There are anecdotal claims that eating disorder patients perceive themselves as highly controlled by the family and by society, but that they do not show assertive behaviour towards controllers. Anorexic and bulimic females were compared with female psychiatric patients, dieters and non-dieting controls on measures of eating disorder symptomatology, locus of control, assertiveness, inwardly directed hostility, family control and family encouragement of independence. Eating disorder patients reported significantly more external control, more inwardly directed hostility, less self-assertion and less family encouragement of independence than dieters and non-dieting controls, but they did not differ from psychiatric controls. Most of the characteristics seen in eating disorder subjects were also reported by psychiatric controls.
有一些传闻称，饮食失调患者认为自己受到家庭和社会的高度控制，但他们对控制者却没有表现出坚定的行为。在饮食失调症状、控制点、坚定性、内向性敌意、家庭控制以及家庭对独立性的鼓励等方面，对神经性厌食症和神经性贪食症女性患者与女性精神病患者、节食者和非节食对照组进行了比较。与节食者和非节食对照组相比，饮食失调患者报告的外部控制更多、内向性敌意更多、自我坚定性更少且家庭对独立性的鼓励更少，但他们与精神病对照组没有差异。精神病对照组也报告了饮食失调患者所表现出的大多数特征。
