Explanations of the origin of eating disorders range from biological theory, which studies metabolic, hormonal, and genetic influences, to cognitive theory, which emphasizes illogical thought processes. Although these theories have components that help explain the etiology of eating disorders, systems theory takes into consideration the significance of family in the development of eating disorders. The authors propose that systems theory coupled with family therapy can be successful in the treatment of bulimia.
