Descrição: Eating disorders are disorders in eating or eating-related behavior that cause changes in the consumption or absorption of food, compromising the physical and psychological health of individuals. Diagnostic criteria for eating disorders are described: pica, rumination disorder, restrictive eating disorder, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. Understanding that eating disorders are psychopathologies with a high degree of mortality, the objective of this study was to describe the factors that precede their involvement, from the perspective of Modeling Structural Equations (SEM). Seven etiological models for eating disorders have been described. A relevant aspect that should be highlighted is the sociocultural influence (parents, friends and media) on the internalization of body ideals, which is an essential variable for the onset of eating disorders.
