Overview

Clinical study explores interoception's impact on eating disorders and borderline personality disorder in adolescents.

Key Points

  • This research investigates how interoception relates to restrictive eating disorders and borderline personality disorder in adolescents.
  • Sample of 75 female adolescents with restrictive eating disorders, including 21 with comorbid borderline personality disorder.
  • Measures of interoceptive awareness (MAIA-2), eating symptomatology (EDI-3), and alexithymia (TAS-20) were administered.
  • Patients with REDs and comorbid BPD showed lower scores on MAIA-2 Not-Distracting (p = 0.046) and Trusting (p = 0.023).
  • Lower MAIA-2 Trusting scores correlated with higher EDI-3 scores and total TAS-20 scores (p = 0.005).
  • Higher MAIA-2 Noticing scores were linked to higher EDI-3 Affective Problems scores (p = 0.003), while lower Not-Worrying scores related to interpersonal problems (p = 0.049).
