The need for prospective treatment studies has been emphasized repeatedly in attempts to evaluate long-term outcome in anorexia nervosa (Hsu, 1980). Vigersky (1977), concluding the proceedings of the 1976 International Conference of Anorexia Nervosa Research, stated that only random allocation of patients to different treatment modalities within one center is a valid test of any treatment’s efficacy because of the problems of pre-selection of subjects at different centers.
