“…Norwegian and American college students (Perry, Silvera, Neilands, Rosenvinge, & Hanssen, 2008) already found cross-sectional evidence for the relation between parental bonding (low care and over protectiveness), poor self-esteem and a general measure of eating disturbances.…”

“…Moreover, researchers (Perry, Silvera, Neilands, Rosenvinge, & Hanssen, 2008;Cella, Iannaccone, & Cotrufo, 2014) have begun to consider the existence of possible mediating factors between parental bonding and eating pathologies: specifically, parental bonding has a relevant impact factor on offspring's self-concept and low self-esteem that, in turn, affects ED vulnerability. The experience of shame (Murray, Waller, & Legg, 2000) and the development of unhealthy core beliefs (Meyer & Gillings, 2004) appear to be important in determining the effect that perceived parental style has on bulimic psychopathology in a non-clinical group of women.…”

Considering how to improve efficacy of therapeutic strategies, the overall objective of the present study was to investigate the extent of eating concerns and to identify predictors associated with the severity of disordered eating symptomatology among people with eating pathologies. We screened 80 female eating disordered patients, ranging from 13 to 40 years, by means of self-report measures of parental behavior as perceived by the offspring, self-esteem, perfectionism, body shame and eating disorder severity. Self-reported weight and height were obtained. The diagnosis of bulimia nervosa resulted to be associated with a greater severity of the eating symptomatology. Maladaptive perfectionism, body shame and self-esteem, significantly predicted the level of eating concerns. The recognition of potential maintaining factors may support the choice of particular therapeutic strategies to improve the treatment of eating pathologies and their outcomes.

“…Reviews of this literature (Ward, Ramsay & Treasure, 2000;Tetley, Moghaddam, Dawson & Rennoldson, 2014) supports attachment findings in the sense that overall, eating disorder patients across diagnostic groups tend to remember their parents as less affectionate and more controlling compared to normal controls. However, this may seem like a general vulnerability as the same pattern apply to other mental disorders as well, as it is related to perfectionism, but also to a poor self-concept and cognitive beliefs like being internally flawed and defective (Ward et al, 2000;Perry et al, 2008).…”

The previous papers in this series (Rosenvinge & Pettersen, 2014a,b) outlined a historical panorama and presented knowledge about the distribution of eating disorders in various populations as well as about putative risk factors. This final paper focuses on social epidemiology, notably the current status of treatment dissemination and prevention research. We also discuss some comorbidity findings and transdiagnostic issues as an alternative to the DSM based definition of an epidemiological case, and how such an alternative definition may introduce new perspectives of prevention. Key words: eating disorders, epidemiology, reviewThe authors declare no conflict of interest in preparing this work 3 The present article is the final one of three about the epidemiology of eating disorders. The first one (Rosenvinge & Pettersen, 2014a) outlined basic epidemiological concepts, approaches and issues. In addition, it outlined a historical panorama of the epidemiology of eating disorders up to the early 1990s depicting, the evolvement of eating disorders from being one, curious and rare disorder (i.e., anorexia nervosa) to a set of disorders distributed in the population to an extent which has caught public concern and scientific effort for the past 30 or 40 years. This evolvement has resulted in case definitions through the DSM and ICD manuals, and being worldwide disseminated they haves had a major impact on case definition-and identification methods in epidemiological eating disorder research.The second paper in this series (Rosenvinge & Pettersen, 2014b) outlined recent knowledge about descriptive epidemiology; how many who actually have a DSM eating disorder or significant eating problems at a given point of time (i.e., the point prevalence), or in the past (i.e., the lifetime prevalence), as well as about the number of new cases appearing per year (i.e., the incidence). In addition, we focused on issues within analytic epidemiology, notably what is known about risk factors for developing eating disorders or for staying ill for a longer period of time.Case identification methods require a case definition which is useful for analytic and social epidemiological purposes, and not just for describing the prevalence or incidence.Traditionally, the DSM taxonomy has provided a gold standard. This may be questioned in view of mental disorders most likely to come along with eating disorders, most likely to affect their course, and where the comorbidity may point to transdiagnostic factors possibly relevant to epidemiological research. The first aim of this paper is to discuss the relevance and implications of such perspectives in constructing an epidemiological case definition.Social epidemiology becomes relevant when we have some answers from descriptive epidemiology to the "how many-questions", and from analytical epidemiology to the "who, and "why"-questions. One part of social epidemiology concerns prevention, and which may take the approach of health promotion at a universal (general population) level, i.e., by...
