Family features of the first 50 anorexia nervosa patients referred to a psychiatrist from a defined geographic area are documented. Information about the families was obtained from personal interviews with the parents during the course of the patients' treatment. High socio-economic class, absence of non-white population, older age of parents, instability factors in the parents' backgrounds and high incidence of both physical and psychiatric illness in the parents suggest multiple factors may be aetiological. Possible pathogenic factors are equally distributed between mothers and fathers.
记录了来自特定地理区域的首批50名转诊至精神科医生处的神经性厌食症患者的家庭特征。关于这些家庭的信息是在患者治疗过程中通过与父母进行个人访谈获得的。高社会经济阶层、无非白人人口、父母年龄较大、父母背景中的不稳定因素以及父母身体和精神疾病的高发病率表明，多种因素可能是病因。可能的致病因素在母亲和父亲之间分布均等。
