Abstract

Halvorson Sandy

Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions characterized by abnormal eating habits and a preoccupation with body weight or shape. These disorders, which include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, have significant behavioural aspects that play a crucial role in their development, maintenance, and treatment. This essay provides an overview of the behavioural aspects of eating disorders, focusing on their manifestation, underlying mechanisms, and therapeutic interventions.
