[Overweight and obesity in Chilean women. A multivariate characterization based on psychophysiologic indicators].
This paper presents a reanalysis of previously collected data using multivariate statistical methods. Aside from confirming the discrimination between obese, and normal-weight women through psychometric indicators including a personality evaluation, and a verbal affective expression assessment, the power of multivariate methods for improving diagnosis is illustrated.
