1.1 Problematic Issue.

Topic: Eating disorders at the Liceo Cristiano Flavio Josefo is a topic that nobody talks about,

that probably many of the students suffer this.

Gap: This has never been talked in the past just because is not an important topic or maybe is not

so much relevant.

The evidence: The evidences that my group have seen is that some student got overweight or

some of them have signs of that don’t eat sufficient food as they should or as a “normal” teenager

should eat.

Deficiencies: Through polls we got answers that made us thought about how Eating disorders

affect at the efficiency in the students, and their mental health.

Audience: this investigation is for the teenagers in the school and for their parents to notice this

problem at the correct time

Significance of the study

This study is important because teenagers can be in position that the only thing that they

think is commit suicide just because they feel bad with their body, they feel

uncomfortable with themselves and we investigate this in order to change those thoughts

in the teenagers

Purpose of the study

To make aware parents and teachers that children and teenagers are prone to Eating

disorders every single day, because in social media exist “perfects bodies”and “perfect

life” that obviously that’s fake, because it doesn’t exist.

1.2 Research Question.

What are the main factors that cause a young person to suffer from eating disorders?

1.3 Justification.

Hypothesis

¿Gather Problem Information?

Normalize you’re eating patterns and reach a healthy weight.

Unhealthy habits for healthy habits.

Learn to contra what you eat and your mood.

Develop the ability to solve problems.

Explore healthy ways of coping.

Stressful situations.

¿Establish the Most Probable Solution?

The exact causes are unknown researchers believe that these conditions are caused by a

complex interplay of factors invading genetic biological, physiological, and social.

¿Formulate the Hypothesis?

Psychological and interpersonal, factors of anorexia and bulimia, treatment for anorexia,

Treatment for bulimia, prevention conclusions and bibliography.

1.4 Scoop, Delimitations and Limitations.

What are eating disorders in adolescence?

A variety of weight and food concerns experienced by teens are extremely manifested,

causing them to go to extremes when it comes to food and eating.

When are the signs of an eating disorder?

It is not unusual for teens to change their eating habits from time to time. Some

experiment with a different eating style (for example, a vegetarian diet) or go on a weight

loss diet. They may occasionally skip a meal. These changes often happen quickly. But

you have to watch their behavior and eating patterns carefully, so you can see the

difference between occasional dieting and a disorder.

There are several different signs and symptoms of eating disorders. Sometimes they are

obvious, but not always. Often times, a person will go to great lengths to hide this type of

disorder. We may be seeing a person with an eating disorder without knowing it

Why are eating disorders caused?

They are caused by bulimia and anorexia; these are the most common pair that is

observed in the youth of Santa Tecla with greater detail in adolescents.

Binge eating disorder

Overeating eating disorder is a disorder in which the person regularly (more than 3 times

a week) consumes large amounts of food in a short time (called binge eating). They feel

that they cannot control the urge to eat large amounts of food. As a result, they tend to be

overweight or obese.
What is Bulimia?

People with bulimia eat a lot of food at one time (binge eating) and then vomit it or use

laxatives to get the food out of the body (known as purging). They go to the point of

taking medications to diet, fast, exercise without eating, or go on extreme diets.

What is Anorexia?

People with anorexia are obsessed with being thin. They do not want to eat and are afraid

of gaining weight. They are likely to constantly worry about how many calories they eat

or how much fat is in their food. They can take diet pills, laxatives, or diuretics to lose

weight. They are likely to exercise too much. People with anorexia often think they are

fat, even when they are very thin. They can lose so much weight to the point that they can

look sick.

What causes eating disorders?

It can be related to stressful situations, feel the need to be perfect or be "in control." Some

people may react to the way their body changes during puberty. Society and media images

also put a lot of pressure on people to be thin.

What are eating disorders?

Anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder are the most common

eating disorders. Other eating disorders include rumination disorder and avoidance or

restriction of food intake disorder.

1.5 Research Objective.

Eating disorders of the youth of Fabio Josefo.

General objective.

know why the young people of the Liceo Flavio Josefo are so upset with their diet and

know what percentage of the Liceo is upset.

Specific objective.

Investigate the causes of the disorder of the youth of Flavio Josefo and if the feeding of

the cafeteria of said institution is causing problems in the feeding of the students.

2.1 Developing the Framework.

Eating disorders are behavioral conditions characterized by severe and persistent disturbance in

eating behaviors and associated distressing thoughts and emotions. They can be very serious

conditions affecting physical, psychological and social function. Types of eating disorders

include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, avoidant restrictive food intake

disorder, other specified feeding and eating disorder, pica and rumination disorder.

-Psychological Factors that Can Contribute to Eating Disorders:

1. Low self-esteem

2. Feelings of inadequacy or lack of control in life

3. Depression, anxiety, anger, stress or loneliness

-Social Factors that Can Contribute to Eating Disorders:

 1. Cultural pressures that glorify “thinness” or muscularity and place value on obtaining

the “perfect body”

2. Narrow definitions of beauty that include only women and men of specific body

weights and Shapes

-Interpersonal Factors that Can Contribute to Eating Disorders:

1. Troubled personal relationships

2. Difficulty expressing emotions and feelings

3. History of being teased or ridiculed based on size or weight

4. History of physical or sexual abuse

In 2015, the Academy for Eating Disorders (AED) collaborated with international patient,

advocacy, and parent organizations to craft the “Nine Truths About Eating Disorders.”

This document has been translated into over 30 languages and has been distributed

globally to replace outdated and erroneous stereotypes about eating disorders with factual

information. In this paper, we review the state of the science supporting the Nine Truths.

The literature supporting each of the Nine Truths was reviewed, summarized, and richly

annotated.

Most of the Nine Truths arise from well-established foundations in the scientific

literature. Additional evidence is required to further substantiate some of the assertions in

 the document. Future investigations are needed in all areas to deepen our understanding of

eating disorders, their causes, and their treatments.

The “Nine Truths About Eating Disorders” is a guiding document to accelerate global

dissemination of accurate and evidence-informed information about eating disorders.

-List the constructs and variables:

They do not have single causes that justify their appearance, but multiple vulnerability

factors that favor their emergence, especially during adolescence.

The risk factors are biological and genetic (serotonergic and dopaminergic system,

hormonal and endocrine system, temperament, gender), shared environmental (family

eating styles, advertising, family styles ...)

They can be non-shared or individual environmental (criticism of the physical, personality

traits, specific eating habits, dysfunctional neuropsychological profiles, stressors,

traumatic experiences).

-Review key social science theories:

Considering the clinical and empirical evidence of socio-cognitive difficulties in patients

with eating disorders, the present work aims to critically review the current state of

research on the theory of mind in anorexia and bulimia, evaluate if there is an affectation

of the same in these pathologies and analyze if there are indicators that it could be

considered an end phenotype. Method: A bibliographic search was carried out in the
 PubMed database using keywords related to the topic. The works were analyzed

according to inclusion / exclusion criteria. Results: Seven studies were identified on

patients with anorexia, one on patients with bulimia and four on both pathologies. Most of

the studies reported that patients with anorexia have altered theory of mind.

-Discuss the assumptions or propositions:

Patients with eating disorders have a higher incidence of affective disorders than the

general population, with a higher prevalence of major depression, both in anorexia

nervosa and in bulimia nervosa. Different studies have found that the incidence of

affective disturbance among anorexics ranges between 52% and 98%, depression being

the most common disorder; in bulimic patients these figures vary between 52% 83% and

for major depression between 38% and 63%. The occurrence of bipolar II affective

disorder among anorexics has been found from 9.7%, a 10-year follow-up, up to 56% of

hospitalized patients. In addition, a high relationship of mental disorders such as major

depression, BAD has been observed in the relatives of anorexic and bulimic patients.

- Our objective is important for the health of the young people of the Christian Flavio Josefo high

school, we want to help them to know a little more about what eating disorders are, also tell them

solutions and how they can avoid this eating disorder since they can harm in many ways, such as

for example : Physical, social and psychological function would also help by giving them

information about food with vitamins or a diet.

 Teach young people that eating disorder is not a game since many suffer from this disorder

physically, psychologically and that we can make it into the conscience of young people who take

care of themselves that they eat very well

When we say that we want them to eat well we mean a balanced diet such as eating a diet or

eating less of some things.

1. Normalize your eating patterns and reach a healthy weight.

2. Replace unhealthy habits with healthy ones.

3. Learn to control what you eat and your moods.

4. Develop the ability to solve problems.

5. Explore healthy ways to cope with stressful situations

1. know some methods to avoid some of the diseases already men we will give to know how

diets or we will say that not to consume

2. not having information about what an eating disorder is

3. we will give information about what it is, the consequences, and how to avoid it

2.2 Important factors.

1. How it benefits the young people of the Christian Flavio Josefo high school to know that it is an

eating disorder and how they can avoid this eating disorder since they can harm in many ways

2. It benefits that young people can enjoy their physical and mental abilities to put their body and

mind to work to the maximum without difficulties.

3. It will also help these young people to spread this information with more people so that they can

know what this disorder is about and can reduce the cases of this disorder since this information is

very important.
 4. Also reducing problems of diseases derived from eating disorders and making young people

aware of having a good diet for their good physical and mental development.

- Factors without importance

1. Problematic personal and family relationships

2. Difficulty expressing feelings and emotions

3. Being teased or ridiculed based no their height or weight

4. History of physical and sexual abuse

Studies that indicate that you send me abnormal in certain chemical components

In the brain predispose some people to do subtitling perfectionism compulsive behavior and

thoughts which people are vulnerable to suffering antes eating disorder.

Genetics and biology some people may be genetically at risk for eating disorders.

Psychological and emotional health people with eating disorder may have physiological and

emotional factors that contribute to the disorder.

1. The brain predisposes some people to anxiety compulsive thinking perfectionism and

Behavior.

2. They tend to do have unrealistic expectations of themselves and other people have no

sense of identity.

3. People with inflexible and ineffective overprotective families in solving problems have

these disorders.

4. Communication measures associate the good with artistic beauty and the bad with

physical imperfection.

5.1 Conclusions.

Después de realizar la investigación “Trastornos de la conducta alimentaria” se concluye lo

siguiente:

 El objetivo específico número 2 dice "To analyze whether the socioeconomic level

influences eating habit" y según el análisis realizado en la encuesta se llega a la

conclusión que el la hipótesis direccional "The socioeconomic level influences eating

habits" no se cumple y en cambio se cumple su hipótesis nula "The Socioeconomic level

Habits socioeconomic level is irrelevant in eating disorders" y esto se debe a que la

mayoría de las personas deciden que van a comer independientemente de su nivel

socioeconómico y la mayoría decide llevar su propia comida a la institución ya que ellos

saben que es lo que les hace mas bien y la mayoría afirmo que no consume ningún tipo de

comida chatarra como puede ser hamburguesas, pizza, snacks, gaseosas, jugos artificiales

a pesar de que pueden ser mas baratos que sus contrapartes saludables (Vegetales, Fruta y

carnes bajas en grasas) esto me lleva a pensar de que efectivamente el nivel

socioeconómico no afecta mucho a los hábitos alimenticios.

 El objetivo específico número 1 dice: “to know the diseases in the relation to bad eating

habits” y segun el analisis realizado en la encuesta se llega a la conclucion de que la

hipotesis “bad eating habits cause diseases” se cumple, ya que esto se debe a que la

mayoría de las personas deciden la hora de ingerir sus alimentos por lo cual se dan estas

enfermedades, aunque la mayoría de las personas si ingeren sus alimentos a la hora

correcta ya que la mayoría afirmo que si no come a la hora tiende a tener dolores

estomacales, la mayoría afirmo que consume sus alimentos a la hora correcta.

5.2 Recomendations.

 Director

Dar charlas a los estudiantes sobre psicología y trastornos psicológicos un médico puede

reforzar los mensajes de salud.

Recodarle al estudiante que debe comer bien haciendo carteles con consejos sobre

alimentación que luego cuelgan en el comedor.

Mejorar la comida del chalet, vendiendo cosas saludables y variadas. No vender alimentos

con azúcar (sodas, jugos artificiales) ni con grasas trans (chicharras, churros) bajar el

precio de la comida y hacerlo más accesible al estudiante.

 Padres

Ámbito psicológico. Favorecer la construcción de una autoestima adecuada, Evitar poner

un excesivo énfasis en el peso y la figura, evitar estereotipos de cuerpos perfectos,

Informar a los hijos que no es recomendable hacer dietas en la etapa de crecimiento,

porque muchas de ellas son contraproducentes.

Padres. Escucha a tu hijo. Para que sus hijos tengan una mejor alimentación en casa,

podría establecer un horario de comida para comer en familia, Evitar que los jóvenes

realicen dietas agresivas, porque éstas suelen ser el punto de entrada a los trastornos

alimentarios, servir variedad de alimentos que le gusten al estudiante, darle un buen

 ejemplo para seguir con una dieta nutritiva, evitar las peleas por la comida. Frente a la

evidencia de dietas inapropiadas, acudir con ayuda profesional. Estar atentos a los sitios

de Internet que visitan las adolescentes.

En el colegio, ponerle un refrigerio saludable y variado (comprar refrigerio es más

económico y que le sustente en todo el día y ponerle una botella de agua.

 Alumnos

Psicológicamente. Acude a ayuda profesional si es necesario. Habla con tus padres acerca

de cómo te sientes. Normalizar tus patrones de alimentación y llegar a un peso saludable

según tu altura y edad. Reemplazar los hábitos poco saludables por hábitos saludables.

Aprender a controlar lo que comes y tus estados de ánimo.

Colegio. Preparar el almuerzo del colegio un día antes, haz una lista de comidas que te

gustaría llevar al colegio, come el desayuno todas las mañanas, si tus padres te dan dinero

comprar algo que te llene y te sustente. Reflexione sobre sus hábitos de alimentación,

tanto buenos como malos, así como en las cosas que desencadenan que coma un poco

saludable.
