    • Abstract:
      Marchetti and Sawrikar (International Journal of Eating Disorders, 2023) used the framework of the Common‐Sense Model of the Self‐Regulation to explore the perceptions and experiences of parents caring for individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) from a systematic review of the literature. The studies they reviewed delved into the subjective experiences of parents and considered the influence of emotional and cognitive representations of AN which were predominantly negative. Parents play a key role in all stages of the management of an eating disorder and so our commentary sets the findings into the wider context of eating disorder services. It is important that we continue to forge a collaborative approach with parents that addresses their needs and insights to improve our knowledge about, and services for people with eating disorders.
