Brotsky and Giles' paper, "Inside the 'Pro-Ana' Community: A Covert Participation Observation," examines the online community of individuals who promote and support anorexia nervosa, or "pro-ana." The research uses covert participant observation to study this community, revealing its members' attitudes towards eating disorders, their support for one another, and their strategies for maintaining their conditions.
