Mirror exposure therapy for body image disturbances and eating disorders: A review
2018, Clinical Psychology ReviewCitation Excerpt :Appearance related cognitive biases, both attentional and interpretive, have been described in ED (Bauer et al., 2017; Cardi et al., 2017; Cooper, 1997; Glashouwer et al., 2016; Smeets, Jansen, & Roefs, 2011) and BDD (Greenberg et al., 2014). Individuals with ED tend to interpret ambiguous negative situations as being related to their shape or weight (Bauer et al., 2017; Cooper, 1997; Cooper, Cohen-Tovée, Todd, Wells, & Tovée, 1997) and those with BDD interpret negative social cues as relating to their appearance (Buhlmann et al., 2002). Interventions targeting negative interpretation biases have had some success in BDD and AN (Summers & Cougle, 2016; Turton, Cardi, Treasure, & Hirsch, 2018).
Body image related negative interpretation bias in anorexia nervosa
2018, Behaviour Research and TherapyCitation Excerpt :Alternatively, participants are asked to select one out of several given interpretations or to rate how likely certain interpretations would be. As compared to healthy women, patients with eating disorders were found to more often attribute a negative outcome in such a scenario to negative aspects of their physique and to rate those interpretations as more likely (Cooper, 1997; Williamson, Perrin, Blouin, & Barbin, 2000). These findings suggest that eating disorders are associated with a tendency to interpret ambiguous situations in terms of subjective concerns about body weight and shape.
