DXA, Health Beliefs, and Osteoporosis Prevention Behaviors
Personal knowledge gained from DXAs increased perceived susceptibility to osteoporosis, calcium intake, and use of osteoporosis preventing medications and appears to be an effective intervention in promoting OPB in younger postmenopausal women
Nutrient intake of women runners and nonrunners
The nutrient intakes of women who ran at different levels of intensity and the relationship between nutrient intake and ovulatory disturbances were studied. Ninety-five women, including sedentary non-runners (n = 16), low-level runners (n = 27), medium-level runners (n = 29), and high-level runners (n = 23), completed data for a 3-day nutritional assessment. The high-level runners met the Food and Nutrition Board's Recommended Daily Allowances (R…
Body‐fat measurements and athletic menstrual irregularity
The purpose of this study was to compare four measurements used as estimates of body fat that have been used in previous studies to determine whether the association between body fat and athletic menstrual irregularity (AMI) is measurement dependent. In a sample of 112 marathon runners, 94 responded to questions regarding their menstrual cycle. Of these, 30 (32%) reported irregular or absent menses, and 64 (68%) reported regular menses. Of the 30…
The meanings of menopause
Multiple meanings have been assigned to menopause and to women experiencing menopause. Meanings are not inherent in reality but are assigned by humans in response to interaction. Once meanings are assigned to entities, they become coercive and influence interactions. Freidson's (1988) theoretical framework includes the imputation of responsibility, legitimacy, and seriousness to a deviance or illness and provides the basis for an analysis of the …
Physical, psychosocial, menstrual changes/risks, and addiction in the female marathon and nonmarathon runner
From a sample of marathon (N = 57) and nonmarathon (N = 38) female runners physical, psychosocial, menstrual changes/risks and addictive behaviors were identified. There was a high incidence of knee injury in both groups of runners. Marathon runners had a significantly higher incidence of both heel pain and stress fractures. Psychosocial variables of anxiety, self‐esteem, family/spouse relationships and addictive behaviors did not differ signific…
