This book describes three programs of research concerned with the risk of differing psychobiological disorders in college women -- anorexia nervosa, menstrual dysfunction, and Type A vulnerability to cardiovascular problems. The research was based on a new approach to developmental psychopathology in which risk factors for future disorder were isolated within a relevant normal population.
