Prouty, Anne M.; Protinsky, Howard O.; Canady, Donna
Adolescence, v37 n146 p353-63 Sum 2002
Late adolescent college women (N=578) were surveyed regarding eating disorders. Participants found to have eating disorders were younger and more likely to be white, in a sorority, and Christian. Additionally, they were most likely to say that they would prefer a close friend to support them when dealing with disordered eating, followed by their parents and their significant other.
