Presented by Dr. Anna Bardone-Cone, PhD, FAED
Anna Bardone-Cone, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the head of the Bardone-Cone lab. Her research focuses on eating disorders and body image, specifically with regard to defining eating disorder recovery, identifying and testing pathways to disordered eating (with particular interest in the role played by psychosocial variables such as perfectionism, self-efficacy, social comparison, and stress), and examining cultural, familial, and media factors related to disordered eating and body image.
This talk began with a recap of eating disorder pathology and diagnosis, defining different types of eating disorders and the difference between disordered eating and an eating disorder. Dr. Bardone-Cone then moved on into a nuanced discussion of the unique considerations affecting eating disorder pathology, diagnosis, and treatment in Black women, men, and South Asian populations, including the current and future directions of research in the Bardone-Cone lab. This presentation concludes with resources on how to help people in your life who may be struggling with an eating disorder, before moving into a Q&A session.
