To investigate the social support networks of patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN).
Social support was measured using the Significant Others Scale for 44 patients with AN, 81 patients with BN, and 86 polytechnic students.
Eating disorder patients had smaller social networks than the students. AN patients were significantly less likely than BN patients to have a spouse or partner as a support figure. Both AN and BN patients reported less actual emotional and practical support than students. AN patients perceived their social support to be adequate, whereas BN patients were dissatisfied with their support. Patients set lower ideals for support than the students. Social support was not correlated with duration of illness.
AN and BN patients have deficient social networks. In BN patients there is disturbance in both the size and perceived adequacy of social relationships.
调查神经性厌食症（AN）和神经性贪食症（BN）患者的社会支持网络。
使用重要他人量表对44例AN患者、81例BN患者和86名理工专业学生的社会支持情况进行测量。
饮食失调患者的社交网络比学生的小。AN患者比BN患者更不可能有配偶或伴侣作为支持人物。AN和BN患者获得的实际情感和实际支持均少于学生。AN患者认为他们的社会支持足够，而BN患者对其支持不满意。患者对支持设定的理想标准低于学生。社会支持与病程无关。
AN和BN患者的社会网络存在缺陷。BN患者在社交关系的规模和感知到的充足性方面均存在障碍。
