Our findings indicate higher scores for female athletes with regard to the bulimia and preoccupation with food subscale compared with other the groups (P &lt; 0.05). Moreover, we observed that non‐athlete males were more likely to engage in binge eating compared with athletes of the same sex (P &lt; 0.05). Finally, females had higher scores on the oral self subscale than males, regardless of athletic group (P &lt; 0.05).
