Psychol Med 2017 Jul 26; 1–12 Ein gestörtes Körperbild ist ein Schlüsselsymptom bei Magersucht. Haben Magersüchtige eine verzerrte Wahrnehmung? Oder liegt hier eine affektive Störung vor? Eine Tübinger Arbeitsgruppe hat sich das Phänomen genauer angeschaut.

Different Parts

The aim was to explore the body-image perception of a group of 20 hospitalised anorexic patients, aged 18 to 21 years, undergoing a period of treatment. The instrument used was the Askevold nonverbal perception test as modified by Allamani and colleagues in 1978 to assess perception of the dimensions of different parts of the body by exploiting the capacity to project them into space. The four parts were the head, the thoracic area, the abdominal area, and the pelvic area. Analysis of responses indicated that anorexic patients overestimated the abdominal and the pelvic areas much more than the 20 members of the control group (50% vs 30%). The areas of the head and thorax were perceived almost in their real dimensions by the anorexic patients but were underestimated by the control group.
