โฆ Synopsis
Two hundred and ยฎfty-one Russian and 66 British female undergraduate students completed the Eating Disorder Inventory-2 (EDI-2, Garner, 1991a), and measurements of height and weight were taken. A comparison of the mean scores indicated that the Russians showed signiยฎcantly greater drive for thinness, perfectionism, maturity fears, asceticism, and impulsivity. The Russians also had a lower mean actual and desired Body Mass Index than the British women. Copyright *
