Body Image, Eating Disorders and Obesity: An Integrative Guide for Assessment - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Research has shown that body image plays a clear role in the aetiology, assessment and treatment of eating disorders and obesity. This edited volume integrates research findings on body image with empirically supported assessment and intervention guidelines for anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorders, obesity and other body image disorders and concerns. Filled with case examples and detailed protocols, the book presents an interdisciplinary model, yielding important biological, developmental, physiological, social and psychological aspects of these disorders. Through coverage of physical and psychosocial diagnosis, psychopharmacology, treatment planning and empirically-sound intervention protocols, this book provides practitioners with practical guidelines, as well as step-by-step intervention programmes, with an emphasis on flexible cognitive-behavioural treatments that are supported by research.
