Abstract

Anorexia nervosa psihopatološki je entitet s dugom poviješću proučavanja kliničke slike
same bolesti, ali i načina liječenja. Kao i u većini psihičkih bolesti, snažan percipitirajući
čimbenik u razvoju anoreksije nervoze izloženost je teškim životnim nedaćama. Uspješnost
prilagodbe na životne situacije predstavlja psihološku otpornost pojedinca te je potencijalno
važan čimbenik u prevenciji i liječenju psihičkih bolesti. Cilj istraživanja je bio ispitati
povezanost psihološke otpornosti i depresije s prisutnošću i intenzitetom simptoma anoreksije
te ispitati prirodu odnosa ovih varijabli. Istraživanje je provedeno na 68 sudionica pri čemu je
klinička skupina od 31 osobe oboljele od anoreksije nervoze ekvivalentno uparena s
kontrolnom skupinom prema relevantnim sociodemografskim čimbenicima. Primijenjeni su
struktuirani upitnik socio-demografskih podataka, podaci o tretmanu i indeks tjelesne mase,
EDI-2, CD-RISC i BDI-II. U istraživanju je utvrđeno da osobe oboljele od anoreksije imaju
viši intenzitet depresivnosti te značajno nižu psihološku otpornost u odnosu na kontrolnu
skupinu. Osobe koje doživljavaju jači intezitet simptoma poremećaja hranjenja imaju nižu
psihološku otpornost. Dodatno, rezultati ukazuju na to da simptom poremećaja hranjenja:
neučinkovitost predstavljaja najsnažniji negativni prediktor psihološke otpornosti osoba
oboljelih od anorkesije.

Abstract (english)

Anorexia nervosa is a psychopathological entity with a long history of studying the clinical
picture of the disease itself, but also the methods of treatment. As with most mental illnesses,
a strong perceiving factor in the development of anorexia nervosa is exposure to severe life
adversities. The success of adaptation to life situations represents the psychological resilience
of the individual and is a potentially important factor in the prevention and treatment of
mental illness. The aim of the study was to examine the association of psychological
resistance and depression with the presence and intensity of anorexia symptoms, and to
examine the nature of the relationship between these variables. The study was conducted on
68 participants where the clinical group of 31 people with anorexia nervosa was equivalently
matched to the control group according to relevant sociodemographic factors. A structured
questionnaire of socio-demographic data, treatment data and body mass index, EDI-2, CDRISC and BDI-II were applied. The study found that people with anorexia have a higher
intensity of depression and significantly lower psychological resistance compared to the
control group. People who experience a stronger intensity of eating disorder symptoms have
lower psychological resilience. In addition, the results indicate that symptom of eating
disorders: ineffectiveness is the strongest negative predictors of psychological resistance in
people with anorexia.
