In this study comparing 41 eating disorder patients and 34 female controls, the video distortion technique was used to test the accuracy of body size estimation and to assess the ideal body image. No difference was found in the estimation of actual body sizes, although the accuracy of estimation was quite variable in both bulimics and anorexics. With regard to the ideal body image, significant differences were found: All bulimics and 92.6% of the controls wished to be thinner versus 42.9% of the anorexics (23.8% wished to be larger). Looking at subjective body experience, as measured with a self-report questionnaire (Body Attitudes Test), body dissatisfaction appeared to be negatively correlated with the ideal body image but not with the estimation of actual body sizes.
在这项对41名饮食失调患者和34名女性对照者进行比较的研究中，采用视频失真技术来测试身体尺寸估计的准确性并评估理想身体形象。在实际身体尺寸的估计方面未发现差异，尽管贪食症患者和厌食症患者的估计准确性都有很大差异。关于理想身体形象，发现了显著差异：所有贪食症患者和92.6%的对照者希望变瘦，而厌食症患者中这一比例为42.9%（23.8%希望变胖）。从通过自我报告问卷（身体态度测试）测量的主观身体体验来看，身体不满似乎与理想身体形象呈负相关，但与实际身体尺寸的估计无关。
