“A person may have genetic liability for anorexia nervosa, but they also may have — from a different parent, for example — genes that buffer them from expression of the disorder,” she said.

The person’s environment might also provoke anorexia or prevent it.

Michael Strober, a clinical psychologist at the University of California at Los Angeles and editor of the International Journal of Eating Disorders, said conventional wisdom is that genetic factors do play a role in susceptibility.

This latest study, published in the March issue of the Archives of General Psychiatry, further confirms previous research, Strober said.

The study also found a link between anorexia and childhood “neuroticism,” which Bulik describes as “a tendency to be depressed or anxious, and also to be emotionally reactive.” “For some kids, insults come right off them like water off a duck’s back,” she said.

“These kids are more like emotional Velcro.
