Abstract
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre los niveles de
estrés percibido y los estilos de afrontamiento predominantes en una muestra de
pacientes con Bulimia Nerviosa. Con dicho fin, se aplicó el Inventario de Trastornos de la
Conducta Alimentaria, el Cuestionario de Respuesta al Estrés y el Cuestionario de Estilos
de Afrontamiento a 30 pacientes con BN y 30 personas sin el trastorno. Se encontraron
diferencias significativas en los niveles de estrés, siendo este mayor en el grupo clínico. Al
interior de este se observaron diferencias de acuerdo a la edad y al tiempo de
enfermedad. En cuanto afrontamiento, se hallaron diferencias significativas en ambos
grupos en el uso de los estilos centrado en el problema y evitativo. Al interior del grupo
clínico, se encontraron diferencias de acuerdo a la comorbilidad. Finalmente se obtuvieron
correlaciones significativas medianas y grandes entre la BN, el estrés y el afrontamiento.
The aim of this study was to identify the association between stress levels and coping styles in a sample of patients with Bulimia Nervosa. Two groups conformed by 30 patients and 30 non-patients were assessed using the Eating Disorders Inventory (EDI-2), the Stress Response Questionnaire and the Coping Estimation Inventory. Stress levels were significantly greater in the clinical group. Within the clinical group, differences were observed according to age and time course of illness. In terms of coping, significant differences were found in the use of problem-focused and avoidant coping between the groups. Among the clinical group, differences in coping were obtained according to comorbidity. Finally, significant correlations were found between BN symptoms, stress and coping.
