Passion, Perfectionism and Sports Commitment as Covariates of the Risk of Exercise Addiction

Exercise addiction is a behavioral addictions without diagnostic criteria due to incomparable antecedents, and research based on risk rather than dysfunctionality. The risk of exercise addiction (REA) shares substantial variance with passion, perfectionism, and commitment to sport. However, their contributionb to REA is unknown. Thus, this study researched this issue by consideriung gender, competition status, and individual vs. team sports. An international sample of 1,003 regular exercisers (46.86% males) completed instruments to assess REA, passion, perfectionism and sports commitment. All measures showed medium to strong correlations with the REA. A bootstrapped hierarchical regression yielded six statistically significant predictors (exercise volume and intensity, harmonious and obsessive passion, rigid perfectionism, and constrained commitment), sharing 42.7% of the variance with the REA. Three bootstrapped univariate tests yielded gender, competition status, and sports-form differences in REA when the predictors were not included in the model as covariates. However, all group differences vanished when the predictors were controlled-

运动成瘾是一类缺乏明确诊断标准的行为成瘾，这源于其诱因具有不可比性，且现有研究多基于风险视角而非功能障碍视角。运动成瘾风险（Risk of Exercise Addiction, REA）与运动热情、完美主义及运动承诺存在显著的方差共享关系，但上述因素对运动成瘾风险的具体贡献程度仍尚不明确。为此，本研究纳入性别、竞赛状态以及个人/团体运动类型作为考察变量，对该问题展开探究。本研究招募了来自全球的1003名常规运动参与者（其中男性占比46.86%），采用相关量表分别评估其运动成瘾风险、运动热情、完美主义及运动承诺水平。所有测量量表均与运动成瘾风险呈现中等至强相关关系。采用自助法分层回归分析，最终筛选出6个具有统计学意义的预测变量：运动负荷与强度、和谐式与强迫式运动热情、严苛型完美主义以及约束型运动承诺，上述变量可解释运动成瘾风险42.7%的方差变异。未将上述预测变量作为协变量纳入模型时，三项自助法单变量检验结果显示，运动成瘾风险在性别、竞赛状态以及运动类型上均存在显著组间差异。但当控制上述预测变量后，所有组间差异均不复存在。
