“…The results of an another longitudinal study indicate that there is a specific temporal relationship between traits and PDs, whereby changes in the personality traits lead to subsequent changes in the disorder [60] . Bulik et al [61] could show that self-directedness scores, but not PD symptoms, predict rapid and sustained response to cognitive behavior therapy. These findings suggest that modifying personality traits is an important component of treating PDs.…”

This study examined correlations of borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptoms with scales from Cloninger’s psychobiological model taking gender and psychiatric comorbidity into consideration. Inpatients with BPD (n = 202) were compared to several control groups including psychiatrically healthy persons (n = 327), subjects with affective disorders (n = 46), alcohol use disorders (n = 47), cluster C personality disorders (n = 23) and antisocial personality disorder (n = 25). The results indicate that only males with BPD presented an ‘explosive’ temperament suggested by Cloninger, with simultaneously high levels of novelty seeking and harm avoidance. In contrast, women with BPD were characterized by high levels of harm avoidance, but not novelty seeking. Regarding temperament and character dimensions our analyses suggest that patients with BPD could be characterized, in particular, by a combination of high harm avoidance and very low self-directedness. The specific temperament configuration of BPD postulated by Cloninger’s psychobiological model could only partially be supported. The results provide support for the importance of controlling for gender effects when investigating the applicability of dimensional models with respect to personality disorders.

“…Perhaps the best example is the development of guided cognitive behavioral self-help. 36 This is a brief adaptation of full-scale CBT for those eating disorders characterized by binge eating. The intervention typically consists of eight to ten 20-minute sessions in which the ''therapist'' or provider oversees the patient's implementation of a self-help program (usually provided in the form of a self-help book).…”

Treatment researchers expend their efforts identifying effective treatments, and for whom and how they work, but there are matters over and above these that are of concern when it comes to dissemination and implementation. These include the clinical range of the interventions concerned, the ease with which they can be learned, and their mode of delivery. It is these three topics, as they apply to the psychological treatment of eating disorders, that form the focus of this article. Alongside these considerations, we discuss how modern technology has the potential to transform both treatment and training. V

“…To date, CBT-bulimia nervosa has shown the greatest clinical utility in reducing many of the core features associated with bulimia nervosa, including binge eating, purging, dietary restraint, and other eating-attitude-related changes (Agras et al, 2000;Bailer et al, 2004;Bulik, Sullivan, Carter, McIntosh, & Joyce, 1998;Wilson & Shafran, 2005). Other studies examining the combination of CBT and medications, such as fluoxetine and desipramine, suggest that combined interventions may confer an additive benefit (Agras et al, 1992;Walsh, Fairburn, Mickley, Sysko, & Parides, 2004).…”

The mission of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is to reduce the burden of mental and behavioral disorders through research, and eating disorders embody an important fraction of this burden. Although past and current research has provided important knowledge regarding the etiology, classification, pathophysiology, and treatment of the eating disorders, there are still significant challenges that need to be addressed. This article briefly describes some of these challenges, recent NIMH-supported research and research-related activities directed at addressing these challenges, and approaches and areas of research that hold promise for furthering the understanding and treatment of eating disorders.
