Abstract

The objective of this study was to explore and compare Executive Functions (EF) and non-verbal memory of a group of male bodybuilders who have symptoms of Muscle Dysmorphia (MD) with a group of men who have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder symptoms (OCD) and a control group. It was found by administering neuropsychological tests that the bodybuilders show a limited capacity of EF in the inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility, also moderate visuospatial deficits in non-verbal memory, whereas the group with OCD had higher performance deficiencies in the same skills. It is suggested to conduct more studies to avoid fragmented or contradictory knowledge between MD and OCD.
