clinical psychological and personality correlates of Asceticism in anorexia nervosa from saint anorexia to pathologic perfectionism
Transcultural Psychiatry, 2006Co-Authors: Secondo Fassino, Andrea Piero, Carla Gramaglia, Giovanni Abbate Daga, M Gandione, Giovanni Giacomo Rovera, Goffredo BartocciAbstract:This study investigated the personality and clinical correlates of Asceticism in 154 anorectic patients. Multiple linear regression models showed that Asceticism was related to angry temperament, high control over anger, perfectionism, maturity fears, and number of vomiting episodes per week. These results suggest that the self-discipline and hypercontrol of anorectic patients are related to a temperament prone to angry feelings in subjects with a fear of becoming adult and with a trait of pathologic perfectionism.

Scripture and Asceticism
The Oxford Handbook of Early Christian Biblical Interpretation, 2019Co-Authors: Elizabeth A ClarkAbstract:This chapter surveys some interpretative techniques employed by early Christian writers to encourage ascetic renunciation, especially renunciation of marriage and reproduction. These authors, gearing their messages to different audiences, sought to mine passages from both the Old Testament and the New to advance their cause. By use of different exegetical techniques (e.g. intertextual exegesis; appeal to ‘the difference in times’; ‘close reading’), they wrested ascetic meaning from often-recalcitrant scriptural passages. The chapter concludes with some examples of ascetic exegesis from Syrian authors.

contested bodies early christian Asceticism and nineteenth century polemics
Journal of Early Christian Studies, 2009Co-Authors: Elizabeth A ClarkAbstract:This essay explores how two nineteenth-century writers who opposed the asceticizing aspects of the Oxford Movement and Roman Catholicism appealed to patristic writings. Anglican Isaac Taylor and Episcopalian Arthur Cleveland Coxe employed different rhetorical strategies: Taylor attempted to shock unsuspecting Christians about the "true" nature of Tractarian devotion to patristic Christianity, while Coxe, conversely, sought to explain away the Asceticism promoted by the Fathers and align early Christianity with nineteenth-century domesticity. Coxe, American editor of the Ante-Nicene Fathers series, advanced his cause by adding anti-Catholic footnotes and "elucidations" to the Fathers' writings.

an examination of the internal consistency and factor structure of the eating disorder inventory 2 in a clinical sample
International Journal of Eating Disorders, 1994Co-Authors: Kathleen P Eberenz, David H GleavesAbstract:We examined the internal consistency and factor structure of the newly revised version of the Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI), with particular emphasis on the examination of the three new provisional scales: Asceticism, Impulse Regulation, and Social Insecurity. Subjects were 300 women who were seeking treatment at a residential treatment facility for women with eating disorders. Cronbach's alphas ranged from .80 to .91 for the eight original scales whereas coefficients for the three new scales were all less than .80, the criterion stated as being necessary for inclusion in the test. Item-total correlations were also substantially lower for the three new scales. The results of principal components analyses with orthogonal rotation supported the factor structure of the original 64-item EDI, but not the three additional scales
