their relationship between them and among demographic and sport characteristics in 449 athletes, 320 males and 129 females (Age: <em>M</em>= 19.71, <em>SD</em>= 6.62). All of them replied the Spanish versions of Exercise Dependence Scale-Revised (EDS-R) and reduced version of Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ). The results showed a risk of exercise dependence in 8.7% of the athletes, with statistically significant differences in age (a greater exercise dependence was found in athletes under the age of 18 years old), not in gender, sport dedication and type of sport. Regarding burnout, measured through its three dimensions, the data showed 4% for emotional/physical exhaustion (EFE) and 4.9% for sport devaluation (SD) and reduced sense of accomplishment (RSA). Men and team-sport athletes showed a greater RSA. Men and athletes over the age of 18 also showed more DS. As for sport dedication, participants who spent less time training had higher levels of RSA, whereas those who dedicated more time, had higher levels of EFE. Finally, the relationship between exercise dependence and burnout showed that all dimensions of burnout correlated positively with exercise dependence. </p>

Este estudio transversal tuvo como objetivo investigar el papel predictivo de la edad, la frecuencia de entrenamiento y el tiempo de práctica en el grado de dependencia del ejercicio (DE) de los atletas recreativos. participaron 159 atletas recreativos de atletismo, musculación y crossfit, con una edad media de 31.59 ± 7.98 años, del estado de Pernambuco. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron un cuestionario socio demográfico y la Exercise Dependence Scale-Revised. El análisis de los datos se realizó utilizando la correlación de Spearman y la Regresión Múltiple (p <0.05). Los resultados mostraron una correlación significativa y positiva (p <0.05) de la Frecuencia de entrenamiento con continuidad (r = 0.16), reducción en otras actividades (r = 0.27), falta de control (r = 0.24), tiempo (r = 0.25) y puntaje general de DE (r = 0.25). El análisis de regresión múltiple reveló que solo la frecuencia de entrenamiento tenía una predicción significativa y directa sobre las dimensiones de la DE. Específicamente, la frecuencia de entrenamiento semanal explica el 1% de la variación de continuidad, el 6% de la reducción en otras actividades, el 5% de la falta de control, el 5% del tiempo y el 57% de la puntuación general de DE. se concluye que la frecuencia semanal de entrenamiento parece ser un factor interviniente en el grado de DE en los atletas recreativos. This transversal study aimed to investigate the predictive role of age, training frequency and practice time on the degree of exercise dependence (ED) of recreational athletes. 159 recreational athletes participated in street racing, bodybuilding and crossfit, with an average age of 31,59 ± 7,98 years, from the state of Pernambuco. The instruments used were a sociodemographic questionnaire and Exercise Dependence Scale-Revised. Data analysis was conducted through Spearman correlation and multiple regression (p < 0,05). The results showed significant and positive correlation (p<0,05) of the training frequency with continuity (r=0,16), reduction of other activities (r=0,27), lack of Control (r=0,24), time (r=0,25) and General score of (r=0,25), Multiple regression analysis revealed that only the training frequency presented significant and direct prediction on the dimensions of DE, Specifically, the weekly training frequency explains 1% of the continuity variance, 6% of the reduction of other activities, 5% of the lack of Control, 5% of the time and 57% of the overall score of. It is concluded that the weekly training frequency seems to be an intervention factor in the degree of ED in recreational athletes.

Participaram 159 atletas recreacionais de corrida de rua, musculação e crossfit, com média de idade de 31,59 ± 7,98 anos, do estado de Pernambuco. Os instrumentos utilizados foram um questionário sociodemográfico e a Exercise Dependence Scale-Revised. A análise dos dados foi conduzida por meio da Correlação de Spearman e a Regressão Múltipla (p < 0,05). Os resultados evidenciaram correlação significativa e positiva (p<0.05) da Frequência de treino com continuidade (r=0,16), redução de outras atividades (r=0,27), falta de controle (r=0,24), tempo (r=0,25) e escore geral de DE (r=0,25). A análise de regressão múltipla revelou que apenas a frequência de treino apresentou predição significativa e direta sobre as dimensões de DE. Especificamente, a frequência semanal de treino explica 1% da variância da continuidade, 6% da redução de outras atividades, 5% da falta de controle, 5% do tempo e 57% do escore geral de DE. Conclui-se que a frequência semanal de treino parece ser um fator interveniente no grau de DE em atletas recreacionais.
