Social relation problems of patients with anorexia nervosa
POSPÍCHALOVÁ, Štěpánka
Purpose of this work was to describe situation in social interaction of people with anorexia nervosa. I dealt with personal diaries of a patient who had anorexia nervosa and deeply examined one of the diaries. Personal thoughts desribed in diaries were analysed and resulted in picture of social interaction of the person. I also inteviewed father and mother who desribed retrospectively friends of the girl and relations between family members. Comparing these three sources I came up with answer on the basic research question: How patiens with anorexia nervosa make social relations. By doing this the objective of the work was accomplished. Results were summed up in 8 points. Each point clearly describes relation problem of the patient. Findings were compared to literature. The end of the work is devoted to the problem of eating disorders generally. Patient is a copybook example of anorexia nervosa. Her social interaction is complicated or even does not exist at all. Family relations are disturbed, the girl is looking for contacts outside family but these are unstable and short term only. Better results would be accomplished if sample of objects was bigger than only one patient. Following qualitative research there could be quantitative research which would show how interaction is problematic for patients with anorexia nervosa. Based on the results of my work larger interest should be dedicated to ties of patients with outside population.
