The authors examined gender differences in bulimia-related personality variables among late adolescents with chronic bulimic symptoms.
Ninety-seven females and 14 males were included in the study. They participated in surveys in 1982, and again in 1992, and at each session reported elevated bulimic symptoms. Each respondent completed subscales of the Eating Disorders Inventory (Bulimia, Drive for Thinness, Perfectionism, and Interpersonal Distrust).
Even compared to males with similar levels of chronic bulimic symptoms, females with chronic bulimic symptoms reported more drive for thinness; compared to females with chronic bulimic symptoms, males with chronic bulimic symptoms reported more perfectionism and interpersonal distrust.
Late adolescent males and females with chronic bulimic symptoms can be distinguished on the basis of personality features. These findings have implications for theory, as well as for clinical assessment and therapeutics.
作者研究了患有慢性贪食症状的青少年晚期人群中与贪食相关的人格变量的性别差异。
该研究纳入了97名女性和14名男性。他们在1982年参与了调查，并于1992年再次参与，且在每次调查中均报告有较高的贪食症状。每位受访者完成了饮食失调量表的子量表（贪食、追求瘦身、完美主义和人际不信任）。
即使与具有相似慢性贪食症状水平的男性相比，患有慢性贪食症状的女性报告有更强的瘦身驱动力；与患有慢性贪食症状的女性相比，患有慢性贪食症状的男性报告有更强的完美主义和人际不信任。
患有慢性贪食症状的青少年晚期男性和女性可根据人格特征加以区分。这些发现对理论以及临床评估和治疗均有启示意义。
