This study assesses the psychosocial factors of 27 patients diagnosed of Anorexia Nervosa and studies them in three different context: the age at which the illness appears, presence or absence of bulimic episodes and the evolution of the illness. The masculine sex and the lower middle class are factors that appear to be associated with an unfavorable evolution. Finally there is a discussion about the relevance of the different psychosocial factors.
