Abstract :
Given the prevalence of eating disorders among adolescents, identifying adjustable factors that lead to healthy eating behavior can be an important issue. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the function of retrospective and prospective memory and the role of emotional disorder among adolescent girls with mental anorexia, overweight and normal weight. The target population included all 13-18 year-old girls in Shiraz, included a sample of 15 people in each group by clustering method from 4 schools and based on students' scores in the nutrition attitude questionnaire in the relevant groups. To gather information, Smith et al.'s (2000) prospective and retrospective memory questionnaire and the standard questionnaire of Carner's et al.'s (1979) attitude and the difficult questionnaire for regulating the excitement of Gratz and Romer (2004) were used. One-way and follow-up analysis of variance tests were used to investigate the differences between the means. The findings show that the average performance of retrospective memory in the normal group is significantly different from the overweight and anorexia nervosa group(P<./001).. There was also a significant difference between the groups studied in the performance of prospective memory and emotional disorder(P<./001).. Overweight and anorexia nervosa groups differed significantly from normal group in the indicators of prospective, retrospective, and emotional memory function. So paying attention to these issues can play an important role in the pathology of eating disorders.
