On the issue of the risk of eating disorders, due to psychological and sociocultural factors, body image and eating behavior of teenage and juvenil girls have been studied. The sample included them in diapason 12—24 years of Moscow non-clinical population. Empirically it was shown that 13% of such sample can be attributed to the risk group of eating disorders formation. It was shown, that age itself does not correlate with total score of the scale screening of eating behavior EAT-26, and that the pursuit of thinness and dieting craze is not caused by objective reasons associated with obesity.
