Resumo |
This study investigated the Tripartite Influence Model of body image and eating disturbance in adolescent females. The model was found to be a satisfactory representation of the social, cultural and individual factors proposed to promote body dissatisfaction, dieting and bulimic behaviours in 14 to 18 year old girls. The portfolio presents four case situations in which the specialist knowledge of a clinical psychologist has shown to be beneficial to pediatric patients, their families, and medical staff at a major metropolitan hospital. |
