✦ Synopsis

This study characterizes the early family experiences of 30 women with bulimia nervosa and 15 women with major depression, and compares them with I00 women controls, with particular emphasis placed on parental rearing practices, family conflict resolution, sexual mistreatment, problematic childhood indicators, and childhood separation experiences. There Is, little research on these patient populations in relation to their childhood experiences, and thus, It is difficult to identify markers for women at risk for these disorders. The flndinfls show that there are significant differences between the experiences these women had growing up and those of the control group, and a profile of children at risk based upon the study indicators is presented.
