To investigate whether abnormal eating behaviors in young women could predict eating disorders after 4 years.
56 women were identified as presenting abnormal eating behaviors in a cross-sectional study (Eating Attitudes Test-26 and Edinburgh Bulimic Investigation Test). They were matched for age and neighborhood to two controls (n = 112). Four years later, they were re-assessed with the two screening questionnaires plus the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI 2.1).
Women with abnormal eating behaviors at baseline showed a high probability of presenting abnormal eating behaviors but it was not associated with eating disorders 4 years later. They were also at higher risk for obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and specific phobia.
Abnormal eating behaviors were related to the maintenance of the disturbed behavior over the years, and were associated with increased probability for psychiatric diagnoses.
调查年轻女性的异常饮食行为是否能够预测4年后的饮食失调情况。
在一项横断面研究中（饮食态度测试-26和爱丁堡贪食症调查测试），56名女性被认定存在异常饮食行为。根据年龄和居住区域，将她们与两名对照者（n = 112）进行匹配。4年后，使用这两份筛查问卷以及复合国际诊断访谈（CIDI 2.1）对她们进行重新评估。
基线时存在异常饮食行为的女性表现出出现异常饮食行为的高可能性，但这与4年后的饮食失调并无关联。她们患强迫症、创伤后应激障碍和特定恐惧症的风险也更高。
异常饮食行为与这些年紊乱行为的持续存在有关，并且与精神疾病诊断概率的增加相关。
