Yet, the precise mechanisms underpinning this link have remained elusive. From a psychopathological perspective, this article proposes that both self-objectification and eating disorders can be seen as manifestations of self-rumination (repetitive, negative self-focus). While self-objectification involves psychological rumination, eating disorders encompass a complex interplay of psychological and physical (bodily) rumination. In addition, at the neural level, the underlying neural foundations underlying such self-rumination are likely rooted in brain activity and connectivity within networks associated with self-reference, cognitive control, and body perception. Collectively, these perspectives shed light on the psychopathological and neural processes that links self-objectification to the onset of eating disorders.","PeriodicalId":93496,"journal":{"name":"Psychoradiology","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140420868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
