ABSTRACT
There is a recognised association between anorexia nervosa and stealing. Anorexics who steal are usually also bulimic. However, not all bulimic anorexics steal. The question of why some do and others do not is explored with respect to features of the illness and personal and social variables. Bulimic anorexics who stole differed from their non-stealing counterparts in older age at presentation and in terms of greater sexual activity. These and other findings are discussed with reference to clinical understanding and aetiological theories of other aberrant behavior displayed by the adolescent female.
