EATING DISORDERS - MONITORING OF TEENAGE GIRLS AWARNESS IN THESE PROBLEMS
TICHÁ, Jana
In this bachelor´s thesis I am describing eating disorders. I have chosen this topic for its urgency and still increasing popularity of slenderness and excessive thinnes amoung young people. According to MKN{--}10 identiccaly with DSM-IV American psychiatric association include in the concept of eating disorders two clearest defined syndroms: anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Both of these defects are very similar, the following signs are charakteristic: intensive effort at slimming connected with restriction of taken energy and with oncreasing outlay of energy, being afraid of fatness, an extrem attention to food, own body and weight. Eating disorders mostly appear in adolescent girls and young women. Women are suffering from this defekt ten-times more than men. They ussualy have a chronic course, serious mental, somatic and social consequences. There is not a key risk factor and there seem to always occur a complex constellation of social, cultural and family influence factors, life events and personality features with developmental and biological factors. Food intake disorders prevention is still at a very low level in the Czech republic. However high attention is paid to prevention and dealing with overweight.
