Measures were made of body image and personality features in patients with anorexia nervosa and obesity. It was hypothesized that obese and anorexic patients would display similar body image disturbances characterized by relative overestimation of body size in comparison with control subjects. Body image was measured by both a distorting photograph technique (a general measure) and a visual size estimation apparatus (for specific body regions). Personality features were assessed by the Eysenck Personality Inventory and a modified version of Rotter's Locus of Control Scale. Results indicated that both obese (N=16) and anorexic (N=18) subjects significantly differed from three control groups (P less than 0.01) in body size estimation on a general measure of body image. A measure of specific body regions did not differentiate between groups. For anorexic and obese patients, body size estimates were significantly correlated with personality features.
对神经性厌食症患者和肥胖症患者的身体意象及人格特征进行了测量。研究假设，肥胖症患者和神经性厌食症患者会表现出相似的身体意象障碍，其特征是与对照组相比，对身体大小的相对高估。身体意象通过一种变形照片技术（一种通用测量方法）和一种视觉大小估计仪器（针对特定身体部位）进行测量。人格特征通过艾森克人格问卷和Rotter控制点量表的一个修订版本进行评估。结果表明，在身体意象的一项通用测量中，肥胖症患者（N = 16）和神经性厌食症患者（N = 18）在身体大小估计方面均与三个对照组存在显著差异（P < 0.01）。针对特定身体部位的测量未在各群体之间做出区分。对于神经性厌食症患者和肥胖症患者，身体大小估计与人格特征显著相关。
