The purpose of the present study was to investigate risk factors associated with premature dropout in the treatment of anorexia nervosa (AN).
Eighty-one women who received free inpatient treatment for AN on a clinical research unit at a university-based psychiatric facility participated in this study. Demographic, lifetime, and baseline clinical characteristics as well as self-report measures of eating disorder symptomatology and associated psychopathology were assessed upon admission.
Results indicated that AN subtype was [corrected] modestly predictive of treatment dropout.
With the exception of AN subtype [corrected], successful completion of inpatient treatment may be unrelated to the severity of eating disorder symptomatology and associated psychopathology. Continued empirical research into factors that influence treatment dropout is clearly needed.
本研究旨在调查神经性厌食症(AN)治疗中与提前退出相关的风险因素。
81名在大学附属精神科机构的临床研究单位接受免费住院治疗的AN女性参与了本研究。入院时评估了人口统计学、终生和基线临床特征以及饮食失调症状和相关精神病理学的自我报告测量。
结果表明,AN亚型[校正后]对治疗退出有适度的预测作用。
除AN亚型[校正后]外,住院治疗的成功完成可能与饮食失调症状和相关精神病理学的严重程度无关。显然需要对影响治疗退出的因素继续进行实证研究。
