Aspects of Childhood Physical Punishment and Family Environment Correlates in Bulimia Nervosa.
Rorty, Marcia; And Others
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v19 n6 p659-67 Jun 1995
This study compared childhood parental physical punishment among 80 women with and 40 women without a lifetime history of bulimia nervosa. Although the women with bulimia reported more and harsher physical punishment than the control group, they did not differ in the extent to which they believed the punishment was deserved or whether they were "physically abused."
