Ciao, c'è qualche gentile esperto che mi traduce la seguente frase? Non riesco ad andare avanti... Coso significa ACTION IDENTIFICATION???? Vi scrivo il paragrafo in cui è inserita la frase incriminata...
"the functional value of reducing awareness in bulimia has been addressed by several
authors. Heatherton and Baumeister (1991) suggest that the sufferer experiences a temporary
cognitive narrowing or refocusing of attention, which may act to reduce negative
emotions, self-derogatory cognitions, or stress. The specific behavior of binging (particularly
its initiation) has been attributed to this voluntary shift to low self-awareness.
Baumeister (1990) and Heatherton and Baumeister (1991) use the concept of "action
identification(Vallacher & Wegner, 1985, 1987). A low level of action identification may
help to reduce awareness of the long-term consequences of binging, by making the
individual aware of the actions simply in terms of muscle movement and sensation[/I][/I][/I].
