| The discursive production of the 'seif in the context of mental health care has Potential implications for how the subjects of Intervention come to understand and experience themselves. Eating disorders provide an illustrative example of the ways in which conceptualizations of the seif that structure mental health practices can be gendered, because they are mainly diagnosed in women and dominant explanations of their origins are feminized. This discourse analytic study examines the gendered nature of mental health workers' constructions of the eating-disordered seif through the psychological construct of 'identity', examining the dominant discourses implicated in the feminization of deficient identity, and addressing the implications of this construction for mental health practice. | |
