There can be multiple factors that may influence unhealthy eating patterns amongst adolescents, such as peer influence or social media. In this study conducted on girls aged 14-17 (n=60) from one school, it was found through a self-reported questionnaire that the majority of the participants show symptoms of unhealthy eating patterns, and while the hypothesized factors are not so influential, the paper suggests the correlations between different eating behaviors that may possibly lead to future developments of disordered eating. Additionally, the paper looks at the limitations that come along when a study like this is conducted, and how other factors such as culture can play a large role in the study of behavior. Due to the self-reported nature of the data, the results are what the adolescents perceive to be influential factors. The difference between eating disorders and unhealthy eating patterns is discussed, because the two are not the same, and have to be differentiated in order to understand this paper.
