Child obesity, Emotional mistreatmentAbstract
In the last years (1991-1994) some publications about the relationship between child abuse and obesity have appeared as a result jrom confusion in thefeeding behavior in adults. Our working hypothesis is to find signslsymptoms of Psychological mistreatment as one of the causes of exogen obesity in children. To do this we use the "lnventary Jor the Detection of Mistreatment in the Child by de Santos, Massé and Rodríguez-Sacristán. The sample is composed by an experimental group (thirty exogen obese children seen in our unit) and two control groups. The first of them, Jormed by thirty children with visual affective confusion in the same unit and the second, Jormed by thirty children hospitalized Jor pediatric non-pshychosomatic problems. The results are being discussed and analyzed.
