Summary: | El objetivo general de la presente investigación fue establecer la relación entre la percepción de la función parental de adolescentes escolares y la presencia de características tanto psicológicas como comportamentales asociadas al riesgo de desarrollar trastornos alimenticios. El universo de estudio fue conformado por estudiantes escolares, tanto hombres como mujeres que cursan de segundo a tercer grado de secundaria de un colegio particular de Lima. Se empleó el Inventario de Trastornos de la Conducta Alimentaria EDI-2 (Garner, 1998), así como la prueba “Adolescent Family Process” (AFP), instrumento diseñado por Vazsonyi, Hibbert, y Snider en el 2003.
