    A study was made of mental rigidity in patients suffering from anorexia nervosa and their relatives using the Tomsk rigidity questionnaire. Based on examinations of 40 patients with anorexia nervosa, 22 of whom suffered from schizophrenia, 18 with borderline pathology (16 with an active method of weight losing, 24 with the bulimic variant of anorexia nervosa) and of 58 close relatives (mothers, fathers, sisters) the data were obtained on the level of mental rigidity. In the patients' group, it was found to depend to a greater measure on the stage of anorexia nervosa, whereas in the relatives, on the nosological appurtenance of the syndrome in their children.
