Abstract
BEATO FERNANDEZ, Luis; RAMIREZ ESPADAS, Cyntia; O'FERRALL GONZALEZ, Cristina and RODRIGUEZ CANO, Teresa. Influence of parental rearing styles on attitude towards change in eating disorders. Rev. Mex. de trastor. aliment [online]. 2016, vol.7, n.1, pp.56-63. ISSN 2007-1523. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmta.2016.03.003.
Objective:
To evaluate the relationships between "parental rearing styles" and "attitude towards change" in eating disorders patients according to DSM-IV-TR (American Psychiatric Association -APA-, 1994).
Methods:
A total of 166 patients was evaluated: 66 (39.8%) patients met criteria for bulimia nervosa, 49 (29.5%) patients met criteria for anorexia nervosa and 51 (30.7%) patients met criteria for an eating disorder not otherwise specified. All the patients completed a set of self-administered questionnaires to evaluate their family relationships (APGAR familiar), their memories of parental upbringing and their attitudes towards change (ACTA) after one year treatment.
Results:
A multiple regression analysis was performed. "overprotection " perceived during childhood was related to higher scores in "pre-contemplation " and lower scores in "action " and "maintenance ". On the other hand, "rejection " during upbringing was related to higher scores in "pre-contemplation " at one year follow-up regardless of family dysfunction. Finally, "warm " perceived was related to higher scores in "action" .
Conclusions:
These results show the relevance of breeding in treatment important aspects in eating disorders patients.
Keywords : Eating disorders; Attitudes towards change: Motivation to change.
