Little is known about body images of siblings of patients with eating disorders. In this study we investigated body images of patients with anorexia or bulimia nervosa and of the patients' brothers and sisters. A computer program was employed that allows modeling perceived and desired body images of patients and family members. Patients, siblings and male and female control subjects rated their body images. The selected images were compared with anthropometric data. All subjects also filled out a body image questionnaire. Data from 30 patients, 38 siblings, and 60 control subjects are presented. Siblings did not differ from healthy control subjects. Self-ideal discrepancy was different in patients with anorexia and their sisters. Body image was more negative in patients than in their sisters. Siblings of patients with eating disorders seem to be rather unimpaired in terms of body image disturbances.
关于饮食失调患者兄弟姐妹的身体意象,我们所知甚少。在本研究中,我们调查了神经性厌食症或神经性贪食症患者及其兄弟姐妹的身体意象。我们使用了一个计算机程序,该程序可以对患者及其家庭成员所感知和期望的身体意象进行建模。患者、其兄弟姐妹以及男性和女性对照受试者对他们的身体意象进行了评分。将所选图像与人体测量数据进行了比较。所有受试者还填写了一份身体意象问卷。本文呈现了30名患者、38名兄弟姐妹和60名对照受试者的数据。兄弟姐妹与健康对照受试者没有差异。神经性厌食症患者与其姐妹的自我理想差异有所不同。患者的身体意象比其姐妹更消极。饮食失调患者的兄弟姐妹在身体意象障碍方面似乎未受太大影响。
