Symbolic Representation of Psychological States in the Dreams of Women with Eating Disorders.
Brink, Susan M.; And Others
Canadian Journal of Counselling, v29 n4 p332-44 Oct 1995
Compares the dream content of 12 eating-disordered and 11 non-eating-disordered women. Results showed significant links in the dreams of the eating-disordered group to a sense of ineffectiveness, self-hate, a sense of being controlled or judged by others, an inability to self-nourish, and negative emotions. There were no significant pairings in the non-eating-disordered group. (JPS)
