Abstrakt: Herein, an effort is made to clarify and define the characteristics of nonorganic or psychogenic vomiting. Detailed discussion of the clinical and psychological aspects of the disorders comprising this syndrome is presented. The role of anxiety in several eating disorders is stressed. Finally, the central role of the gastroenterologist rather than the psychiatrist is emphasized in treating these disorders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
