Body image change is an important component of the treatment of eating disorders, and cognitive behavioral body image therapy has substantial empirical support as efficacious in the improvement of body image difficulties and disorders. Most evidence comes from randomized, controlled, outcome studies and does not examine effectiveness for persons with clinical eating disorders in the context of "usual care" settings. The present study was conducted in a private practice and assessed 30 women with a range of eating disorder diagnoses. Following manualized group treatment based on Cash's (1997) The Body Image Workbook, clients reported reduced body image dysphoria, greater body and appearance satisfaction on several dimensions, less psychological investment in their appearance, and a better evaluation of their fitness/health. The study's limitations and implications are discussed.
身体意象改变是饮食失调治疗的一个重要组成部分,认知行为身体意象疗法在改善身体意象问题和失调方面有大量实证支持,效果显著。大多数证据来自随机对照结果研究,并未考察在“常规护理”环境下对临床饮食失调患者的有效性。本研究在一家私人诊所进行,评估了30名患有一系列饮食失调诊断的女性。在基于卡什(1997年)的《身体意象工作手册》进行的标准化团体治疗后,客户报告称身体意象烦躁感减轻,在几个维度上对身体和外表的满意度更高,对外表的心理投入减少,对自身健康状况的评价更好。文中讨论了该研究的局限性和意义。
