Previous research indicates that college athletes are at higher risk for developing eating disorders compared to the general population (Defeciani, 2016; Gaines & Burnett, 2014; McLester, Hardin, & Hoppe, 2014). The Self-Discrepancy Theory (SDT) has good support as a model of body image (Heron & Smyth, 2013). However, eating disorder risk (EDR) in college athletes has not been assessed through measures grounded in SDT. This study is the first to examine two measures grounded in SDT, Figure Rating Scale (FRS) and Body Image Questionnaire (BIQ), and their ability to predict EDR in college athletes. Participants consisted of 200 college athletes who participated via survey on Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk). This study utilized a quantitative research design. Findings indicate that both measures, FRS and BIQ, are strong predictors for EDR. Of the two measures, the FRS presented with greater predictive power when compared to the BIQ and could be used alone when measuring EDR. Implications for clinicians, athletic staff, and others involved with college athletes are discussed.
