Abstract
Group psychotherapy for Anorexia Nervosa (AN) and Bulimia Nervosa (BN) patients may be a major therapeutic challenge. The cognitive-behavioural approach may seem promising and some important stages in the conduction of cognitive-behavioural group therapy in particular are discussed. Furthermore, some problems concerning inpatient versus outpatient groups are mentioned. Studies on group therapy that have appeared between 1984 and 1989 are briefly reviewed and some recommendations concerning the improvement of methodology for future studies are put forward.
