Relationship among Family, Peer Networks and Bulimic Symptomatology in College Women.
Pauls, Brian Scott; Daniels, Thomas
Canadian Journal of Counselling, v34 n4 p260-72 Oct 2000
Tests explanatory power of a sociocultural model in predicting bulimic symptomatology in a sample of college women (N=141). High scores on the Bulimia Test were negatively correlated with scores on the cohesion subscale of the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale. Pressures to diet from family and friends were also found to be associated with higher rates of bulimic symptomatology. (Author/JDM)
