A review of the literature on the comorbidity of personality disorders and eating disorders suggested that there are unique DSM-IV Axis II diagnoses differentially associated with anorexia and bulimia. Moreover, other literature indicated that each personality disorder has a unique personality profile on the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R). Therefore, it was hypothesized that women with anorexia would have personality profiles on the NEO PI-R that correlate with patterns of avoidant and obsessive-compulsive personality disorders, while women with bulimia would have similar patterns of personality to borderline and histrionic personality disorder. A combination of these personality disorders would characterize participants with symptoms of both anorexia and bulimia. More specifically, on the NEO PI-R, anorexic women would have lower scores on the Extraversion scale than bulimic women. Anorexic women would have higher scores on the Conscientiousness scale than bulimic women. Participants with symptoms from both diagnostic categories would receive scores somewhere between the two groups on Extraversion and Conscientiousness. Fifty-three female participants over age 18 with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa or mixed type of anorexia and bulimia were obtained from local eating disorder ANAD Support Groups, psychotherapists, and a recruitment flyer. Each subject was administered the NEO PI-R and completed an eating disorder and demographic survey. Analysis of the data indicated that specific profile patterns for each of the three diagnoses do exist in the direction hypothesized. This suggests that individuals may be more prone to anorexia or bulimia depending on the premorbid personality constellations.
