The present study examined disordered eating attitudes and behaviours among female university<br />

students in Beijing. 845 female university students between the age <strong>of</strong> 16 and 24 completed<br />

questionnaires assessing body concerns and disordered eating behaviours. Results showed that<br />

95.9% <strong>of</strong> these women believed that their self-worth would be enhanced if they become slimmer.<br />

21.3% <strong>of</strong> them experimented with dieting and 21.8% tried doing excessive exercise to lose weight<br />

before. Pathogenic compensatory weight loss behaviours were less common. These findings<br />

indicate that a significant number <strong>of</strong> female university students in Beijing are suffering from<br />

significant eating pathology.<br />

4138.72 A study <strong>of</strong> breast cancer patients’ mentation at different stages <strong>of</strong> the disease and<br />

countermeasures, Nan Zhang, China Tianjin TV Science & Educational Channel, China<br />

Objective: To study the mentation <strong>of</strong> breast cancer patients at different stages. Methods:<br />

Questionnaires and semi-structure interviews. Results: The major causes <strong>of</strong> these negative<br />

emotions focus on the patients’ uncertainty <strong>of</strong> the future, lack <strong>of</strong> understanding <strong>of</strong> the course <strong>of</strong> the<br />

disease and treatment, which have unfavorable effects upon recuperation and weaken the immune<br />

system. Conclusions: Corresponding measures or therapies are to be taken in view <strong>of</strong> the patients’<br />

psychological changes and their causes so as to help them turn the negative emotions into a<br />

positive one and will help mobilize body’s immune system and promote rehabilitation.<br />

sample: children between 10 and 12 years old, that attend to a public school. Instruments: CORIN<br />

a direct association with the presence <strong>of</strong> pathology.<br />
