Abstract

Pressure to have a perfect image give rise to poor well-being, body dissatisfaction, and disordered eating.

Some personality traits, such as perfectionism, also contribute to disordered eating.

Because their standards cannot be met, perfectionists are susceptible to disordered eating in an attempt to to counteract their perceived flaws.
