This paper overviews the issue of validity testing for eating disorder diagnoses.
A variety of different approaches to validity testing are reviewed, with an emphasis on clinically oriented validity testing for the DSM-V.
Validators of eating disorder diagnoses are likely to vary in terms of their scientific and clinical utility. Given that the DSM-V is a clinical document, validators which provide predictive clinical information will be most useful.
Clinicians and researchers alike may differ in their approach to validating eating disorder diagnoses depending on the purpose of the validation.
