This study examined the degree of misreport in weight, height, and BMI among overweight adults (n = 392) with binge eating disorder (BED) and tested whether the degree of misreport was associated with eating disorder psychopathology and psychological variables. Male (n = 97) and female (n = 295) participants self-reported height and weight, and were subsequently measured by clinic staff. Participants also completed a series of diagnostic interviews and self-report assessments. Discrepancies between self-reported and measured values were modest. The degree of misreport for weight, height, and BMI was not related to eating disorder features, depression, and self-esteem. Overall, the errors in self-reported weight and height by overweight patients with BED were very slight. The degree of discrepancy between self-reported and measured values was not related to eating disorder or psychological features, suggesting that such data are not biased or systematically related to individual differences in overweight patients with BED.
本研究考察了暴食障碍（BED）超重成年人（n = 392）在体重、身高和 BMI 方面的报告偏倚程度，并检验了报告偏倚程度是否与饮食障碍病理和心理变量相关。男性（n = 97）和女性（n = 295）参与者自我报告身高和体重，并随后由临床工作人员进行测量。参与者还完成了一系列诊断访谈和自我报告评估。自我报告值与测量值之间的差异不大。体重、身高和 BMI 的报告偏倚程度与饮食障碍特征、抑郁和自尊无关。总的来说，BED 超重患者自我报告的体重和身高的误差非常小。自我报告值与测量值之间的差异程度与饮食障碍或心理特征无关，这表明此类数据没有偏差，也与 BED 超重患者的个体差异没有系统关联。
