The purpose of this study was to systematically review the reliability of scores on the Eating Disorder Examination (EDE) and the Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) and to examine the validity of their use as measures of eating disorder symptoms.
Articles describing the psychometric properties of the EDE and EDE-Q were identified in a systematic search of major computer databases and a review of reference lists. Articles were selected based on a priori inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Fifteen studies were identified that examined the psychometrics of the EDE, whereas 10 studies were found that examined the psychometrics of the EDE-Q.
Both instruments demonstrated reliability of scores. There is evidence that scores on the EDE and EDE-Q correlate with scores on measures of similar constructs and support for using the instruments to distinguish between cases and non-cases. Additional research is needed to broaden the generalizability of the findings.
本研究旨在系统回顾 Eating Disorder Examination(EDE)和 Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire(EDE-Q)评分的可靠性,并检验其作为饮食障碍症状测量工具的有效性。
通过对主要计算机数据库的系统检索和对参考文献列表的回顾,确定了描述 EDE 和 EDE-Q 心理测量特性的文章。根据事先确定的纳入和排除标准选择文章。
确定了 15 项研究,这些研究检验了 EDE 的心理测量特性,而发现了 10 项研究检验了 EDE-Q 的心理测量特性。
两种工具的评分均具有可靠性。有证据表明,EDE 和 EDE-Q 的分数与类似结构的测量分数相关,并且支持使用这些工具来区分病例和非病例。需要进一步的研究来扩大研究结果的普遍性。
