Where this comes from

Abstract

The eating disorders remain perplexing treatment challenges. These disorders are best understood through the clustering of their symptoms and with a multidimensional model. Treatment must follow from the observed symptoms and cannot always follow a standardized course as is done in other psychiatric disorders. CBT is the most efficacious treatment for both AN and BN.
