Supplementary Material for: Autobiographical memory in feeding and eating disorders: a systematic review

Introduction: Prominent eating disorders (EDs) theories identify a critical relationship between body and self. One of the ways to study this relationship is through autobiographical memories (AMs). The present review aims to evaluate the studies that investigated AM in patients with EDs.
Methods: A search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus databases was performed to identify relevant articles. Of the 57113 studies found, 25016 were not duplicated. After screening, 27 articles were included.
Results: The studies had some methodological flaws: none of the articles was a randomized control trial and the sample sizes were small. Nevertheless, important evidence emerged because all studies showed that patients with EDs have impaired AM function. This is because the way patients with EDs remember and define themselves is through an allocentric perspective associated with the gazes of others whose role has an impact on AM, body shape, and self.
Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first systematic review to examine AM in patients with EDs. Future research is needed in EDs to expand knowledge about the relationship between body and self.

引言：主流进食障碍（eating disorders, EDs）理论指出，躯体与自我之间存在至关重要的关联。探究这一关联的途径之一便是自传体记忆（autobiographical memories, AMs）。本综述旨在评估针对进食障碍患者自传体记忆开展的相关研究。
方法：本研究检索了PubMed、ScienceDirect及Scopus数据库以筛选相关文献。在检出的57113项研究中，25016项不存在重复。经筛选后，最终纳入27篇文献。
结果：现有研究存在若干方法学缺陷：无一项研究采用随机对照试验设计，且样本量普遍偏小。尽管如此，研究仍得出了具有重要意义的证据——所有纳入研究均显示，进食障碍患者的自传体记忆功能存在受损。究其根源，进食障碍患者记忆与界定自我的方式，依托于一种与他人注视相关的异我视角（allocentric perspective），而他人注视的作用会对自传体记忆、躯体形态及自我认知产生影响。
结论：据我们所知，本综述是首个针对进食障碍患者自传体记忆展开探讨的系统综述。未来仍需开展相关研究，以深化对进食障碍领域中躯体与自我关联的认知。
