This paper reviews four areas of research into anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN). First, in terms of diagnosis, the psychological concerns about weight and shape are now addressed in BN, bringing it more in line with the related disorder, anorexia nervosa. Second, studies of psychiatric comorbidity confirm the overlap between eating disorders and depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, substance abuse, and personality disorder. Nevertheless, there are reasons to accept the distinct qualities of each syndrome, and eating disorders are not merely a variant of these other conditions. Third, treatment advances in BN involve mainly cognitive-behavioural or interpersonal psycho-therapies and pharmacotherapies primarily with antidepressants. The effect of combining more than one approach is beginning to be addressed. Finally, outcome studies involving people with both AN and BN have shown that the disorders “cross over” and that both conditions have a high rate of relapse. A renewed interest in the treatment of AN is needed.

Men With Eating Disorders

Research on eating disorders and body-image concerns has traditionally focused on White women and girls. Only a few studies have addressed the specific needs of racially and ethnically diverse men with eating disorders. This article reviews and presents research findings on contextual risk factors that contribute to eating disorders and body-image concerns in men and boys. First, important race- and ethnicity-related factors such as racial identity, acculturation, and experiences of discrimination are briefly discussed. Risk factors relevant for this population, including race-related factors, visual and social media, sexual orientation, muscularity, weight and obesity, and substance abuse, are then explored. Finally, implications for service providers and areas for future research are identified.
