- 소개/요약This article examines whether mindfulness has a place in the treatment of anorexia nervosa (AN). A theoretical rationale for the inclusion of mindfulness strategies in the treatment of AN is provided. Empirical evidence supporting the use of mindfulness-based interventions in eating disorders (EDs) is considered drawing on the existing research in bulimia nervosa and binge ED before moving onto preliminary studies investigating the effects of mindfulness in the treatment of AN. Evidence is emerging that mindfulness-based interventions may be able to target some aspects of the underlying psychopathology in AN, eliciting changes in eating behaviour as well as cognitive-affective processing. This conclusion is compromised by significant methodological limitations of the extant studies. We discuss implications for treatment and further research on the potential use of mindfulness in the management of AN.
