CORCOS, Maurice. Anorexic teenagers and their families: a disaffiliation by abstinence. Estilos clin. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.1, pp. 27-42. ISSN 1415-7128.  http://dx.doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-1624.v20i1p27-42.

At the intersection betweenof individual psychology, family and social relationships and the medical field, eating disorders offer a model of the determinants that develop preferably in teenagers and female subjects. This article resumes the main discussions on eating behaviors, articulating them to the neurobiological mechanisms that offer risk of melancholic depression. A central hypothesis will be raised: the failure of the maternal function, and, particularly, in the investment in the autonomous, living and erotic body of the children. This failure would not favor a sufficiently good integration of the feminine in the subject and would participate in the advent of a sadomasochistic organization fastening it to child objects.

Palavras-chave : eating disorder; adolescence; body-psyche cleavage; failure of maternal function; feminine integration.
