Psychology personal statement

Im trying to write my psychology personal statement, I have a few psychology theories and concepts I can mention however I'm wanting to find some more. What are some theories to read about (especially based around eating disorders and anxiety) and any book recommendations to read pre study? thanks!
Hello,

I would recommend the psychodynamic (e.g. https://doi.org/10.1002/9781118574089.ch20) or attachment theory (e.g. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.copsyc.2018.03.003) as they are prominent in contemporary psychology. I do not know any books on ED, unfortunately.

Good luck with your personal statement!

All the best,
