Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a mental disorder, affecting mainly females in society. Understanding partially the factor of the disorder, researchers also designed several therapies to alleviate AN. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on changing thought patterns of patients, and addressing inappropriate behaviors, is one of the beneficial therapies. In China, females whose disorder are caused by environmental factors are highly recommended to have CBT. To successfully realize the use of CBT to AN, we have to understand the strategy and treatment.

Research findings strongly suggest that cognitive behavioral therapy for the eating disorders (CBT-ED) is more effective than other treatments for bulimia nervosa (BN) and for binge eating disorder (BED), although interpersonal psychotherapy appears to be equally effective for BED. Evidence for the effectiveness of CBT-ED for the persistent (adult) form of anorexia nervosa (AN) is insufficient at present and is essentially absent for AN in adolescents except for some evidence from uncontrolled trials. This article begins with an overview of the early studies in the development of CBT-ED that showed a similar effectiveness of other symptom-focused psychotherapies—a finding that was neglected at the time. Later developments are then considered, including comparisons of CBT-ED with other psychotherapies, efforts to develop Internet-based training and treatment, and electronic applications for treatment. Finally, implications of the findings for future short- and long-term research and for clinical practice are considered.
