This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the psychological determinants of eating behavior disorders and their patterns of manifestation. The study is based on theoretical analysis and highlights the emotional, cognitive, personality-related, and social factors of eating disorders. It also explores how these determinants manifest at behavioral, emotional, and social levels. The results indicate that eating disorders are a multifactorial psychological phenomenon in which an individual’s internal psychological processes play a decisive role in their development.
