This paper describes our experience in treating nearly 200 eating disordered patients ages eleven to thirty-five in five ongoing, open groups combining inpatients and outpatients. A limited outcome study of 121 patients who attended group regularly is presented. Guidelines are offered for group formation, referral to group, function of the therapists, group themes, and management of specific problems arising during the group. Our experience suggests broader applicability of group treatment for eating disorders than previously reported. The age and developmental level of the patient is a more important consideration in group placement than the nature or severity of their eating disorder. More vigorous and longer term follow-up studies are necessary to determine the lasting benefits of group psychotherapy for this patient population.

A significant portion of recent literature on Nietzsche is devoted to his metaethical views, both critical and positive. This article explores one aspect of his positive metaethics. The specific thesis defended is that Nietzsche is, or is plausibly cast as, a reasons internalist. This, very roughly, is the view that what an agent has normative reason to do depends on that agent's motivational repertoire. Section I sketches some of the metaethical terrain most relevant to Nietzsche's organising ethical project, his “revaluation of all values”, and lays out three “design-requirements” that an adequate account of Nietzsche's metaethical views must satisfy. Section II introduces the basic internalist position. Sections III–IV provide textual support for the internalist reading of Nietzsche, with Section V showing how it meets each of the design-requirements. Section VI concludes by showing how the internalist apparatus also illuminates Nietzsche's views about the process of revaluing values.
