The attitudes to body image of a group of nursing students were measured by a form of the repertory grid. These responses are compared with responses of low weight and refed anorexia nervosa subjects. A high incidence (20 percent) of self-reported amenorrhoea associated with dieting and weight loss was present in the nursing student group. Those subjects reporting such an experience were demonstrably different from both the remainder of the nursing student group and the anorectics. Major findings were the personal perception of themselves as more feeling and sexual despite a continuance of an apparent desire for a belly thinner than that actually perceived. These distinctions may reflect important psychological conflicts operative in development or continuance of anorexia nervosa.
通过一种格构 repertory grid 形式测量了一组护理专业学生对身体形象的态度。将这些反应与低体重和康复期神经性厌食症患者的反应进行了比较。护理专业学生组中，因节食和体重减轻而自我报告闭经的发生率较高（20%）。报告有这种经历的受试者与护理专业学生组的其他成员以及神经性厌食症患者明显不同。主要发现是，尽管他们明显希望腹部比实际感知的更瘦，但他们对自己的个人认知却是更有情感和性感。这些差异可能反映了在神经性厌食症的发展或持续过程中起作用的重要心理冲突。
