Abstract
Noticeable similarities were found in the psychosocial field by a comparison of a group of anorexia nervosa patients with a representative sample of normal controls. In particular, no confirmation could be found of the mother dominance coupled with the weak and frequently absent father, as postulated under the interactional model of anorexia nervosa. Empirical discriminate analyses of the role of individual family members are necessary.Keywords
